The only logical thing to do is switch to Android and sell your computer. Haha... APR doesn't matter to me, I pay it in full every month. my perspective is credit cards are a tool for me, and others may come to different conclusions. In other words, a grain of rice feeds a hundred different people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(TU) I don't think they use any FICO Score. They gave me an 845 with a range of 350 - 850. My FICO 8 is 831. Where can I find FICO 9? Not sure where you can get that PDF with your Score now. It must be available somewhere. 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. You are doing great! We have to remember to hit the credit limit increase button here in a few months. I wonder if it will be a soft inquiry for CLIs. I know what you mean about the excitement. I was really surprised by the pre-approval and I almost missed the PDF file with the score in it. But as it is, in addition to being Mr. Mean, I am also usually Mr. Anal Retentive.

I apologize I don;t have a "you nailed it" meme to post in every approval post Congratulations on your approval!!! No need to apologize. Hehehe, there is a bit of imitation of the indiscriminate information related to our screenshots, and there is a huge gap in our starting credit line. In fact, you have beaten all applicants on the Apple Card SL in the credit forum community. hegemony and PotO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I logged into CreditBoards this afternoon and saw that you and Hege were approved. I was a little shocked by the facts on the Reddit website and other credit forums. I did not see the applicant's high credit line. Just through yesterday's data points, I saw that all applications have a credit limit of no more than $10,000. Therefore, I have the motivation to apply. Both you and Hege are attractive factors that appeal to my desire to apply. Thanks!

I never intended to apply either after reading the data points Daddy Hege posted. I never figured I'd be pre-approved, either, since I almost never get pre-approvals. But when I checked my Apple Wallet to see if the Apple Card was open for general sign-up and saw the pre-approval, I figured what the heck. The worst that could happen is that I'd get yet another inquiry and a terrible limit. Then I'd just cancel the card. I never expected $20k. When I saw my FICO and the CL, I figured accepting was good. It could be a card that I won't cancel too quickly, especially since I can probably get up to $40k+, like Dad. You will go a long way at this game if you stick with Credit Boards. Pay careful attention to what Daddy Hegemony says and does and you will do well. I wish Mindy, Juggs and Konrad were still around.

Burgerwars Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 I'm 1000% not an iSheep but I plan to apply for this card. I don't have an iPhone (I have an Android Samsung Galaxy 10e) but do have a work issued iPhone that I hate. Last night I made sure it had the latest IOS version. It does and the Wallet app shows. I initialized it with my personal email address for the iCloud (I already had an iTunes account), since the Apple ID on that phone is my work email, that I don't want linked to my Wallet or any new Apple Credit Card. I signed-up earlier to be notified when I can apply, but the Wallet shows nothing yet. I read if I click the plus symbol in the corner of the Wallet app, it will show that I can apply for the Apple Card, but all it shows now is asking to add new cards to the app, which I have none. So I now need to wait. 😴 PotO and hegemony 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I may not be getting a CLI. So far using the Apple Card has proven turdish, at best. It's touted as a no FTF card, but I cannot get it to link to my overseas iPhone even though running the same Apple ID. Went to dinner and actually ally brought my US cellphone just to use Apple Pay. It wouldn't work with the Apple Card. WTF good is a no FTF card that can't be used overseas anyhow? Suppose I need to wait for the metal card and carry it with me. Screw that. I'll be be home in Vegas next week for a month. Let's see how it goes then. If it doesn't improve, I'll melt that sucker down and pour it into a penis mold and send it to Cook.

MP80 Posted August 9, 2019 Share Posted August 9, 2019 1 hour ago, hegemony said: WHO IS CALLING TO ASK FOR A LOWER APR???????!!!!! Hege, so far, only one or two people have an annual interest rate of 12.99%, and one of them has a credit limit of less than $7,000. This person earns more than $130,000 a year, but the credit score is about 715, which is a bit of a surprise to me. Mr. Pot and my credit status are much better than the above applicants. It is hard to understand that our APR value is 5 points higher. How Goldman Sachs' computer algorithms consider loans is esoteric.
