There no hating about it. Its a ridiculous letter and hopefully the OP did not send it off.

It's been said before, you catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. None of these posters are "haters", they are simply providing their well-rounded advice so that the OP can levergae a better and successful result. That's all. Youngandcreditwrthy, you can also be part of the solution and share with the OP your approach or positive key points for his reconsideration efforts.

to OP:
Is that 12 inquiries in 12 months, or was it over 24 months?

I think the letter sounds halfway decent... What a bunch of haters.
You could modeately alter it, but again.. What a bunch of haters..
Why don't you guys show your example of a recon letter....;-)
Some of us have never had to recon, therefore no letter has ever been needed.
I have to agree with the other posters and say that his letter is both childish and unprofessional. If I was a cheeky CSR (as I'm a cheeky individual IRL), I'd recommend his other accounts for a FR just for what he wrote. This isn't about being a hater, but simply about that letter being immature since he didn't get what he wanted.

Well said and right on point CreditScholar.

If I was the recipient of that letter it would hit garbage can and you'd still be denied. The last thing you want to come off as on a recon is cocky and aggressive.
+111111 in a big way. That letter would reinforce my denial decision.
It's nice that you all posted your opinions; but I don't care. I mailed it and that's that. If I get the card great; if not, oh well it's not like I don't have others. And yes, I fully deserve to be a cocky jacka$$ because this is America.
AMERICA!

I understand why this letter didnt come the way the PO wanted to but for a good reason i might add.
I really think that you should have been a little more careful with that recon letter.
Remember we need the banks more then they need us.Why?....Because we go to them for the simple reason! We need their money,We need the trade line reporting,
We need the credit history.You are right for been frasturated but also you are wrong for thinking we hate on you.
We all in the fico community trying to help and we doing so in a manner of sharing the experience we have.
Eatherway i wish you good luck and hope you get what you wish

And this is why we cant have nice things...
a3quit4s, I hope it works out for you, but I don't think your letter will help. As others have stated it comes off as cocky and immature. When you have to write to someone else, take a step back from the situation, examine your target audience and his/her position on the issue so that you can address your message to them and their needs. They are the one that can help you, you need to meet their needs, not the other way around.
