Penfed Approval!

After reading all the penfed praise I decided to apply for a membership last night. I belong to a credit union that currently doesn't do much for me (affinity fcu). The application process was a breeze, then this morning I decided to call and ask my questions directly to the cr. I ended up applying for platinum rewards visa sig for 10k 17.99% apr. I also got approved for a auto refi but i'm unsure if i'll accept the terms. I would like to know my changes at recon for a higher limite. I would like to use this acct for a bt but at 10k I'm not sure if I will anymore.

 

In any case i'm excited to start my relationship with penfed.

 

ex 702, tu 702, eq 653: Not sure what score they pulled.

Re: Penfed Approval!

They pull EQ , but they have their own version of a scoring system called Next Gen , for most ppl.it is lower than their actual fico score . I would ask Baller she is the Penfed Guru.

Re: Penfed Approval!

Update: just called to request an increase and they bumped my limit from 10k to 15k. It's fair given I asked for 20k. They met me in the middle.
