Instant Approvals
Be wary and suspect of any bank claiming to give you a "instant approval" for your account with this type of issue. No legitimate bank will process your application without a thorough vetting of your business. It is likely a scam or a way for the processor to hold your funds after approving you only to be dropped a few weeks later with no processor and your funds being held. There is no such thing as an instant approval for an applicant who has credit problem. You are likely being misled by an unscrupulous agent or representative that is promising you something that is unrealistic and cannot be delivered. Considering the economic crash of the past few years no banks will offer any type of instant approval especially for someone who has credit problems.
