Re: Think twice before you apply for Citi credit card.

lol, the problem is quite obviously the fact that Citi hates seeing first premier cards on someone's cr. Citi sees first premier and auto denies... it has been well documented here. Close the FP account and reapply. I'm just messing around.....but think about it Smiley Wink.

Re: Think twice before you apply for Citi credit card.

So what was the reason of denial?

 

I feel like you are leaving some pieces of information out.

 

Just  because they have denied you 10 times, it doesn't mean they have poor underwriting.

Re: Think twice before you apply for Citi credit card.

having business accounts sometimes doesnt justify personal credit. if the company is a corporation or a dbf even they could not be held liable for the charges etc... 

 

im starting to think that this thread should be reviewed for obvious reasons. before this gets out of hand.
