Back in may of 2021 I applied for an Amazon CC, assuming it would be no problem, lots of money, good Credit score (Equifax 797, bank 805) I have 20 year plus good Mastercard history. Here's what I wrote a year ago May.
I recently was enticed by the $200 gift card offered by Amazon to apply again. I got a letter, my Equifax account is froze, Oops, so I unfroze it and called, they checked and denied me within minutes. Not enough accounts open and lack of money in their bank. I did make a major error, I put how much income (puffed up) I live on, rather than my adjusted gross income. So that number is now changed from $70k to $193k, I did a large Roth conversion and may have had $30k or $60k of tuition out of that, should remember where all that money went but I don't. They are giving it another review. I have ask how much money will I need to transfer to a chase account, but they always say that is not necessary. So again, I'm waiting for an answer to see if I'm worthy! I offered to send them my Vanguard account that I'm living on a yearly 2.3% of, but no that's not necessary.
/rant over, for an undetermined time!
I recently applied for an Amazon Visa card, I was turned down, for two reasons, I didn't have enough credit cards, I didn't have any money in their bank.
I sent a letter asking them to reconsider, and asking how much balance I needed to carry in their bank. It has been 3 weeks, so it looks like they have ignored it.
I did get a letter from Equifax, I assume that is normal operating procedure when credit is denied. It was labeled, "Your Dispute Results". I disputed nothing and they don't say they changed anything. Kind of a useless letter. I also sent a letter to Equifax asking to to have a few things clarified. Still waiting.
