One extra thing that I'm not sure is an indicator of UW or not...I have never had a prequal for anything on the Citi site. My DC was a pre-approval mailer. I checked the prequal site right before apping too.
Thanks for creating this thread.. Be good source of info for approval/denials along with any information regarding old baddies, etc for other peoples help... On fence about applying, but need more sample size and data first

+1. My wife wants to apply but I told her to hold off until I read additional data here on the forum. She currently has a 6.2k Simplicity and a $8k Diamond Preferred. One opened 13 months ago and the other over 2 years ago. We currently have the category covered with the 2% BoA Cash Rewarsds (2.2% with 10% BoA account bonus) for wholesale club, Sam's Club MC for dining, and PenFed Cash Rewards for fuel. None of this seems to matter mich to her as she wants this card. I'm holding her off for now but I'm not sure how much longer I can...
Thanks for the info everyone.

Just so all of the Myfico family can see if they changed UW standards or are more lenient/strict with this particular card.
