Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select World Elite Mastercard approval with $11K SL!

I am in the Garden, but...

On Tuesday, I checked my postal mail and noticed that I received the 3RD solicitation from Citi for the AAdvantage Platinum Select WE MC since December 1, 2018.

I have had an AAdvantage # for over 20 years, but never have I received so many solicitations from Citi in such a short period of time.

Took a look at the promo material and noticed a couple of pertinent benefits since I will be flying a couple of times this year.

As most of you know, AA has been charging for checked bags.

Well, since I only check 1 bag when flying and there is a Preferred Boarding benefit, I decided to submit an online app after much

snashing of teeth (I just stated my Rebuild in April 2018 with a 2 year old $300 OpenSky card and a PIF Ally car loan with 9 lates, newest late is May 2015). The 1 FREE checked bag will save me more than the card's Annual Fee and I get Preferred Boarding to boot! They pulled EX and I had 7 inquiries before this app.

When I Apped on late Tuesday afternoon, I got the 7 - 10 day message. So, I called the Citi App Status line and spoke to a Rep who told

me that they needed my latest Pay stub for the App processing and gave me their email address to use. I was also told to wait 48

hours after sending the Pay stub before checking on the status of the App.

So, I sent my Pay stub in on Wednesday and waited 24 hours (this afternoon) to call the Status line. The Rep I spoke to verified that

my Pay stub was received and asked me to hold on for a few minutes while she completed the App processing. She came back about

1.5 minutes later and stated that I was APPROVED with a SL of $11,000!

I have NO prior relationship with Citi.

Many Thanks to all of the myFICO Members and Contributors! I wouldn't have APPed without the knowledge you share EVERY Day!

DPs: EX FICO 8 is 710; Util. is 6%; Highest CL is Disco, $15.5K from $10K SL; Annual income $85K+.

Thanks, the SL surprised me because Citi turned me down for a Double Cash card 9 months ago!
