My uti is about 20% she noted that when i first app for barclays on jan, i had a 80% uti. Then she asked me why i had 9 new acc and my answer wad lame...
I think if i take a look at my report and see what r these 9 acc i can explain them better i think i refid my car twice in the lasy year thats 2 acc and i got a couple of store cards... Keep the advise coming ill call later today better inform nowI'd say this is going to be very borderline. Creditors do not fancy that many new accounts open in such a short period of time, even if your best explanation is "better rewards". Of course, everyone's experience does/will vary ... good luck.
I agree.
They even have you pinned with the 80% util last app you did. Probably best you concede defeat and garden for a good bit (1 year).

Ron.
i'm also going to give it one more shot later this week. THey wanted to know about the accounts since beginning of 2012...even the ones over 12 months(4 of them). the ones under a year(3) were 9 and 5 months old.

They are super hiper picky with new acc prior to, and i believe that after you get the cc they will also ask you. I'm even think of never apping for them even if I get approve. The csr hours are horrible for me here in the west coast, at 2pm they are all gone.
If by chance you are able to get a recon what ever you do DONT open anymore accounts...it will be a death blow to your barclays..

I just applied for the Barclays Travelocity Amex card and called today to know the status of it.
the lady said I was fine in everything, but, I had too many new accounts open the last YEAR!!! 9 she said.
I tried to make my case but she did not bite it!
any help so I can call again and hope to get a different csr?
Thanks!!!
If the accounts are for stores, rewards usage would be an explanation. Other explanations could be balance transfers, miles rewards because you will be traveling soon...any reason that expalins that opening the card gave you better benefits. Good luck.
