Another FNANB increase

    Seems like it is quarterly now. What I like most is the fact that it is automatic. I have never called them to ask for an increase.

    Automatic limit increases and APR reductions for good payment history, are good incentives to keep a card. A card that frankly, (now that I am in a better credit neighborhood), I would have probably considered closing by now.

    They waived all yearly fees when I first got the card, and lowered my APR after a couple months, increase my limit by 50% quarterly. Nice card, anyone considering a good credit building, starter card should look at FNANB.

    Hey Nave,
    Whats your current APR? I am new with FNANB (3 months) and still on the somewhat high end at 15%.
    I had 0% anything purchased in March for 3 months. No annual fee. Noy to shabby for someone still in sub-prime.

    That is where I am, 15.9 (my original was 19+) but I am thinking of calling to ask for another reduction since they are my highest APR, but as I said, I like the treatment. I will call next week and let you know the outcome.

    How did you get that 0%? Was it a promotion, or did you call and ask?

    I agree, not too shabby! So you like them too?

    -Peace, Dave

    For me they pulled Equifax. Here is what I had at the time. You can see scrolling up, that "yes" they offer sub prime cards.

    BTW after reading that post, they now have an excellent online payment system and they post payments faster than any of my other online payments do (24 hours I think)

    FNANB is a good bank to do business with. Very generous with CL increases- but 15.9% (as of 2 months ago) was the absolute lowest rate they'd go to.

    It's not quite sub-prime- more like almost-prime.

    I just got the 3 month 0% offer on purchases today. I was hoping it would allow transfers but 0% on purchases is ok...plus I just got the increase. FNANB will be my April card.

    I wish some of my PRIME cards would increase my CREDIT LIMIT by 50% (4) times per year...

    :)

    ONCE PER YEAR WOULD BE NICE!!!

    Yea George, my FNANB card is less than 1 year old. I started with a $300 (toy) limit.

    Went to $500, then to $700, and now is $1200. Again in less than 1 year. 3 increases each about 50%.

    By the year 2012 I figure it will be around $23,000,000 LOL

    Do they have a site to apply online? Is it a secured card?

    Their website is www.fnanb.com

    It looks like their online applications system is down but you can call them and apply over the phone. I received my application in the mail. When I just looked at their website (products section) the card that "looks like mine" (from their pictures) is the Mastercard, only mine is a Visa.

    No this is NOT a secured card. If you have really sub-prime reports, I would call first and ask what their requirements are (like no bk or no c/o in last 2 years etc)
