Citi Simplicity Decline

was hoping to get their card for balance transfers, but no go.... yet!  Prequalified online, but when I actually applied, 7-10 day decline.  Received letter yesterday.  I have one judgement that was satisfied almost 7 years ago (about to fall off), and high utilizatiion on all cards about 60% with total CL of $20000.  Score was 641.  I will apply again after judgement falls off in Februrary.

Re: Citi Simplicity Decline

Definitely try to get your utility to single digit %, and I would say just wait for your baddie(s) to drop off.  I saw a 145 point jump in my FICO when I let 60/90 day lates fall off, so letting those baddies drop really, really is worth it to apply for credit.  

 

Good Luck
