I apped for Chase Freedom and was approved after recconing for a limit of 3000, but was denied for the US Airways card. My TU fico is 696 and my other cards are Cap1 Quicksilver with a 2850 credit limit and a barclaycard rewards card with 2000. I plan to recon the US airways card tomorrow and was just looking for some advice on how to get approved. This is my first post and would appreciate all the advice i can get. i plan to garden for the next year until i graduate college. Also my current income is just under 40,000 which is high for being a student. Please give me some input on how to turn that denial around.

Reconning Barclays is very hard (just like Citi). I would just try again in about 6 months.

AMEX BCE (30K), DISCOVER IT (29.5K), NFCU CASH REWARDS (25K), BOA TRAVEL REWARDS (15K), USAA VISA (13K), CHASE SAPPHIRE RESERVE (13K), COMMENCE MASTERCARD (7.5K), CHASE FREEDOM (7K), CHASE FREEDOM (7K), TFCU CC (2.5K), TARGET REDCARD (900)

Congrats on the approval!! Barclays tracks recon requests so your first call is pretty much your best shot and you got it. Interesting that she offered to move around limits, that's good to know!
