Decided to go  with the Citi Prestige Card since most of the AA Card benefits I allready receive. Started me with $22,000.00 Should I wait until card receipt to request CLI or call now, and if so, what's the number? Thanks everyone for your tips and advice.

Congrats and can you give me an idea of how many inquiries you have .  Trying to figure out if I should give it a shot now or wait

rembrandt.. Thanks...now taking a closer look at that Card... i live in the DFW area and fly American....so it's looking pretty interesting.

If you fly AA, then the Citi Prestige is a no-brainer, IMO.

When I applied recently, Citi pulled both Experian and Equifax.  I had 4 inquiries on one (most recently July 2014) and 3 on the other (most recently September 2014).
