DSW Visa Pre-Approval sent by email - FYI

[brikays]

Was checking my email and noticed an email from DSW with a pre-approval. This contains the opt-out notice and a pre-approval reservation number to accept the offer. Just wanted to share with ya'll DSW lovers out there. There is a possibility that Comenity is sending out pre-approvals by email. No sure whether I am the only one but its worth checking your emails. Here is an email I got from DSW on 5/9.

FYI - used the xxxxxxx to replace personal information contained in the email.

I got the same email but I fear store CC at this point and I'm trying to garden as a habit, not as a goal so unfortunately sorry DSW but you will have to wait.

This is more of a co-branded Visa card then a store cc, beacuse you can use it anywhere Visa is accepted

I know. Lol but I'd rather a bank Visa than, a apparel co-branded Visa. The APR will still be ridiculous.

Oh ok I got ya, I have the Total Rewards Visa, primary because I no longer have to pay resort fees at CET properties, I do not buy shoes at DSW so I will not be applying for this one

Sad Face

If you buy a lot of shoes at DSW and always PIF, it could be a good deal.   I don't think I ever buy shoes there, but ti could be a good card for someone.
