Q: What is the status of my credit card application?

hecard.net Credit Card does not have access to the status of credit card applications or specific credit card account information. If you would like to find out the status of your application, contact the credit card issuer by visiting their website, or contact them by phone. Please DO NOT send us your account number -or- other important account information.

Q: When will I know if I've been approved?

While several credit card issuers offer "instant online approvals", not all credit card companies are as quick to make a decision. In many cases it may take a couple days, and in the worst cases, it may take several weeks.

If you need a credit card fast, please visit our Instant Approval section for credit cards which offer instant online approvals in as little as 30 seconds.

Q: How long before I receive my credit card?

Q: What can I do if my application is not approved?

Credit card issuers are obligated to provide you with reasons for declining a credit card application. You should receive something in writing within several weeks, or you can contact the credit card issuer directly for a quicker explanation. Ask the issuer whether you can make any changes to increase your chances of obtaining a card. More information...

Common reasons for declined applications:

- Don't meet the required annual income.

- Already have several declined credit card applications.

- Credit report contains mistakes or unapproved activity.

- Poor credit rating -or- unestablished credit history.

- Your total available credit is too high relative to your income.
 

Of course, you can always attempt to apply for another credit card. Since every credit card issuer has different standards for evaluating and approving applications, it's still possible to get approved for a different card, or by another issuer whose standards may be different.

If all else fails, hecard.net Credit Card offers several Guaranteed Cards which offer 100% approval, and help you establish -or- rebuild your credit history.
