Online application problems

I haven't been able to get my last 3 online apps to go through. I sent one in last week with no response and no charges to my credit card. I sent another in tonight and still nothing. Any ideas as to why I'm not getting any type of response at all? Thanks.

how many accounts have you recently cycled - i found a time that i needed to only do phone apps to get them approved... all part of the big game i guess

I had the same problem a few months ago(multiple lost apps), I started using code C7L (6 @ .49, 1 @ 9.95, 2 more to buy) and instead of putting in my credit card information, I selected "Bill me Later" option (At the bottom of the credit card page), I have had 6 straight online apps go through within 3dys.

My only guess is that something is failing/freezing when they go to put a temp charge on the cc through, causing the app to be frozen. But thats just a wild guess.

Once you get your approval email with acct#, just go right to the CH site, and there is a spot to pay for your introductory charges with credit card, and then an option to save card for all future purchases.

For some reason using Bill Me Later option also bypasses Sales Tax for me on the introductory offer, which saves me $0.78 (hey...every penny counts!! lol)

I went to Columbia House's join site and clicked on the TV on DVD link. Where it asked for the offer code, I typed HDL and it accepted it (9.95 for 2 sets and buy 2 more at $19.95 to fulfill).

Maybe since this wasn't a linked (through another site) page, it will go through this time... also, the part where it asks for your info looked a little different and it didn't ask for a PSN. Credit card was required though.

I've tried TV on DVD link as well, but haven't had any HDL apps go through in quite some time.

I used the HDL code on my TV DVD online app on 2/9. I haven't received notification yet, but I see my credit card was charged on 2/13.
