Thanks the CS rep said therr was a glitch with new cards and BTs so I should try next week. My card is already activated so I am not sure if the glitch is about the no credit file or not . I may call but he said to wait til next week. And yes why do they pull for BTs they just saw my credit ???

That's just how PenFed runs their bank.  Good luck next week, let us know how it goes.

I just joined a week ago and app'd for and approved for PCR, requested BT when app'ing. I hope I don't run into the same issue. They did say it would take a month for it to complete.

Say what?!?!  I don't have a need for a BT but in the event that I did...I certainly wouldn't wait a month for it.  Hopefully this is just something they're doing because you're new...if this is a new standard practice then that'd suck big time.

Re: Pen Fed BT's what the heck

I am hoping this is a glitch and they get it fixed. They gave me a very generous CL which so would like to take advantage of BT feature of it really exist😕 I will be patient so far good to me just this BT fiasco is a bit unnerving.

Yea I don't know, at this point my other credit card statement closed 2 days ago so I'm good as long as it's done before the next statement at the end of April. I do see the BT as pending when I log into Penfed's website. I sent back the credit card agreement that I had to sign on Monday so hopefully in 7-10 days I'll see the card and I'm assuming once it's activated they initiate the BT. I don't know. I've never done a BT when I app'd for a card before.
