Charge something every month on it and PIF, either before the statement cuts or by the due date. Then in 6 mos., you should be in a much better position to get a card you want and/or a CLI w/Barclay's.

I called them back and they told me I have a limited credit history. I have 2 cards, a chase card that was opened and well maintained 12 years ago and a bank of america secured card from about 6 months ago. No late payments and low utl.
I basically stepped out of using credit for awhile until I got that bofa secured card. I read on here that I should have at least 6 months history before I try to apply for anything.
Like I said, I was initially denied but got approved only after calling in. Both the analysists told me that my credit has a limited history but the score is very high. Odd combination.
Time to garden for a year and set yourself up for good TL's!!!!
I applied for the rewards, denied, then I applied for the Apple, and got 1300 limit. I have heard thru this forum that the rewards card is harder to get.

Should be along the lines of the Apple card maybe a little stronger profile wanted.
