Citi Double Cash Approval Chances with 5yr old Citi Secured CC?

So i have had the Citi Secured for almost 5 years now. 200cl

 

They review it in NOV-DEC to see if your profile is up to par.

Up until Jan. I had a collection on my report which is the reason im guessing card the never graduated since score were 650-680

But Now are 750-776 FICO8 across all 3.

 

I'm thinking when they review it this time end of year, they will graduate. But since thats end of the year, i really want regular CITI CC but not sure if the secured card is gonna be a positive or negative thing for my app.

 

I'm about to apply for 3-4 cards to help get more prime cards so i can then garden for 1-2 yrs

Will having that Citi Secured card for almost 5 years help with a regular CITI? , especially since co is gone, and i proably fit there profile for unsecured citi card now.

 

Is a certain CITI cc easier, Like the Diamond Peffered. ( who do they pull?) are they inquiry or new account sensitive. ( i have 5 new cc after gradening for 3-4years. But all 5 are now 8 months old.

so it would 0/6 5/12 5/24 inq ex-4 eq-2 tu-2

 

What are my chances of approval with a decent SL

and which card would be the easiest to get in.

I just wanna get my foor in the door with CITI like amex

and start growing the relationship.

 here's my list based mostly of Pre-approvals.

My best card right now is PPMC and the rest

are store or no reward cards.

 

1: FNBO evergreen 7600cl 24%apr- Have not applied yet- EX pull?

2: Discover IT - Preapproved thru SP.   TU or EQ pull?

3: Truist       - Preapproved for all 5.  EQ pull?

4: Citi       - COLD APP- CITI DIAMOND PEFFERED

                or AMEX- BCP already pre-approved. If citi is denied

               then I will go for amex.

 

I didnt have high score last apps. But know that

i can get all these prime cards with good rewards.

i can garden for next Year and half, So all the new

accounts will have solid history by then.

 

 Is there a diffrent card i should go after thats better based on my profile.

 

Based on Pre-approvals recieved.
