    Call 1-888-356-1006 and speak to C/S to verify if approved or not. There have been stories of early approval then it turns into denial. I haven't seen anything of that nature for awhile though. Their a shaky operation but getting better. The tough part is when you actually get the checks. My first 3 checks were returned to my bank upaid because of a sytem glitch at AMEX. They gave me an apology letter and $200 for their mistake. One tip!!Always write out the check to yourself and deposit it. You can't afford to send a check to a vendor and not have it honored!

    George,

    I got P+5.99% on my third try. A cl of $3000, though. It helped that I had an extra $10K in available credit showing on my report.


    Informed,

    The best thing you can do is call 1-888-356-1006 , wait to speak with a representative, and ask them when the account will be fully set up online. But if you have an account number now, it's a pretty good chance that you are really approved.

    The welcome letter comes first, the checks come 5-7 days later. I think their both mailed from different locations.You should have both in 2 weeks.
