Out of curiosity, was the credit limit, low, high or average compared to the credit limits on your other cards?AdidasROXX wrote: ↑ This is my first email and it did actually tell me my credit limit...

Why are people still so excited to get the card? The fee increase is not worth it imo, and a company that changes it on a whim is not to be trusted

This gives me (very slight) hope that mine will be done in a few days as I applied on March 5th as well.AdidasROXX wrote: ↑ 2018-07-31 23.38.11.png
Got my approval email today. Applied on March 5. Let's see how long the actual card takes.

Well a no FX card easily means hundreds of dollars saved every year. So yes it is.john.canad wrote: ↑ Sure, but is Brim worth the struggle and frustration?

However, Brim has already backtracked on the no FX thing. They aren't stating their exchange rates so the chances of it being actually 0% FX are slim.Poutinesauce wrote: ↑ Well a no FX card easily means hundreds of dollars saved every year. So yes it is.

I am done with this company and their endless false promises. Got my HomeTrust VISA and Rogers WE MasterCard in my wallet.
Went to their website, filled out their online form and got the following email:

I recently called Brim, and asked if I have been approved or not (I applied around middle of February). The representative said that if you application is not really on file that means it was declined (which surprised me since I have a good credit score). Thus, applicants who get refused are not even told that hey have been declined, they are still left there waiting.

I wouldn't trust the Brim CSR. I'd bet you are still going to get something eventually.TheStefmeister wrote: ↑ I recently called Brim, and asked if I have been approved or not (I applied around middle of February).

Why were the posts deleted?batcave wrote: ↑ Yes. I saved some screenshots though. Some were in poor taste but very funny at the same time because it was basically juvenile humour. I'm surprised the one dissing the mods remains. That is the tombstone.
In response to your post, I answer with a question. Why would anyone with a TD Infinite Privilege card want a Brim card? Meh
