UPDATE!! APPROVED for both Marriott Rewards and CS... - myFICO® Forums

mowglidude · ‎03-08-2016

After 25 days since my double app with Chase, DOB verifications on both Marriott Premier Rewards and CSP, I was approved this morning for $15K on CSP, to add to my $15K approval last week on the Marriott card, all with the same HP. Unbelievable!!! If it wasnt for ALL the advice I received on this forum on 7-10 day messages, 2 week messages, verification and PATIENCE, I know I could of blown it and may have even been denied by calling. As painful as waiting is, the outcome is well worth it!! Thank you all on this forum, for helping me on this journey...So, in the last 30 days, I also added the Barclaycard Arrival + for $3.5K and also received TWO $3K CLI's each, for a total of $39.5K in additional CL!!! Now back to the garden for 3-4 months...

Starting Score: 589/599/598 5/8/14
FICO® Score 8: EX 788 TU 791 EQ 785 05/09/23
Goal: Was 740 across all bureaus. DONE!

Congrats!!!

I am in the same boat as you I apped for the ink plus and the Marriott last week. The ink says 7-1 days and the Marriott says 2 weeks. I want to call but I will wait. Hopefully they are just verification, 25 days is a long time.

How long was it before you go your first letter from them?

It was six days before I got the first verification letter for DOB & address. I received the second letter 7 days after the first, or 13 days from original app day. You can read my whole process here: http://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Applications/Ok-I-apped-for-the-Marriott-Rewards-today/td-p/4453927

I had 7-10 day messages on both for a period of time, but it was all just for verification..
