Holy Moly!!! I think Hades just froze over! Penfed! Finally!

[Struggling]

I can't beleive my eyes. I just app'd for the 4th time in 3 years for the cash reward card. I had always been turned down for building pyramids. Finally, today I check and see APPROVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I was so expecting another denial. I think I am in shock! /THUD

Congrats!

[Chad3304]

congrats!! score/limit??

[Struggling]

They pulled Equifax (714) & Exp (722) I have no baddies except a Chap 7 in 2002. No inquiries in a year and newest acct was over a year old.

Be careful with them they are horribly picky.

I only asked for 3K to get in the door. I'll work on CLI's now that I've got it.

[jkfaria]

WOW - Super Congrats!!!

PenFed is a tough nut to crack for a credit card, but they are unique in one way: They offer those wonderful pre-approvals to many existing members who qualify after about a year (some 8 months), and they are legitimate pre-approvals vs. what some offer out there in the cc-world.

 

Soooo....if I were someone wanting a PenFed credit card but was somewhat borderline/iffy on getting an approval right now, I'd open a share account with them for $5 and let it age. Good things can happen later this year or early next year for those who do. A very worthwhile investment.

Show off! PenFed won't give me any pre-approvals or CLI.

Why don't you get pre-approvals? They're completely worthless to me at the moment. Just showing others they should get into PenFed and maybe something good will come their way. I'm far too self-deprecating to ever be a show-off.
