CK lied

Credit Karma Member

I seen this card and was told I had a poor chance at getting it. USAA sent me a preselect offer via email, 2 minutes later was approved with a very nice credit limit. Guess credit Karma isn't always right.

Credit Karma False Ad?

Credit Karma Member

Saw an ad for this card and my “very good” chances of being accepted and got excited! Being a USAA member since 2008, it made all the sense in the world to apply. I typically don’t apply for the lesser known / high fee/high rate cards, and look at USAA as legitimate. I was denied for the card (shouldn’t have been surprised with my -600 score) then again I went with what Credit Karma said. Looking at other reviews I think it’s best to approach with more caution. I anticipate my score dropping lower… back to the drawing board! Three stars is a middle of the road review because of my appreciation for USAA but the false hope from CK.
