Based on people applying in SlickDeals, it appears the visa cards applications go through, but goes to "Pending Status". Once the app status is checked, the status shows as "app not received". But if you apply for Mastercard you are getting approvals. So YMMV. Check the SD link below to see what is going on. So beware.
