Barclay Card PC and APR reduction

[Psmith]

When I first got my Lufthansa Miles & More card, its APR was 21.99%. A few months later, Barclays reduced the rate to 15.99% without any promtping by me. My FICO score was above 800 for the entire period.

its hit or miss for apr reduction, i see people here saying abs not, but i called back in may said my score has improved since i gotten your card -which it did was around 690 i think when approved and the score on my statement had me at 725 when i called, said i felt the apr is high taking in to consideration my current score, they dropped it from 24.99 to 21.24 no pulls, or hassel.its still my higest apr but i figured i will just call 1x or 2x a yr and see what happens, i dont carry and big bal on it for long so it doesn't really matter to me.  may eventually try to pc to the ring card

They lowered my apr from 24.99 to 14.99 without me asking.

Off subject, but Citi Bank has always refused to lower my Aprs. Just asked and got the usual we review every six months and if you are eligible it will go down. Then they removed my Aprs info from my login website. Right now I am mad...! Why do you not want to keep a customer since 2009 that has three cards? Thinking of dropping the three. The rewards are not that great and it has always been like pulling teeth (no dentist invovled) to get anything done. Yet they throw surprises at me like the Citi Forward Visa Signature Card (5X) and 10.99% Apr. Go figure?

I bet my new SM will have a 22.99% rate... I just know it. They never told me what it was. :/
