Citi Diamond Preferred Approval AGAIN!

pi-r-squared — Sat, 14 Dec 2024 12:08:14 GMT

I held a Citi Diamond Preferred card that was PCed into a Rewards+. It had a CL of $1,000. I checked the prequalify site and I was pre-selected for Double Cash, Custom Cash, and Diamond Preferred. Since I needed a long BT 0% APR, I applied for the Diamond Preferred since it offered 21 months 0% APR on BT. Thinking I'd get some low CL, I was surprised when it came back for a $6,900 CL!!!

That's a solid CL for a 21 month BT card and I hope it helps you get on your feet

Congrats!

I already have a double cash (and other non citi cards), scores slightly above yours and great uti but I just read where people are getting $500 starting cl and thats def an insult. Im hesitant because of that.

Citi is its own thing..

Ive been denied in the high 600s, mid 700s and right at 800 by them.

Nice win! That’s a solid comeback story; from a $1,000 CL to $6,900 is a serious leap. Pre-selections across multiple Citi cards and then landing that 0% BT for 21 months? Great move. This gives you real breathing room if you need to consolidate or just want a low-cost buffer. Congrats again
