Recon

[Maldanado]

If you recon once and are denied, should you try again? Or is it over and done at that point on your app? I'm thinking about giving it a second shot with Barclays for the USairways card.

2 with Barclay I think is what you can get... unlike some banks, Barclay actually records down everytime you call and I have been told I see you talked to someone on this date at this time but I can look it over for you for a second recon.

[Maldanado]

Thanks. I'll give it a shot.

Was the second time a charm?

Mail letters rather than calling. I've been successful with this method and so have many others. You have nothing to lose.

UM

I apped for the Apple and was instant approved, but was not happy with the CL, so I called once, nothing, twice, nothing, and the third call was the charm, the guy I spoke with was very nice and granted me a CLI.

This my be a YMMV type of thing.

You are correct, every time I called I was told "I see you spoke to (blank) on (blank) date and time" They note to your account every time you call.

I don't see how it could hurt to attempt a second recon, I say go for it !

Same outcome.....They want to see a longer credit history from me with the 2 cards I do have.

Sorry to hear that

Use the cards, pay them on time, and try again in 6 months, but it will be a hard pull for a CLI request.

Best of Luck!

Bummer, sorry to hear that you didn't get approved ~ but the good news is that there isn't any deragatory information holding you back such as late payments, etc..

I'm sure you will be approved after a few more months !
