I'll throw out a life raft I guess. You can technically still app for the adult version if you go through the citi student forward link on the website and do not click on the checkbox that indicates that you are a student/graduate student.


I'm still going to laugh and I'm sure you are too! Woman LOL

I would leave the card open if they have no annual fee. They are not harming anything by keeping them open. I do not believe they do increases before six months, but you can try. That seems like a decent limit to me. You have other cards that get at least 1% so the Citi Forward should only be used for the 5 points per dollar categories.

Jus thinking and appreciate a sugestion in here. Do i close any of the other low limits card that was opened like 2 yrs ago?

And do i ask for a cli when i activate the citi card?

Again happy to finally be on there door steps



Congrats on your approval!  Citi can be very rewarding. 

 

To answer your questions:  Nope, if I were you I'd not close any of the low limit cards unless there's an AF associated.  Just sock drawer them if you don't want to use 'em.

 

Ask for CLI?  Sure, why not?  You might get a "no", you might get a counter offer depending what you ask for, or you might get an approval!  Looking at your other cards, you've got some good CL so I think you've got better than 50-50 chance for a CLI on activation.  If not, use it for a while then ask for a CLI.

Citi is almost as good as Amex when it comes to CLI.  After your 6th statement cuts, you can request a CLI via your online account website.  You ask for an amount and they will either approve or counter and it's usually a soft pull.  If you don't like what they counter, you can ask for more but then it will be a HP.

 

Congrats on your approval with Citi!!

Thanks,I was alittle suprise  with the approval and the credit limit is not bad for a start since i had about 10 new accounts opened 3 months ago 3 existing were closed from the lender right after i opened the new ones and back then citi did not approve the app but yea better late then never we always say
I neded it this prime lender card and i do have a premier card with af but damn is my oldest one and i have my hands tie with it
