gary's review: 
I got a pre-approved offer for a card for up to $7,500. I could not find it on www.GetmyVisa.com. I called the phone number that was listed on the application, and got someone who pressured me to purchase the card protection after I had given the information to apply for the credit card. She repeated the reasons why I need the protection several times, even after I had said that I was not interested in it until after I received the card and got written information on the protection. She also told me that she could not tell me the amount approved until after the actual issuance of the card. I hope this is legitimate.

Be very careful with this site. I had a bait and switch trick pulled on my, applied for WAMU with 0% transfer for one year, got a Chase Visa with 3 months 0 interest. What a disaster.

Just recently it was announced that Washington Mutual was going belly-up. If that's the case, then how can they offer this credit card? Also, why when you type in the www.GetmyVisa.com do you need to complete an application for a totally different credit card if you are already pre-approved and have an invitation number? I'm definitely not going for this one. There are too many questions with it.

I also received this credit card offer. I typed www.GetmyVisa.com into the goole search and had the same result as you... A redirect. I then typed the same thing into the address bar and went to the WaMu site where I entered the reservation number from the invitation and... Viola... In 30 seconds I was approved with a $2500 CL.
I had the same type of redirect happen before so be careful with these offers.
