Question...when I was applying it said that I could get 10% off my order, however, I did not order anything. Can I still redeem my 'first purchase' later and still receive the 10% off?

 

Anyone have experience with this? 


  join clubO for the free shipping and rewards...  you will get many 10% and 12% coupons in your email and yes you will get 10% on your first purchase with the card.

 

congrats on the approval and CLI     :]

Wow, I hit the luv button after my approval this morning and got the 7-10... my SL was only $250 too. Not enough to buy what I wanted but I took it for what it was. I wonder if I'd have a shot at an increase if I called? What did you say to them?

Congratulations for your approval!!! Good luck on your CLI!!! Keep up the good work!!!

So reading another post from another member, they mentioned a shopping cart trick. To this day, I haven't been able to be successfull, probably because I was doing it all wrong. So here is the breakdown of exactly what I did.

 

1.) Added an iPhone 6 to my cart

2.) Went to the checkout screen, entered all my pertinent information (Name, Address, etc..)

 

...and BOOM!

 

Got a pop-up window that said I was "Pre-approved for Overstock.com" message. I was hesitant at first since I was trying to garden Smiley Sad ...but I'm a sucker and applied.

 

I got approved for a SL of $250, woohoo!! ...not

 

I called the backdoor number and I asked for $3k. They were not able to approve me for $3k but countered with $1800, which i gladly accepted.

 

Hope this helps anyone else looking to open an Overstock account and/or bump up some avail credit.

 

Your Overstock Store Card Credit Limit and Available Balance:

Credit Limit:
$1800
Available Balance:
$1800

 


This is great to hear, because I was approved today for $250, too. I was really surprised it was that low, because I actually have higher limits on Comenity cards for J.Jill and Lane Bryant.  I was expecting at least $500.  I will be calling the backdoor number tomorrow and requesting $3000.  Hopefully they counter with something close to what you got.  


Congratulations on your approval!!! Good luck on your CLI!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Re: Overstock.com Approval and CLI!

Just wondering if it was a HP for anyone when they called in to ask for a CLI?? I received the lousy $250 starting CL and called to get it increased and was told it would be a HP so I'm just curious to see if any one else received a HP from doing this?
