Approved for a second Barclaycard!

So against my better judgment...and considering I'm going to be gardening for the foreseeable future, I figured I'd burn one more inquiry on TU.

 

Used the prescreened offer I received in the mail for the Travelocity AMEX. Since I already have a Barclay Rewards card, approval wasn't instant...ended up getting the 7-10 message and called into the backdoor right away.

 

The analyst was pretty pleasant...asked about my employment, why I had an unpaid Midland collection on my report (It took me about 5 minutes to explain that doozy.) and why I obtained a few accounts recently.

 

In the end he approved me for $800. Not bad. At some point I might check to see if I could move some CL over from the rewards card.

Congrats! Like all of their cards if you use heavy and PIF it will grow over time. Make sure to spend $1000 in the first 90 days to get that 2nd 5000 free points.

I just got approved for the rewards and I'm contemplating applying for the Priceline card. Not sure If I should do this or recon for a higher limit on rewards.
