Citi Costco VS and Chase Amazon Prime VS

Pulled the trigger yesterday on a Citi Costco card, Instant approval with a $9000 SL. No prior relationship with Citi. Got a $20 cash card at costco for opening a membership and getting a $60 cash card through the mail for applying for CC at the same time in store. 

 

Also applied for a Chase Amazon Prime VS. Instant approval with a $8500 SL and a $70 gift card on Amazon. Might close my CSP and just split the CL between the Freedom and the Amazon card

 

Not too bad I guess.....

 

EDIT:  I hit the CLI button on the citi costco card todat. Got a CLI from $9k to $14k

That's a really good starting limit on the Chase Amazon. Congrats!

Congrats. Instead of closing the CSP, why not PC it to the Freedom Unlimited?

Good advice, however I am trying to thin out the heard. I would have no use for the FU because I already have a 1.5% cap1 quicksilver.. I transfered the CSP CL to the amazon and the FU.

Requested a CLI on the citi costco card today. Limit raised from 9k to 14k. A sub 10k limit was bugging me. Had to do it Smiley Happy

Did you get hit with a HP or SP?

Re: Citi Costco VS and Chase Amazon Prime VS

Sadly it was another hard pull, but it was minimal effect on my score and was worth the additional $5k. For me, this card is used quite a bit!!
