Citi Diamond preferred,and the temple of noREWARDS

 
Hello, to everyone on the Fico boards...
 
Soooo......I'm back in with Citi, and off their BLACKLIST  YaY Smiley Very Happy !!!
 
Data 1st: HP Exp.740
Exp.8inq. SL $500.oo
 
A lil Back story,during the great recession,when getting a CC or loan only required a pulse Smiley Indifferent lol I had burned citi for double digit/5 figures...(Not the highlight of my life.)
 
whew...so glad that's behind me, now back in Apr. I apped for the Citi secured CC,not sure why I jus really wanted back in with all the banks I burned. No surprise really, I got  denied...for a secured CC Smiley Embarassed
 
Fast forward.......>>> Oct.
 
Ok so, Maybe a week ago I got a pre-selected invite for Citi Diamond preferred with specific Apr. in letter reading here on the forum, this is a really good sign. For someone looking to be appr. for a Citi CC..... I got really excited cause I never received any of there marketing invites before even when I was a customer. So I figured this is my way back in Smiley Tongue !!! Apped and immediately went to review....
 
A day pass, and I got a Citi email saying I need to call in. And the guy on the phone jus needed to verify me. I jus gave my information waited on hold ...(heart pounding)
 
Then he comes back with " you will be very happy to know, I got you appr. For $500 initial SL I couldn't believe my ears he welcomed me to the Citi family red carpet congratulations everything...I was sooooo...freaking happy  Smiley LOL
 
Now I don't know if it's me being cocky or confident. But I knew I could recon my SL....went to backdoor #'s here on myFICO...called and and spoke with a really nice rep. Explain my concern and  BAM !!!!!
 
CLI +$4500.oo
 
Was gonna push for more but my SL was so low didn't wanna push it
 
 
Citi Diamond preferred CL now $5000.oo !!!!!
 
 
ANY Citi Data/info is welcome.... never thought I would be off their BLACKLIST Smiley Happy Smiley Very Happy Smiley Wink

Congrats for ur foot in the door. Doesnt know if this matters, but i too had financial difficulties, and had to leave Citi at the curb. 4 different cards btw. Fast forward 3 years post BK7, and recently got a Bestbuy Citi visa for 2k. I know its not a real card but good enough foe me.

Thats wonderful news! Much congrats to you on getting back with Citi. The DP card will open more Citi doors for you later down the road as well, since its one of their Legacy cards. I hope to do the same soon myself. Smiley Happy
