US Bank Premier LOC

[Anonymous]

Received a marketing email from these guys today, which feels good after working to rebuild(still in progress).  While this isn't a pre-qual or anything, I can't help but feel that it is somewhat targeted, since I've never received solicitations for this before in the 8 or 9 years I've banked with them.  I picked up my first two USB CC's in June, so I imagine that may have triggered some tailored marketing.  

Just wondering what thoughts were on the USB LOC from anyone who has had one.  Not planning on applying at the moment, as I have enough new accounts.  Was intrigued that the email listed the APR @11.25%, which seemed decent for this type of product.  I have the standard Reserve Line from them, but they told me they do not allow CLI's on it.  I assume they do on the Premier LIne, but please confirm if anyone knows.

I'm pretty sure its for a set amount.  Just beware, it'll be a hp if you apply.  I had just received my Alt Reserve, was solicited by a branch manager over the phone for the Premier LOC.  He said they'd use the same hp, but nope! A second hp, only to be denied.  It was only for $5k, so what the heck? My AR cl is $29k, so I was scratching my head on this one.  Win some, lose some.

How long have you been a customer with them? It says on the website at least 120 days, but I've heard 6 months is the unofficial minimum. I just hit that, so I'm going to apply in the next couple of weeks and see.

Short and sweet ... was a USB customer for eight months with two credit cards, checking and savings plus reserve lines. Applied with a personal banker and was approved on the spot for $8K at 9.25%. Last year moved it up to $15K with 10%. Seems with USB they love you or not. Oh, interest rate is variable and floats with the prime. Of interest, reserve lines run under the banking side of USB and the Premier Line runs under the credit card side of the bank. Note, when doing their credit evaluations, they take all credit with the bank into consideration and in my case it created an AR with a $10K reduction in total (note: I had more credit with them than my annual income - so they were correct in adjusting things) credit.
