Yesterday got a pre approval letter from citi for the diamond preffered. Decided to go for it and got approved for 2k -_- after decided to try for some luv on my Forward and got a 1400 cli with a SP

Im thinking about calling citi and asking them to move my CL to the Diamond and close the forward.

grats on the approval. I wouldn't recommend closing the forward, unless you have no use for it at all.

Forward isnt really useful to me. I havent used it in 6 months. I rather have a card with 6400 cl.

Then Id say go ahead that would really bump your CL, Can I ask why Diamond and not another card by CITI?

I wasnt interested on any other citi card at all. Its just when i saw the pre approval the temptation was too much lol

The 18 monts 0% APR is pretty good as well as the special access to Ticket presales, preferred seating, VIP packages and unique entertainment experiences through Citi® Private Pass®. Enjoy your new card with even bigger CL once you transfer the CL from forward.

Its not that. When i first got it it was my daily card. Its just that the points arent worth much as cash/credit. I dont gift cards and stuff. I rather use other cards.
