First App Spree: UPDATED!!!!

Anonymous · ‎03-04-2016

So today was my first app spree and I went for 2 cards with each bank.

1. Chase Ink Plus: Pending (went from 30 days to 7-10 days) Update: 10k

2. Chase Marriott Preimer: Pending (2 weeks) Update: 10k

3. Citi Presitage: Instant Approval 17k

4. Citi AA Business: Pending (1 week) Update: 7k

5. Amex PRG: Instant Approval

6. Amex EDP: Instant Approval 9500k

Man these app sprees are stressful lol. So I am 3 out of 6 so far not to bad but I am confident it will end up 6 out 6

If anyone has any insight on the Chase or Citi pending approves that would be great.

UPDATE:

So its been almost two weeks since I did my first app spree and it went well but I had 3 pending approvals two with chase and one with citi.

I can now say that I have been approved for those three cards especailly after being denied for the Marriott card and then calling and reconing.

I would say this is a very successful first app spree I got all 6 cards and now its time to GC.

Just want to say thanks to all of the members that have helped in this process.

ROFLOL
Quite busy today I see

Congrats

Good luck on all pending and keep us in the know

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?

LOL I know I went in, but i have been planning this for months so I will keep yall posted on what happens.

Is the best thing to just sit still or make a move in a few days?

I have good things on both sides as in sitting still or making a call.

lol then you should be golden my friend. my monthly spend is 10% of that lol. but i don't have citi because they don't like me and they don't have anything i really want. nothing against them as a lender, they just don't tickle my fancy. i have too many cards as it is now so i don't need to add to that list
