I just got it for the pretty card. I’ll still be using my Propel for daily use.
 
If you google credit check total they offer a trial for $1 and you can see them.

This is a terrible idea! That company is actually Experian, and the goal is to lock you into a $29.99/mo product. For ***** and giggles I looked up how to cancel.

>>How do I cancel my membership? To cancel, please contact Customer Care at 1-877-284-7942.<<

This is Experian's main number that's impossible to speak with anyone, and repeatedly hangs up on you. I was trying to get my report refrozen after learning  used TU. They were impossible, and finally getting someone 45 min later was incompetent.

I bet they train their CSRs who take calls to cancel to hang up "accidentaly."

Yes. Got the email yesterday. Not showing up in wallet. Not able to use the link in the email either — get the error “Apple Pay services currently unavailable”... Have a ticket with Apple that got bumped up to engineering. Still no word from them since yesterday.

Now we are in the exact same boat. I called Apple, explained to them the situation and even shared with them the email I got and they confirmed it was from them. After doing the basics, they escalated it to an engineer. So now I play the waiting game.

Let me know if you had any luck.
 
[QUOTE="since it's only 1% back that I get on any of my cards. [/QUOTE]

It's 2% for anything when you use Pay. So that's double what most fee-free cards offer, except for quarterly/monthly categories from 3–5%.

Got a call today — engineers wanted some additional information. I still get the error (unavailable) if I try to apply. :mad: Waiting game for me as well. Frustrating. Let me know, as well, if you get any resolution to this problem.

Someone yesterday had theirs escalated to an engineer. Haven’t heard from them yet.
 
That was probably me. Escalated to engineers on Tuesday (about 3 hours after I had received the email invite). Still no resolution... :(

that sucks! You’re not alone tho. At least yours was escalated. They couldn’t help me for being on iOS 13. But something has to be wrong on their end seeing how a lot of people are able to apply and there’s a handful with invites getting an error.
 
Hi have been checking this site all day seeing if there has been any big news. I have still not received a letter and no offer when I click the + button. Even tried the link hundreds of times, no go. There is rhyme or reason to how the invite letters are going out. I’ve been dedicated to the apple brand since the original iPhone. Apple does this on purpose to drum up the hype and we are all obviously drink on the kool-aid!
 
At this point it looks like the invite preview is done. I’ll never sign up for another Apple “notify me” thing again. Now anxiously awaiting launch.
 
Got mine this morning. 12.99% APR.

nice cards you have there :). Gotta love that Hilton 12x the points.

based on what. People have been getting invited for two straight days. I think it will continue until the official go live.

Why do you think it is done. I believe around 2 million people signed up for the Invite. The preview may take a week.

I still continue to sign up. Seeing if repetition wins out. Doesn’t appear they limit how many times you ask to be notified.

The sucky part is is that we have no ideas when the official launch will actually be.
 
a very small balance is still good to maintain each month.a couple hundred dollars each month is fine to carry over. it will not hurt your credit score, just as long as it's a low balance.

WRONG! It's not necessary to ever carry a balance and show you're using the account. I hadn't used a card in over a year until there was a reason to use that particular card.

It's counter-productive for a cash-back card to EVER carry a balance. One interest hit and it'll wipe out all cash back gains. Stupidity!

I think so because the number of new posts with people getting invites has slowed to a trickle. Obviously not scientific or based on known fact - just a feeling.

Anyone get declined yet?
What are the data points?
Several people have posted on here about being declined. One was able to later get approved.

I’m honestly worried about getting declined. I have been working hard to rebuild my credit after a divorce. I won’t post my scores but they are fair. We will see if I ever find out...before the official launch at least. Still hoping for the chance for a preview invite.
