Me too.  Guarantee to be approved for the Indigo card.  1.5% cash back and a higher annual fee than my CSP.  Rebuilder card?  LOL... my scores are WELL in the 800s... FICOs even higher than Vantage 3.0.

 

It's like when I looked for Amex preapprovals and they told me to try the Credit One card! Smiley Very Happy

Re: Credit Karma. Get approved or get $50

i have a feeling they wil only gaurantee cards that are sub prime that either dont hard pull someones credit or approve just about anybody... i would be shocked to see the CK Gaurantee for cards like AMEX or the likes. On my app i have good for all amex cards and outstanding for all the subprime (these cards never go away for me) with the CKG on only the subrpime cards. I would like to be proven wrong tho - would be cool to be able to get 50 bucks after applying with places like Citi and getting denied, would make the hard inquiry hurt a lot less lol

Well isn't this interesting...

I admit the idea of having another Custom Cash (via PC) is slightly interesting, but truthfully I don't really need it. 

 

If I was more adventurous I'd go through the motions just to collect the $50, since I'm fairly sure I'm maxed-out with Citi (not to mention my Citi apps always go to manual review).  It's not meant to be, though, so I'll continue to sit on my hands. Smiley Indifferent

Then if you know you'll be denied, go make an easy $50!
