Mods- can we get an update to the Backdoor number sticky thread?

Lots of new info and numbers that can be added to this one. I did send a couple of PM's with updates but it appears Scamp is not around to update. It is a very popular thread here and for the service of the boards it should be maintained with updated info. 

 

I would be happy to resend the info as needed, I am sure others will be happy to contribute. 

 

Thanks!

@scenery Would it be possible for me to take a look at the numbers you have compiled? Thanks, I have some numbers as well and also would be willing to contribute.

 

 

If Scamp isn't around we could just make a new list,  combining the old numbers with our own numbers and ask one of the active mods to pin it. Or have on the mods that's active just edit the post with our info. Idk if a mod could edit Scamp's post though?

Sure, I will post them when I can get to office tomorrow. Nothing earth moving, just notes on numbers from Scamp's post that I used for recon that are no longer working or not correct.

Yes, if you guys start a new thread, and are willing to update it, then we can pin it and unfloat the old.

Thanks for the info!

 

Well fellow members can we compile an updated recon list? As everyone knows recons are important and can sometimes be the only way to get the card. I have had to recon about 75% of my cards and I owe a big thank you to that thread. Unfortunately times change and so do bank numbers. Fresh info is needed to stay on top of "backdoor" numbers. 

 

Compiling a new list will take the help of the community. I only have experience with Chase, Amex, Citi and Barclays. That's a drop in the bucket for US banks and cards. Anyone willing to post their recon story and number used for recon call? Please note numbers that did not work too as those need to be documented as dead. 

 

If we can get a decent thread going I am willing to start a new thread with current info and keep it updated.

Re: Mods- can we get an update to the Backdoor number sticky thread?

You should probably decide on an update project leader...

 

You can volunteer for the position Smiley Wink

 

or if you are unwilling or unable to do so, I can do it.

 

Then, the update project leader should post a new thread.  Call it something like "calling all backdoor numbers:"

 

The project leader should keep a separate list going in either an Xcel spreadsheet or Word doc with a table inserted.

 

The project leader should update this list with any new information..  a seperate column should indicate "Date Updated"

 

That way you can keep track of updates.

 

Once the new list is finished...  Post the final list in a new thread, and then PM Ilecs or any other Mod to unsticky the old, and re-sticky the new

I'd do it if no one else can. Smiley Happy

I would prefer not to be a team leader for this project, as I have a number of other committments taking my time right now.  however, I am more than willing to help compile information.
