Did anyone here get denied for DCU membership and can share the reason?
Was it die to a low Chexsystems score?
Did you try to reapply? What were the results? How long did you wait before reapplying?
I recently started a topic about the minimum chexsystems score for DCU https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Personal-Finance/Minimum-Chexsystyms-score-for-DCU-membership/m-p/6...
If you have any information about approval or denial for a given score, I'd appreciate if you share it there.
Thanks everyone for helping!
Sorry for your membership denial .. I am sure others will have some advice.

It will be great to here some advice, but I'm really looking for data points more than advice.

@folks19, I will page @Anonymous , He might have some DP's for you?
He'll chime in when possible. He's always a great help
From my understanding, DCU generally denies for inquiries. Wait at least 6 months with no further inquiries before trying again. If you have derogatory banking history in your Chex file, I have no idea when they will accept you - you may have to wait for what ever it is to be removed.

Thank you. I only have inquiries. I was denied due to a low score. Do you know anyone who was denied for this reason? How many inquiries? what was their score?
DPs as of last week's application:
0/6, 3/12 inquiries EQ
700 EQ 5
Approved

I don't think most of them check their scores. Score denials and inquiry denials go hand in hand with Chex. The bulk of the information Chex uses for the scoring comes from LexisNexis so check with them too.

I will. Thank you! I didn't realize they are partnered.
