JCrew Approval

WFNNB has been showing me a lot of love lately...finally got a SP preapproval for the one card I really wanted since I shop there frequently.

 

Approved for $500.

 

WFNNB app "spree" is done....since December I've acquired:

 

  • Express: $1,000
  • KingSize: $350
  • Victoria's: $500
  • J Crew: $500

Available credit: $2,350.00

 

Time to watch all of these grow at the 9-month mark. Next Hard apps will be for the Discover It this summer and perhaps a Chase card in the fall.

Re: JCrew Approval

Arrgh congratulations man, I've been trying to get my hands on the JCrew card but the damn popup wont arise. I got the EXPRESS Next Credit card using the method with my address. I typed the same home address that I had used for Express at JCrew's website, I get nothing. Do they pull from a different bureau possibly? Is it possible to check what address each bureau has on file for me, without pulling my reports?

Rebuilding...been out of the game for a minute. Now, after suffering I'm back with greater wisdom. Scores: Currently @ around 6 teens to 20's, across all three EQ,TU, EX

It took a while for it to show up for me. I first got the Express Card in December, and then the King Size and Vicky's. It SP'd EQ...you can initate a dispute on EQ's website and you can view the report contents there as well as view the SP's.

 

What's funny is that the SP for JCrew happened the day after my new accounts reported...so maybe they wanted to see some open WFNNB tradelines first? I don't quite get it but hey....whatever works.

Re: JCrew Approval

I was reading this thread and decided to get on the J.Crew website to try to see if I would get the popup......I DID! This means something about my credit because I've been trying this trick before on J.Crew and it never worked before. I didn't get it of course because I don't need another store card, I am in the garden for the Discover IT card. However, that made me feel so good to see that I finally got that popup! YAYYYY MEEE!!! LOL!

Current Score: TU 671 / EQ 675 / EX 682
Goal Score: 700 Club Across the board!

Re: JCrew Approval

After reading this thread, I went to j.crew website to try the shopping cart trick. I also got pre-approval for $1500.  I accepted the offer and I didn't buy anything. Smiley Happy

I also had pre-approval for VS and Chadwicks on December of last year.
