Congratulations, @simplynoir! Well worth leaving the garden for! 👍👍
Big congrats!
Congrats on the approval and welcome to the AR club
Now go and samsung pay the heck out of it
Not the 3x cli for AMEX.
But other than AMEX, I received my largest cli on this card.
A $5k cli which took me from $10k to $15k.

Can you share the work around ? I want to open checking and savings account to obtain the AR, but I’m not within there geographical either.
Thanks !!
Congrats on the killer starting line
It's pretty niche, in that you require someone who already has a relationship with them. So in my case, I have the cash+. In order to make my daughter a customer without getting an unneeded card, we opened a joint bank account. We could do this, despite being out of area, just because I was a customer. After about a week, she applied and was approved for the AR.
But if you don't mind another card and corresponding score hit, you can simply apply for one (cash+ is quite useful, but any will do). Then, once you are approved, you are now a customer.
Following my daughters and simplynoir successes, I applied today. Some initial CR freeze issues (I opened TU as that is what they pulled for my daughter in the same state, but the claim is that the computer chooses at random) which I fixed. No automatic approval for me, so now waiting....

Finger crossed for you, @longtimelurker! I applied, didn't get an automatic approval but got a call a few hours later from UW. It was pretty standard but hope you get an easier "interview" like @Remedios and not my experience.

Thanks. Just called in, automated system could not retrieve my application info. So waited on line for way too long, and then I was told it was approved 2 days ago (the day I applied). Wish they had let me know! Still, approved for $23K, so that's very nice.
