Applying for a credit card...?

Question

When I apply for a credit card, will they give me my card number in an email or do I have to wait for it to come in the mail to use it online?

Answer 1

You have to wait for it to arrive.  After it arrives you call a specific number to activate it and can't use it until its activated, either.  Thus, no way to use it until you get it.

Answer 2

you get the card in the mail in like two weeks and you call a number that they send to you with the card to activate it

Answer 3

They will not give it to you like that.  If you are approved your card will be sent in the mail.

Answer 4

they will not give you a credit card number over the phone, you will have to wait for it to come in the mail, and then activate it before you can use it even on line.

Answer 5

You asked if your credit card number will be sent to you via email or via regular mail.  The answer is that it will be sent to you via regular mail.  

The previous response stated "You have to wait for it to arrive", which is just common sense and doesn't answer your question since your question had to do with HOW it will arrive and not IF it will arrive. I apoligize on their behalf.

Answer 6

they will send it to you by regular mail

Answer 7

When apply for a cc make sure you read the fine print .  do not accept cc with an annual fee, you should not have to pay to use the cc.

when you apply the cc will be mailed to the address you provided.

find a cc with low interest rate.

BUT MOST OF ALL REMEMBER TO READ THE FINE PRINT AND TERMS AND CONDITIONS.

Answer 8

THEY WILL NEVER GIVE YOU YOUR CARD NUMBER INSTANTLY. SOME CARDS OFFER INSTANT APPROVAL, SUCH AS HSBC, AND JUNIPER ITUNES REWARDS VISA. THESE CARDS WILL ALLOW YOU TO DO BALANCE TRANSFERS IMMEDIATELY, AND THE ITUNES VISA WILL ALLOW YOU TO MAKE A PURCHASE INSTANTLY AT THE APPLE STORE.
