Penfed Pathfinder Rewards Approved

Anonymous · ‎05-05-2019

Penfed got drunk tonight. I'm still in shock.

Opened the Access America Checking today and since I was getting a hard pull anyway I was either going to ask for a CLI on my Power Rewards or apply for the Pathfinder Rewards. Decided to go with the Pathfinder Rewards because I'm gonna do some traveling this summer and I wanted to take advantage of the TSA Precheck credit that's given on this card.

After applying, got a response saying that my app needs to be reviewed. A few hours later, I get an e-mail saying that I was approved for $20k! I still think it's a mistake lol

Does anyone know if Penfed allows transferring credit to another card? Don't know if it's allowed or can be done with an Amex to a Visa. Cause I certainly don't need all that credit on one card lol

You’re allowed to combine your limit. I did it last week but there’s a limit of 25k per card (at least for me). I had to give up 3k on my Visa.
I had the Visa with 18k for a while and was recently approved the pathfinder for 10k. Now my pathfinder is 25k and closed my visa.

That's good to hear. Maybe I'll divide it between the two then.

Also, has anyone have to go through some process with Penfed after being approved? So far they've sent me two emails that makes me sign-in with my application and complete some tasks. First was just e-signing the Credit Card Authorization Form. Now tonight, they made me download and read Risked Based Pricing Adjustment. Which was basically telling me what score they used. I don't remeber doing any of this for my Power Cash Rewards.
