I guess I done did it this time, **bleep** Citi?????

I was trying to check for pre-approvals on Citibank's website and Citi was like nope, gtfo here, oh no you won't😂🤣😅 with this language. 
“At this time, you cannot check to see if you prequalify for a Citi card online. Instead,check here you can view our full offering of Cards here

 I mean they may as well said (Mod cut - not here please @Howaboutthat -- please be mindful of the TOS)😀with their big bold lettering. I do have 2 cards with them (Costco & Aadvantage) both are in good standing though utilization is a bit high and I've never missed a payment

Is this because I'm existing customer or does a bank (yes a brick & mortar building) really not like me.😢😢😢🤬

Are Citi applications a soft pull first.

Thanks for listening

To my knowledge, the Citi pre-qualification portal has been unavailable for quite sometime.  As far as selecting a specific card and applying for one, it will be a HP.  In the past, checking for pre-qualification offers was SP, but again, the tool isn't currently available.

Umm, that's the same message everyone sees.

Been that way for over a year. 

So, no, it's not because you're existing customer (if that was your question, kinda hard to tell).

Citi hasn't been doing credit card pre approvals on their website for a while now. It's not just you, its everyone. I received the same message from them last year while I was trying to get pre approved for their double cash card.

What does Citi have to do with 5/24?

While I'm certain they have their own UW restrictions in terms of approvals and new credit, 5/24 isn't their "policy", official or otherwise. 

Plenty of people get approved for Citi cards with negatives, so I'm not sure where that's coming from, or "store visas" mention.
