Pottery Barn SCT- hard pull

Hello, just wanted to put this one out there. I got a SCT prescreen offer while shopping on Pottery barn's website today, and it was a hard pull on EX for me. $4,000 CL. My other cards have higher limits and my EX is a good score, so I called customer service soon after to request a CLI. I got a rep and after confirming my info, she transferred me to an analyst. At this point I wasn't aware they had done a HP, so I thought I was still operating without one. This lady said the highest they could go without pulling credit was $6,000. I was hoping for 10k, but settled for 6k thinking it was still a SP. I also have 3 other comenity cards So I wasn't a new customer or etc.. just beware the HP may happen if you attempt CLI.
Also as I've seen on other posts I had no luck with Robolady... I got transferred right away to a person.

Re: Pottery Barn SCT- hard pull

I got a Pottery Barn back in January and got 2500 dollar limit and went to the store two days later to get my card number.  Went home called the robolady for a CLI and they increased me to 3500 dollars and no hard pull. Month later I called the robolady again and they bumped it up to 5k and I received a hard pull.

 

 I like the Pottery Barn card as you get 0 percent interest if you pay the balance within 12 months.   Easy way to keep a balance on a card to help the Fico scores.  As they will approve the card with very very low scores at levels where you won't get 0 percent anywhere else. Plus their furniture is pretty rock solid and they put everything together for you. 

 

One thing to note I bought a dinning room set on their site and my credit card gave me an offer of 15 percent off. I put set in my cart and didn't buy.  They  then sent me a did you forget something email with a 20 percent off coupon. As the dinning room furniture was already 30 percent off it seemed like a good deal. So if you want more savings try the second shopping cart trick to get an additional 5 percent off. 

 

Oh and conrgatulations.
