If you value customer service, avoid the Alaska Airlines credit card. I’ve never had a worse experience applying for a credit card. With a 797 credit score, I expected a smooth and straightforward process—but it turned into four weeks of frustration. After being verbally approved, I was told my card would arrive in 2–3 business days. A week later, with no card or updates, I called in. Only then was I told—vaguely—that “additional information” was required, though no details were provided. A letter eventually arrived requesting my pay stub and an authorization form to verify my SSN, with the only submission method being through the mail. In 2025, that’s not just inconvenient—it’s concerning. Two weeks after mailing sensitive documents, I called again, only to be told they “never received” them. Even worse, the representative claimed they now had “everything they needed” anyway, and suggested I cancel and reapply. When I asked why I was required to send unnecessary documents in the first place, I got no clear explanation. At that point, I canceled my application. After weeks of poor communication, conflicting information, unnecessary document requests, and a complete lack of transparency, I have zero confidence in this product or the company behind it. Bottom line: The process was unprofessional, frustrating, and left me questioning the security of my personal information. I’ll be taking my business elsewhere.
