On a slightly side note one thing to check is sometimes doing it in branch and checking the details they have for you.
I opened a new credit card in branch a few months ago as I was rejected online a few days before from them and didn’t understand why.
When we did another application the details they had for me on their system were completely wrong in term sof job, salary and such despite my prior application, and salary payments over the past few years.
This time I was successful after amending these but it made me think that no matter the form I filled online the details they had for me on their database didn’t match and could have caused the decline.
Cant say that for sure but it seemed to correlate speaking to the staffs experiences.0
