Earlier I saw the bonus was increased from 40k to 50k points and AF waived, so decided to give it a try. Instantly approved for $5k and 23.24% APR (yikes!). I have 7 TU inquiries in the last 6 months, clean file, 3 years AAOA and 6% util. I also received the Hawaiian Airlines card in April which has a $20k limit.

Congrats B335is you should definitely call recon and ask for a higher limit + lower rate. I imagine your scores are probably better than mine when I got approved back in March. They actually declined me and I called recon and was able to get an approval for $5k, called again about 10 days later and got them to up the limit to $10k.

7 inq in the last 6 months but how many new accounts? I have yet to get a barclay card in my wallet. Congrats on landing this card with a pretty great sign up bonus 
Congrats on your new card and on growing your relationship with Barclay's, B! Nice work
