I have received over the past 3 years several pre-approval notices from Barclaycard stating that I was already approved to go ahead and apply, when I do then I get a denial notice. This puts a HARD hit on a persons credit with all XXXX of the major credit reporting agencies. I again not even 3 weeks of being denied again from Barclaycard received another pre-approval notice asking me to apply. I called the number and the rep insisted that my denial must have been a mistake and to reapply. Sorry but I 'm not as dumb as most of the Americans that these banks believe we truly are. I want them to be fined!! These are deceitful practices which should be stopped immediately!
