You were right to expect disappointment, it seems. Probably like when Sprint launched their credit card issued by a Eurotrash Czech Republic issuer, Home Credit LLC. Limits were laughable. Wife and I shut those turds down really fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No approval offer for me. GS only hounds me for their pre-approved $40k personal loan, but not their highfalutin Apple (Turd) Card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got the pre-approval on my Apple Pay. Being the diligent Hegemony Disciple that I am, I applied. Instant approval for $20k. Hard inquiry on TU. Not sure what scoring system Goldman Sachs Bank is using, but on a scale of 350 - 850 they say mine is 845. Seems like they don't use credit scores much when setting the APR because mine is 17.99% -- not that I give a rat's arse. The lowest they say is 12.99%. They do not seem inquiry or new account sensitive. I have 8 under a year old on TU. About ten new accounts.

I read an article about the Apple Card and I just decided to check my Apple Wallet. There was a link about Apple Card and I clicked. It asked a bunch of questions and then came back with a PDF to read with my limit and APR. It asked if I accepted, and I clicked yes. Then the congrats screen. Is Apple Card open to cold apps yet?

PotO Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 1 hour ago, MP80 said: Hey... Hege, Pot, my credit is very small compared to the two of you. $15k is decent. I wouldn't go below that, but $15k is respectable. Daddy Hege has shown us that there is room for CLIs down the road. What did they say your credit score was? I'm wondering how they determine APRs. It's no big deal, but I always thought your APR was set according to credit score. But with an 845 out of 850, that can't be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of the excitement, I was too anxious to click submit and not care about other things. I believe my TransUnion score is 796. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
