Finally I got approved for my CITI thank you card!!

So finally decided to call my app that was decline and decided to call the recon number. BTW, don't call the CSR they don't know **bleep** whats going on so don't even bother at all make sure you talk to credit analyst about your app. Anyway, he approved me for $3k to start so I'm happy about that. I also called Barclay for the same situation and I got approved as well after calling recon for $2500 to start for the Upromise card 2/2 are pretty good odds....lol

Congrats !

 

Good way to start with CITI.

 

I was also told that the credit analyst don't have direct lines. So all my recons were generally via the CSR and all denied.

 

Forever hated by CITI lol
