Damn, one of the cards I really wanted!
Yikes. That scares me now.
If you don't mind me asking, how many new cards have you opened in the past 3 months? 6 months? 1 year?
Just trying to get a barometer of what Barclays considers excessive because I've had quite a few apps the past year as well...
I have opened a TON! 20+ of cards... but my fico was 670 TU
40% UTL too

10 new revolvers in the past 3 months
I got denied. letter came yesterday. too many recent inquiries (at the time: 2 on TU,1 from this year and 1 from last and 3 on Ex which they also soft pulled), not enough revolving accounts (which they used as 4 reasons but they were all not enough revolving accounts). They have emailed me the offer ten times in the last week after denying me which is not very nice.

Wow, that's not bad at all INQ's-wise... I think I'll hold off on this card. Barclay so INQ sensitive....

I still don't understand how this can be interpreted as Barclays pushing hard. Other than 40k yo 50k points, it's always been a pay AF card for the bonus.
Obvious just his opinion. No facts to them pushing hard at all. They simply raised it from 40k -50k miles.

New account sensitive. Let's not forget that sometimes they just don't like what they see on a certain profile.
