Citi AAdvantage

Just got approved for Citi's AAdvantage World Mastercard. I had been getting pre-approvals for months now so I thought, "eh why not!" My FICO was 505 one year ago and slowly I've rebuilt to 635 at the time of approval. Feels great!

 

Citi AAdvantage World Mastercard

CL: 5K

FICO at time of HP: 635 (EX)

File Pulled: Experian

State: New York

 

There is hope people! Just be patient!

 

Cheers!

Re: Citi AAdvantage

Congrats nice starting limit

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Citi AAdvantage

It's the platinum version. Are there significant differences between the two?
