March app spree yielded 4 cards w/ decent limits and long promotional APRs. I want to take advantage of the no interest money but don't want it to thrawrt any potential CLIs I can get (namely AMEX)
Can anyone share experiences with using a promotional apr (>6 months) and how it may have affected CLI chances?
Congrats on new cards! And great post.
My personal is experience is this: taking advantage of 0% promo on 2 cards has taken my overall UTL higher than it normally is AND much higher than it was at time of AMEX approvals. I also opened my 0% promo cards after AMEX approvals. I have been turned down for CLIs with AMEX due to high UTL (~24% at time of request) and for new accounts. Fortunately they gave me $9.5K to start so I'm in good shape with that.
Edit: But I have managed to get SP CLIs from WF, Citi and Barclays during this time.
