Citi Gold / AAdvantage WMC Approved!!

yudeology101 — Thu, 22 Aug 2013 21:27:37 GMT

Received an offer in the mail today, but since i've been burned down pretty heavily from my recent apps (AMEX Green, Discover IT), I wasn't expecting much from this application. Well, completed the application, click submit, then instant message- APPROVED FOR $2K!!!! By far this is my highest CL out of all CCs I have, so pumped right now!

My background isn't too pretty- 16+ INQ in all 3 bureaus (mostly from last year applying for car loan), scores 647EX/ 640EQ/662TU all FICO scores (Aug 2013). 1% UTIL on all my CCs (AAOA 1.2yrs), baddies include default student loan back in 2009. I have BOA Cash Rewards 1k, SonyCard 1k, Cap1 Journey $750 (upgraded to Quicksilver), Cap1 Secured $500, BBRZMC $300, Bloomingdales Store Card $300, and TJX store card $200.

I'm still in awe that I got approved by Citi w/ my current scores...I thought they were super picky & Inq sensitive? Regardless, I'm happy with the results! In the garden until mid next year to apply for AMEX Delta or PRG.

I know right? I thought World Master Card usually starts with a high CL, but hey I'm not complaining! Called yesterday to see if they can expedite the card delivery, but it was a no go Super excited about the 50k miles sign up bonus!

My wife just received a "pre-selected" offer for the AA Plat MC, with 60K miles after $2K spend. That seems pretty good, are others getting better offers?

That's the best offer out right now. I would jump on it.
