Re: The Official "What will Barclay's do" thread

They will do nothing bro don't worry. Before I went on my app spree my only card was the barclay itunes rewards with $1000 limit.

 

I got approved for AMEX Zync, Amex Blue Cash, Citi Diamond preferred, chase sapphire preffered,chase freedom,discover more, gap visa.

 

You know what Barclays did or what I did I should say, I called them up because I was a little scared and told them I want to buy a Macbook pro, they ask me how much I want and I said $2500 and they gave it to me, they however asked me about a late payment from 2010 put me on hold and then boom CLI.

 

Wish you the best, I used to be scared of credit now I have a strong portfolio that I hope to make even stronger a year from now Smiley Happy.

I think they sent LS flowers and a kiss!

 

Wow LS a 1.2k increase...  that is much nicer than I would have expected from Barclays.  I can only say that you deserve it because of all the hard work you have been putting in to stay in the garden and it is obviously paying off Smiley Happy
