Recon is calling in and talking to a credit underwriter, they have the power most of the time to overturn the computer decision and Barclay is probably the BEST for approval after denial and credit line increases after small approvals..
If you look above on forum you will see "back door numbers" open that and look for Barclay.

+1 to this. Barclays is by far my most generous card. I originally got approved for $2000 and I asked for $5000 for a balance transfer/bigger computer purchase and they had no problems with this. I've also opened like 4 more accounts and they haven't closed my account, which some people say they tend to do. To top it all off, they did an auto-increase to my card to $6500 without asking. Great company, great customer service. I'd absolutely recommend them.
