How does Barclays react to hitting them up for 2 cards in 1 day??

[MidnightJester]

I am planning a app spree in a few weeks. I was wondering how their online system handels applying for 2 cards at once. Sallie Mae Barclays and Barclaycard ring in fast secsession. only if first goes off without hitch.

Are they like chase where is see you guys mentions it dosent work in the same day?? Can you get 2 barclay card pulls to register at 1 pull??

Barclays usually likes 6 mos between cc approvals. YMMV

I applied for Sallie and Arrival at the same time (Arrival was my first app submitted, though) about 1.5 months ago. Arrival got an insta approval but the SM got the "pending" message. I called up to recon and they told me they'd like to see how I did with the arrival before extending additional credit.

I'll likely be trying for the SM after 6 months from my last application like Lexie suggested, especially if they do an auto-CLI on the arrival.
