U finally got THE COVETED EMAIL!!!
Orchard is crap. I went wells Fargo and had it in a week.
So, I finally got a letter of approval and made my $99.00 deposit on the 7th of this month for the Capital One secured CC with a $200 limit. How long has everyone waited after making their deposit to receive the card? I will be getting an Open Sky CC also. Mainly because I don't want another inquiry on my report. Thanks

You should have it within 2 weeks. I made my deposit on the 3rd. I called them last night and the CSR said the account was set up on the 7th and that I should have the card inside of 10 days.

it took me 17 days to get the card from the date of the inquiry. DH was approved for the HSBC card and they took the money out 10 business days ago and they finally had on the application status that he was approved for the 300 limit today finally. Now to wait to get the card.
I got the prepaid Amex within 5 days.

Yeah. It's a long process for sure. I was specifically talking about the Cap 1 secured card that lundungurl asked about because that was my exact situation - $99 deposit/$200 CL. I think from the time I applied until I even got to this point, it has been a month. I received another secured card from First Progress and it was a lot quicker, however, they required the entire $300 as a deposit so that is probably why.
