EXPRESS STORE CARD

[laz98]

I stupidly got an Express card before I realized I hardly shop there

I shop there a lot and the preapproval just sux... they have sales almost every week... I called again and the lady told me to go to the store and let the manager know that I did a preapproval but having trouble with the application..... I don't really want the hard pull so I'll pass on this one.... It is so darn hard to be in the garden.... I even wonder if it's normal to be a credit addict....lol

I too applied for the express card using the pre-approval pop up. It would tell me we were having a problem processing your request and then it would give me the 7-10 day timeframe. I never received a denial letter from them in the mail. I don't even see the sp on my credit report. I think something is wrong with their pre-approval. I also got the pre-approval from the buckle store, it told me I was pre approved for 250.00. I applied, got the 7-10 day message, never received a denial letter. Something is wrong.

Sorry to hear about your application problems with Express.  I had a similiar problem when I applied.  I didn't get a preapproval, but when I applied back in January online, I ran into trouble as well.  After I filled in the application and hit the button to process, it took forever to process and the website froze on me.  So I called in to their Customer Service and he said they didn't even have my application so it didn't go through.  So I went ahead and tried again (at that time I had no inquiries so I was able to take this chance).  The second time I did it the SAME thing happened and I exit out the website and when I logged back in the Express account information was added to my payment area! I was so excited!! I still called in to their Customer Service just to confirm since I had not received any sort of "Congratulations' screen.  They confirmed it had been approved.  Seems like their online application is extremely glitchy.

Does anyone happen to have the instant credit number or recon number for them?

I used to love using my Express card... It helped me build my credit!!!! And they offer so many discounts/rewards. The new "Next" rewards/points program is not as good as the old one though lol
