CITI recon - Fax in report?

So I was recently denied for an app for Citi TY and just recieved the letter.  It states denial due to no revolving accounts with a balance and too many credit inquires.  On the bottom of the letter was a statement "Action is required for your application to be reconsidered".  Huh?  So I decided to call the backdoor.  The rep pretty much reiterated what the letter said.  I explained to the rep that some of the inq's were from when I had applied for a car loan back in Dec and just recently refinanced my car. She told me I can send in a new report, with an account showing a balance, to their Correspondance Dept and they would review my report to re-consider my application.  ME send in a copy of my report?  What?  No HP from them?  I don't think I've ever heard, or read, of that!!

 

So I will print out my report on Monday, as one of my cc's will report a balance this month.  I let it report but kept my utility under 9% to see what it will do to my score.  She said to give them 2-3 days and call back to get their decision.  I already took a HP so why not! 

 

Anyone heard of this?

They will still pull your report again. I don't know why Citi has people send in reports. Good luck on recon
