Citi Rewards + EDIT APPROVED

Alright, y'all. I know, I know, I know. Been in the Garden for almost 13 MONTHS. *sigh* I hate to jump the fence, but I'm looking at possible BT options. The Amex ED is already on my radar, but I may need to consider a second card. The Citi Rewards + is the only card that I actually want and would continue to use after the BT. Plus it offers a decent BT timeframe (I'm aware of the 5% fee.). I really don't want any BT cards that I won't want (and would inevitably close) after the fact. 

 

Any DPs you can share for your approvals for this card? My scores (not CK lol) are all in the mid 700s, no inqs in the last 13 months obviously, but a total of four or five in the last two years. AAoA is two years. 

 

Give me your insight!

Re: Citi Rewards +

You'll be good to go. Citi gave me mine in September when I was 5/6, 12/12, and 17/24. Limit was only $1900 but I also have a BK that was 9 years old. With your existing relationship, an approval is all but guaranteed imo.

Re: Citi Rewards +

Thanks for the responses so far, everybody! I feel like I should wait until I pay off the balance from my last statement cut first lol. I don't know if that actually helps but I don't want Citi getting nervous if I have any kind of balance on the DC. I always PIF the DC so I'll be paying it in a few days. 

@Anonymous and @Gmood1 , were you both cold apps or prequaled? I've heard that Citi prequals on the site are like unicorns.
