Citi APP - Declined... BUT??!!! - President Office Contact Update...

Okay so declined for BK and INQ... I have not heard that the BK would really be a problem after so many years and INQ is fair... he said I could pull my EX and write in to have it reviewed if I think I deserve it.... is that worth it? Any number to call that I can do that over the phone?

 

I was quite impressed that he never said a "letter is on it's way to tell you why, I can't! blah stuff I hate hearing!

 

Further more I figured EX Pull but asked and he confirmed and then I stepped out where I REALLY thought he would read some line and asked score, to my jaw dropping on floor he came back with 692!

 

692!!!! WHAT???! The only thing I could think of is "WHAT, 692 and I didn't get approved!!? HAHA  That is about I don't know 60+ points higher then I would have ever guessed!  Should I apply for Home Depot? or who else? would the bk matter less?

I have always shyed away from EX pullers because to my knowledge it's always been my worst... I think it might be my best now!

Re: Citi APP - Declined... BUT??!!!

I think the co-branded cards are easier to get..As I seem to get turned down for the others..Like the thank you cards and the ones that offer 15 to 18 months 0% intrest free..Which is fine with me..as I don't have any balances on any cards..U get more free stuff with the co-branded cards

Rudy-Did you have to recon any of your apps or were they automatic approvals? Creditaddict let me know how phone call goes etc. I was declined for inquiries. I may also attempt to conact via mail as sometimes I can articulate what I want to say better on paper than over the phone. Has anyone had success calling the number or writing a letter?
