Still waiting for my Barclay SM Card to arrive.

It has been about a week since I was approved for my SM card and just received an email two days ago that my cards were shipped. They are supper slow at getting cards out apparently. Oh well, I just really wanted to use it for the gas points in May....

Don't they offer to expidite for "just" $29? So they want it to be slow if you reject their generous offer.

The reward period isn't month based, more billing cycle, so you have $250 to spend per statement.

I got my It & SM the same day. Lol.

I like that Chase Expedite for free.

But I'm sure we've all been where you are at. Anxiously awaiting our new cards!

This does not surprise me!,

I got approved for a Home Depot CC with a $10,000 limit and it never showed after a month so I called up and ordered another one!,

I also I got approved for an American Express $2,000 limit (same time frame),

it also never showed up after a month and I reordered it!

I don't know what is going on with these credit card companys, but 2 strikes back to back? what are the odds?

LOL, I loved how fast I received my Discover card and the packaging was great too! I did receive my Amex in decent time but it just came in a regular envelope! The funny thing is I already received the Pin code for the SM cards! I know they don't want them to arrive in the same days but I think I would have like to receive my cards first since I don't even do cash withdrawals! LOL

That's pretty crazy. I'd be worried some one took them from my mail if that happened.

I was approved for an Amex Monday email said It was sent out Tues & I received it yesterday (Thursday).
