Hello everyone!
So I'm stuck w/ this crazy chic and she's definitely keeping me on my toes at the moment, so my sincere apologies for sneaking my head in different threads from time to time over the past few months
Anyways, I had to relieve my stress in some way from this chic...and there was only one thing that came on my mind! Here we go:
1) Unexpected CLI from Arrival! - Went from $3.5k to $6.5k! I've checked my CC spreadsheet and it was only being opened for 4 months! It was a nice surprise from Barclays, so does it mean that I can request for a WEMC version? (Currently a Platinum version) (9/10/14)
2) To give my token of appreciation to Barclays for that nice surprise, I pulled the trigger on the Apple Financing card, and was instantly approved for $2k This is my 3rd Barclays card in 6months, should I be worried about any AA from them? Nawwww~ Perfect timing as I've been eyeing on that new iPhone 6 Plus! (9/10/14)
3) Wal-Mart- My cat told me that she needed a variety of scented litter cause she's so cool like that, so I took the plunge and app'ed for the Wal-Mart card and was instantly approved for $1.1k!! Got the store version but it's okay, i'm sure it'll grow. Got the $25 store credit after $75 spend deal, so I'll be buying $100 worth of litter when the card arrives (9/8/14)
4) Jcrew CLI- Been hitting that luv button + automated call on a weekly basis, but finally it went up from $1.7k to $1.9k! (9/8/14)
5) Citi AA Gold upgraded to Platinum- My 1yr anniversary hit, called and the upgrade conversion was done very smoothly. It would've been nicer if they gave me the CLI, too, but NOPE.
---NOW THE BAD --
6) US BANK KOREAN AIR Visa Sig- My 3rd try in 3months, received the dreaded msg and called the backdoor and got the same old' I'm sorry you have too many INQs on your file speech. Whew.....I WILL NOT GIVE UP, see you next month US Bank!
7) Citi Thank you Premier- Instantly Denied online, called the EO and went to 2nd manual review. Lady called back yesterday and said no due to too many INQs on my EX file. Bummer.
8) AMEX SPG- SP Denial, but it's okay I'll get it one way or the other! See you next month, SPG lol
9) BOA Virgin Atlantic- Another Instant denial online, called the EO and she told me that my $8k credit exposure between two cards w/ them was enough for now. I had no urge to keep pushing her for another review cause she sounded like she was having a really bad day and was going to kick someon's rear end.
I think....that's about it. Pretty good outcome overall, impressed w/ my work! Now let this troublemaker go back to work and stir up some trouble elsewhere today.
