Anyone use USAA

I've got a Prime + 2.9%
 
They claim to offer Prime Rate to those with excellent credit, does anyone have this rate?  I've got scores ranging from 750 - 790 but can't seem to get that kind of love from them.

New membership qualifications knock me out of the game. I hear mostly great things about this CU. One of the best along with Navy Federal Penfed and Patelco.

Well, the phone call failed but the email I sent got them to drop it from
Prime +2.9 to Prime +1.75
 
Better but really would like to know what it takes to get to prime

According to their website, the lowest rate you can have on either of their cards is 6.75% which is prime + 1.75.  They don't offer a fixed rate only variable.

Current Score: EX 772 EQ 777 TU 783 15 Jan 17
Goal Score: 815 across the board by Jan 18

Re: Anyone use USAA

I have a USAA MC $20K at a variable rate of 5.0% (Prime + 0%). I have had the card since Dec 07. My rate has moved down since that time.
 
The key - and I think it has been said on this board before is your use of their products - the more you use - the more the doors open for you.
 
I have checking, savings, cd, car insr, life insr, retirment plan and home insurance. I think that helps.
 
FICO: Eq: 785; Exp: 747, and Trans: 777.

Re: Anyone use USAA

They just denied me for a usaa amex with a 659 eq. Their reasons are: too many inq (12) over two yrs, accounts too new? and one 5 yrs old collection. I have sent them a recon email to do a manual review and I am still waiting for their reply. Do they ever recon? If i am still denied, i will stick with my penfed 15k, navyfed 15k and 5k. If they think penfed and navyfed are dumb enough to offer me such nice ccs when i had even lower score, to hell with them. I can;t believe they would not even offer me 1k even though i have been a member for 5 yrs.
