Pre-Qualed for no AF Barclay arrival

[hrdsurfer]

I checked the link and im pre-qualified for the no AF version of their arrival card. The thing is, it doesnt do anything for me that my CSP doesnt. Are the requirements for the arrival and world arrival different? I guess what im asking is does it work like amex where if you're approved for a BCE you're good for a BCP?

believe world starts at $5k.

I think i read that also, but CSP starts at 5k also. I figure if I qualified for that then i should qualify for the world master card.

Go for it!

Argghhhhh I applied for the world master card and it gave me a 3.5k platinum. I'm kind of pissed. The Platinum is worthless to me. Going to try and call the EO line.

If it helps any, I was not pre-qualified for any Barclays card but approved for the AF version WMC Arrival (not instant) $10k limit. Limits on my report at the time ranged from $2.75k to $18k.

Guess that didnt help! +1 to calling, never hurts to ask.

Barclays is strange with their approvals.  If you were approved for the non-World chances are they will not upgrade the product type even if they increase the CL.

I mean, I guess the CL helps out my utilization, but the card is kind of worthless to me beyond that. Is there any chance of calling the recon number for a PC to a worldcard, or am I stuck with this, and the HP?

Ok, im really confused now. I guess the plat version is the same as the WMC but with a lower limit, as far as i can tell.
