I couldn't find any exec office number lying around on the "internets", but I'm giving them until tomorrow morning. It's like unless, I'm on top of them nothing happens. I tripled verified that email address they provided, and it was spelled correctly and everything. They confirmed, yet since Thursday of last week no email has been found, which is ludicrous. I faxed my information on Saturday so hopefully within 72 hrs - 84 hrs they'll recieve that too (sarcasm). After waiting two months sending in different documents, I better be approved for that student card.

Hey, guys just reporting. I got approved for my second CC ever, I got the Citi Forward Student card with a $1,500 CL!!! You guys think I should've tried my luck and ask for a CLI to $2,000? Then again I have extremely limited credit history, the only other card I have is my first one by CapOne ($500 CL) that I got last month. So, I guess I should be grateful.
How long do you guys think, I'd have to wait to ask Citi for a CLI? 4 months? 6 months? Also, does Citi hard pull or soft pull requested CLI? Do they auto-CLI at a particular time? I know a lot of questions, but thanks guys for following me, and helping me out!!! Yay!

Very happy to hear you were approved! especially after all that waiting.

Thanks guys, I refused to get a secured card even though I'm just establishing credit history. My next move is to apply for the credit union that my job is affiliated with here in NYC, and DCU to get that free EQ credit score monthly. Then garden for about six months ask for CLI, and look at getting a card with AMEX to start a history with them, and also a Walmart Card for the TU credit score monthly. Sounds like a good plan right? Lol. I've been doing my research on these boards. I love this website.
