Citibank Diamond Preferred Card Denial - Recon??? (Update - approved)

[Anonymous]

Hi,

My credit scores are EQ - 765, TU - 711, EX - 698. Applied for Citi Diamond Preferred card and got denied. Got the reason today "Too many inquireis in the recent months". Is there a Recon number i can call? Are there any chances for them to budge?

Depends on how many Inquiries in the last 6 and 12 months?

I am not sure how friendly Citi is to recons.

I just called the recon number 1-866-336-7285  and got approved. The representative could only approve for $500. I told i already have accounts with 5000, 6500 limit. They said call the customer service at the time of activating the card and they will reconsider the limit using the same pull. I thought the recon folks might reconsider the limit, but does not seem like it.

I think the recon agent did tell you the truth last I heard CLI recons are an additional HP unless this has changed fairly recently.

Congratulations on your approval ..., Hope your recon works out!

Thanks for updating.

Thankfully you at least got the card!  Now you can grow it with CLI's.

Congratulations on your approval!

I would expect a HP if you try to recon the SL based on what I've read here.
