Frontier Airline Approved Without Social Number

[Anonymous]

Hello Everyone- I have always reviewed this forum for all information related to credit but today decided to create an account because I had the craziest thing happen.... While traveling with family the airline personel said if you fill out a credit card application you could get 60,000 bonus points. Being funny I filled out the application for the credit card but omitted my social security number----thinking maybe they would give me the points because I fly with them so much.....lol. So, I was quite amazed and dumfounded when I checked my email today and it said I had been approved for a Frontier Airline card with a SL of $6,000. Is it normal for banks to approve credit cards without social security numbers? Only information provided was name, address, birthdate, signature, etc.......

My current scores are EQ 658, Transunion 678, Experian 654.

@Anonymous Congrats!  Just wondering, did you get a HP from any of the credit bureaus by any chance?

Just checked my Transunion and they did indeed pull my credit report. Again, I am still super shocked that they could match me to my credit report without a social security number. Truly a lesson learned.
