Citi Strata Elite reported nearly immediately

[MJ-san]

Was approved Monday 8/4, card sent Tuesday 8/5 and arrived Thursday 8/7.

Trade line showed up on EQ and EX today 8/7 before I even activated it!

That was quick! I recently got approved for the Citi Costco Anywhere Visa and it showed up on Exp, TU, and EQ faily quickly like within a few days as well. Chase and Amex for me personally all waited at least 1 billing statement and for Amex it took like 2.

Wow that sure was fast.

Congrats! That’s awesome news; getting approved and having it report to EQ and EX the same day you received it is impressive.

Hopefully it did not affect your scores too much!

Only 1 point - however **bleep** USB reported Smartly Visa >50% utilization the day before which tanked me 17 points.  I had it at 40% on the day the statement cut but they reported 4 days later at a higher balance I'm still in my 0% through November so it's a temporary thing until I pay it off.

USB and Elan like to report at the end of the calendar month instead of at statement cut.  Something to consider when managing reported balances.

I recently opened the aven visa. It reported the day after approval.

I opened a BofA Customized Cash Rewards last month.  It reported 4 days after approval.  I hadn't even received the card in the mail yet.
