B of A Recon Success After 3 Denials Calling Recon Number

[unknown_entity]

     I called the B of A recon number 4 times today.  The first 3 credit analysts denied me for the First Tee Platinum Plus MasterCard.  I waited an hour and called back and got a real nice lady there who hooked me up with a $2000 limit!!!!  Wooooo Hooooo!!!!  Chalk up another one to persistance....lol.  If you don't get the answer you want, keep calling back.  You'll get someone to help you out eventually!!!

Super Congrats unknown_entity!!!

Persistence must be contagious in this forum.

I'm glad you stuck with it.

When it comes to negotiation, the general rule of

thumb is " Never accept a 'No' answer from someone

not in a position to tell you 'Yes' ."  Now we're gonna

have to modify that to "If a decisionmaker tells you 'No',

keep asking until another one tells you 'Yes'."

Once again, Congratulations on your persistence and the

new card!

Yes it is.  The lady there said they had over 300 credit analysts. I could have called for weeks and never gotten the same one twice.....lol.

This just goes to show that success can be more perspiration than inspiration. Congratulations!
