Congratulations on DH approval!
@Anonymous wrote:Yes, you read that right. When I first got out of the military, I opened a PENFED account, just checking and saving. Every couple of years I would apply for their credit cards and always denied.
I got married and my husband (civilian) was immediately approved for major loans, credit cards, etc. Well a couple of weeks ago, I applied for the Gold card as it was hovering above the accounts section, not an offer. The status kept saying it was under review, then finally it was approved for 7.5k (I have other cards higher with higher limits than this). I'll take it.
Like a petulant child, I said, what the heck, I'll apply for the Penfed Power Cash and voila, it was approved for the same limit.
So yes, eventually PENFED approves people who are persistent, lol.
Are you referring to the cards shown here?

Yes!! I remember getting an email awhile ago from PenFed that they were changing their product offers and maybe, just maybe, that's their soft offers cause I didn't get a hard pull and it's been over 2 weeks.

True. It's strange tho that the other cards are not listed. Another person above husband applied and got instantly approved, like my situation after trying for so long.

Congratulations on your PENFED approval, FINALLY!!! Your persistence made it happen!!!
