How long from approval to it hits the Credit Agencies?

[Anonymous]

In general by creditor does anyone know the policies or how long
an "appoved" card would take to report to the various CA's?

(or is there a thread like this?)

some matrix like :

AMEX - 2 days from x

Citi - next day from x 

BOA - approx 2 weeks after i did Y.

For most it's a statement or two before it hits. For Barclay's, it's a day or two.

Can anyone reply for Pen Fed?

Your Amex reported 2 days after approval? Mine takes close to 2 months!

There's no set timeframe even with a given creditor for most creditors.  AmEx varies widely.  My Sallie Mae (Barclay) reported before I received it.

On top of that, the CRA's vary on how quickly they update (also a common discussion topic).

My experience has been that the accoubt hits the reports when the first statement cuts, therefore up to a month. Barclay was my exception. They hit all three credit CRA's in about one or two days, well before I even had the card.

Theres no thread and its seldom the same enough to guess.

My Paypal card reported 2 days after approval.  Most major cards I have take atleast a week to a month to report.

Synchrony (for me) seems to update within 3 or 4 days.  

GECRB took about a week and a half.

Capital One took a month and a half.

Discover, chase and all of those I dont remember exact, about 2-3 weeks.

TY All.

Any memories on PenFed?

I'm micro timing my Amex, SM, PendFed CC apps.

PenFed pulled my EQ a few weeks ago so I was getting itchy
to actually apply for the Rewards card and thought if they 3+ weeks
to report I could get the ball rolling and apply while
waiting for some updates/Score+ on my Amex/Exp and SM/TU.
