ash's review: 
I got this card back in January through a pre-approval. Instant @ 1000 with their usual 8.9% offer. About three weeks ago they sent me a letter to inform me they have upgraded my account and asked if I wanted cash back or reward points. I took the cash back. Now I'm just waiting on my CLI... LOL!!!

I like my ESPN Visa which is offered by WaMu. They gave me my highest CL ($2k) and they report pretty fast to the CRA's monthly.

I had my card since July they treat me like a step child I had 0% in the beginning. then shot me up to 16.99 so I paid it off before the 0 then went to cancel. So then they gave me 3.99% until July. Mine has a 0 blance but I asked about an upgrade and they said they periodacally review accounts for an upgrade and will let me know. I had the card for a while and still have not gotten an increase. But it was nice of them to give me the 3.99 for keeping it.

My APR for purchases on the ESPN Visa is 23.99% so you're the lucky one, not me lol

I was approved for this card in 12/2007 thru a preapp as well!!! I was offered 0% till 12/2008 and I took advantage of that and transferred some balances which took like 2-3 days for the other creditor to receive the payment which was really quick.
I was instantly approved for $1500 which at that time was my highest CL now its my 3rd highest. I think it was easy to get this WaMu card because it had only been 11 months since I had established credit and my FICO was around 650 @ the time of application.
Im always getting offered for balance transfers and I recently called in for a CLI but they said they don't do them at the customers request ;( So now its 05/2008 and I'm still at the same $1500 with a 19.99% APR.
Now IM ALSO waiting on my CLI! Other than that its a good card to have.
