Is there any credit card that will give you instant approval and let you use right away? I don't think there is... but can someone confirm?

Thanks

If you have a need to purchase something real quick look at expanding your existing credit lines. I haven't seen a credit card that they approve you and you can use it before you get the card. So you have to wait for the card in the mail anyways. I say that with the exception of the Sony card. I think you can use it after an instant approval but only in the Sony shop.

Amazon and Buy.com chase cards allow you to use the card instantly at the respective websites. Other than those and maybe some other website cards specific to the site, I doubt they exist in great quantities.

Hah, completely agree. Although, the Amazon and Buy.com cards I mentioned does give you an instant $30 discount...
