State Farm is known to pull all three credit bureaus.
Unless you have a pre-existing relationship like insurance with them, it's unlikely you'll get approved or if you do, the lines are small and not worth the 3 bureau pull

and then they deny you!! Tried the card as part of my AOR and now think that it is not worth 3 pulls unless there is a compelling reason to get this card.
I have different expereince than you guys.
I currently have auto and house insurance with StateFarm.
I only got one TU pull and got the card. I know somone else also only got one TU pull and got the card(He has auto with StateFarm, too). I am with 15k while he got 25k. I consider that kind of CL is ok to good.
Neither he or I have account with StatrFarm bank or CC before. All we have are auto and house policy with StateFarm. So I think 3 pulls may only happen to who is not current StateFarm customers. And low CL? I think it's just YMMV.
Got the letter today. I have my insurance with State Farm. Got instant approval for $6000.
does this card offer any rewards , Cash Back . i don't see any on the card page

Yes, that's a real risk. AOR folks should know that the 2nd and/or 3rd could come 8 days later. But some good news: they only pulled TU for me (March 20), and I am NOT a State Farm customer. (Though my wife does have a card; not sure if that matters. It's NOT an "AU".) Luck? A new policy?

Not true. I just got $15K, my wife got $9K last year. What is true: don't do them late in an AOR. I posted on this earlier in the year but can't find it at the moment. (With all the new features at FW, maybe it's a good time for anyone who wants better search to speak up to the powers that be. I did.)

Juggler,
My experience matches that of Hindustani. However, your post suggests that there might have been a policy change. I recall State Farm was giving generous credit lines to those who ended up getting the card 12-15 months ago. Would you mind sharing the state and, if possible, zip code that you put on the application. I think I might be interested to spend a TU inq. on a shot to get their card. Thanks.
I currently have statefarm for auto and renter's insurance. They pulled Transunion and Equifax in CA, but only gave me a lousy $1500 CL.

Did you apply recently, i.e., in the last two months?

What's your avg CL from other cards? And/or HHI?
