CITI pulled TU and EQ for me...seems like 75% of them pull EQ now.

The pulled EX for me last year, and I am in Minnesota too! They soft my EX periodically as well.

Sometimes it can take 1-2 days before your CR shows inquiry. Wait for a couple more days and you may get an inquiry.

Also remember that sometimes CCCs pull more than 1 CB. For example Amex pulled all 3 for me for my zync.

FYI: They pulled EQ. I was completely caught off guard with this after doing my homework and all!

I am going to recon when my baddie falls off that report in a week!

I've read that this card is pretty hard to get. Basically no baddies and a fico score of 720+ to be approved??

I don't think citi forward should be that difficult. Anything arnd 700 should be good enough. YMMV

Yes. From what I read on these boards, it shouldn't be too hard! My EX has no baddies and my assumption at least a 700. Last I checked it was 680 or so when I applied for my mortgage in Dec. With the only baddie coming off, of course it will rise. However, they pulled my EQ!! If I would have known this, I would have waited till next month. Oh well the app is good for 90 days so I can try a recon with a copy of a new report showing the baddie removed.

On a good note I was approved for Zync. I just need one more card to add to my mix. Now that I have my mortgage, i'm not too worried. I will be buying a car in 18 months so I wanted all my IQ's to be atleast that old by then.
