Death of HUCA???
« on: August 23, 2013, 05:41:29 PM »
I recently applied for 2 swest cards - 1 for a biz and one personal - on the recent great promotion.  Have also recently gotten 2 ink cards for 2 other businesses.  Got rejected on the biz sw card and began the HUCA game.  First guy just said - sorry - too many cards recently - you need to season them first.  2nd guy said same thing but only after asking me a ton of questions.  3rd call - lady says - I see that you've already called about this and sorry - can't do anything.  Was bummed that she knew about the HUCA but I wasn't willing to give up - and sent a sm to chase from my bank account with them.  Response I got back:

You're not the first to report such an experience - and there have been many successful HUCAs done since. I guess if sometimes they recommend very strongly that future reps not reconsider your app, their recommendation will be followed. But HUCA in general lives on!

Oh no! Not that too!?

I think we need to wiki this thread, there's too much info being lost here.

So here's what we have so far:
HUCA-Dead
PGGM-Dead
2/3/4BM-Dead

Anything else I missed?

Ya I think that Dan will no longer be posting any new deals.
The forum and main site will now take on the new name of JP Morgan Chase and Co Deals.  :P
All references to DDF shall cease forthwith and will now be called JPMCCD  ::) :P
