I was denied due to "excessive obligations in relation to income".
It must be my student loans, although those are in deferment and most likely will be for another 2 years or so. I have no other payments. At this point I doubt I'll get approved for the Cash Rewards card or a PLOC so I'm really hoping my recon attempt results in a higher limit for the Promise.
Ok just concentrate on upping your Promise limit. If denied now, you still have 90 days to show usage and payments. Then you can request a cli again.
this post and seeing people w/BKs get approved inspired me.

So baller4life, are you saying the PenFed Platinum Sig Visa would be a good addition to my recent $15k CSP & Marriott each, plus my Barclays Arrival, in the last 3 months? My scores are above 700.
They have different cards. Check their site to see which one works best for you. But, I definitely believe you could get a nice approval on whatever you choose. ![]()

What are the advantages of PenFed? I don't have to bank there, if I don't want? They pull EQ only in Ca? Less inquires for me..What about my recent approvals?
This thread of full of recent approvals.
Lots of advantages. Generous creditor,open membership,good rates and you don't need to bank there. All you need is a $5 share account. They exclusively pull EQ
