Citi Platinum Select Mastercard.....Approved

[Anonymous]

Hey guys,

Kept getting pre-screens in the mail from Citi.  Applied today and was approved for 1,600CL.

Not getting a house this year so I can deal with the inquiry until next year.  

All my other cards (Amex, Ebay mastercard, discover, capital one) denied me of a CLI.  My scores are over 700 too lol.  Must be the economy.

Now, time to pay off this 1,500 debt I have racked up in the past year.  Nothing like a challenge

Congrats.

Second Congrats. I hope your requests for increases from Amex or Ebay wasn't a pull or you'll have more than one inquiry

Who did they pull and what kind of scores did you have?
