What are typical DP's required for this card as far as inquiries and new accounts? In the past 6 months I've had 3 inquiries. One was a new credit card, One denial of citi custom cash due to apping immediately after getting approved for another card, and the other was a car loan. So 3/6 inquiries and 2/6 new accounts.
if you see this on your CK you might stand a chance because they analyze your chances of getting approval

Unfortunately, this isn't really the case @creditfan. CK, like any other CMS, peddles all kinds of products without really any guarantees of approval. While it's possible that anyone with a very strong profile (all things considered) could get approved, seldom is CK a reliable or solid source for approvals. If you notice, it clearly states "suggested" not pre-approved as far as this particular offer goes. Just search around the forums for countless experiences on this.

Their normal site still shows $200. So if been holding off and since the holidays are around the corner, it might be an easy $300 for those that have thinking about card and push them over the edge.
Oh snap... as if this one wasn't tempting enough as it is!
I'm trying to hold-off until the first of the year to increase my chances of success, hopefully this offer will still be around then. <fingers crossed>
Aw, but remember ... "opportunity knocks but once"! 
This offer is VERY tempting. I'm hesitant to go for it since I am 1/6 and 3/12 on EX inquiries and new accounts and I know that Citi can be inquiry sensitive.
Every once in a while I kick myself for getting my CustomCash via PC rather than new signup... but then I remember why I'm gardening.
Wish I had seen this yesterday before I applied! It was a spur the moment spree for me, so unfortunately I did not do the research and only got the $200 SUB. I'd heard that Citi was inquiry sensitive but I got lucky and they pulled EQ which only had one inquiry for me in the past 24 months, the rest of my reports are at like 6-7 inquiries lol. New accounts were at 3/12 and 9/24, but nothing in past 6 months so maybe that's a threshold?
