    just don't buy any expensive jewelry there and you'll be fine ;)

    those places are con-artists.

    Kay Jewlers (Sterling) is an inhouse finance company, insured credit by investors. Zales Diamond Card is issued by Citibank, and requires the standard Citibank approval standards - score and derog standards.

    Sterling reviews each application individually through Credit Managers, and makes decisions. They make on the spot decisions for the instore credit, first based on your score and then the follow through with the final verifications. Notice the receipt you sign in the store, subject to final credit approval.

    Just my 2cents.

    Re: Re: Kay Jeweler

    They pulled TU which is good and bad. TU has always been delete happy for me! All I have on that bureau is my 9 month old mortgage and 2 18 month old cc's. I think that is why I didn't get much of a credit limit.... $2000. But that is OK! I was looking at improving my credit usage percentage.

    For those who have Kay reporting... is the CL showing the highest amount charged so far or does it not show at all? I have no problem charging it high, paying it off and leaving it that way! :)

    Thank you for the opportunity to consider your request for credit.
    Unfortunately, we are unable to approve your application at this time.
    Other payment options are available so that you may take advantage of our
    large selection of merchandise.

    You will receive a letter with the specific reason(s) for denial within 15
    business days.

    We hope that we have the opportunity to serve you in the future.

    Ugh! Oh well. If it isn't the BK of two-plus years ago, it's probably the number of inquiries which is around 6 or 7 in the past six month.

    I'll let you know once "the letter" arrives.

    Re: Re: Re: Kay Jeweler

    I didn't get it. If they pulled TU for me, I probably would have, but they pulled EXP!!! My EXP report is showing a charge off from 2003 and a late payment from a student loan. The rest of my derogs are old, from 97/98, but some were re-aged to 2001. Good luck to you!
