DCU sounds dreadful to deal with. Uggghh! Hope you get it all resolved 12!Thanks baller4life. Just a minor speed bump in the road. One monkey don't stop no show.
And that's all it is. Just a temporary experience that can easily be made up for.
This experience and a few others who have posted about the strange happenings with that CU is good heads up for everyone else.
Appreciate sharing this so others can beware.
Agreed, sharing of information. Others can make an informed decision to skip or move forward with DCU.

It's an opinion like your's. We all have different opinions and experiences. You'reright they do have excellent car rates.

I agree. I have had good experiences so far as well. I do have a 1.74% on my auto loan and also have their Platinum Card at 8.75%. They usually won't issue a second card for 12 months of showing a good history on the first.
I have friends that have had bad experiences with DCU as well. So I'm not surprised at what happened to the OP.
Received a call from DCU stating that they did a fraud review of my account because I had so much available credit that was not in use. Said they wanted to make sure it was me who actually applied. I'm not sure if I can go for that considering that they never asked me for any more documentation. To make a long story short, the card had previously been mailed out and the limit has been restored. The 2nd card that I applied for will stay denied due to the amount of credit available and new accounts which is the real reason for the freeze IMO.

Haha I guess your massive portfolio freaked them out. I am glad you were able to keep one of the cards!
Thanks Baller. It was the portfolio, not a fraud issue. To give them credit, they did apologize for the situation. In the grand scheme of things, $7,500 will not make or break me. They're also taking off one of the inq's.

Lol, that's an understatement, that comment gave me a good laugh into the long holiday weekend.
Congrats 12njoy, enjoy!

Congratulations! I'm glad it worked out for you.
That's great 12! I'm glad it worked out.
