Barclays US Airways

[yudel]

Applied for the usair 35k link and got this message: “We apologize for the inconvenience, but our website is experiencing technical issues.
Please contact us at 1-866-419-6437 or try again later.”
So I applied using link in reply #462 and got same message as Mimi k and AJK.
Called them and they say I was approved with 5k limit…no idea which app.
For the data miners: I have a us air card that's about 10 months old

This card has basically become unchurnable.

-1111
It used to be every 31 days which is crazy. but its definately churnable. I just got one after 4 months.
I don't do it unless it is part of an AOR

where are you getting this from??? people are still churning and getting the bonus again all the time...it appears that some people are getting more then 1 pull but barclays has been notoriously doing this for a long time...

You can no longer get 3 of them every 31 days.
But as long as the system is catogorically denying the app without pulling your CR than its just a matter of figuring out the new parameters. I'm guessing on 31 days from closing or 90 days from applying. 
anyone want to take odds?

+1

IMO The best way to churn this isto close your old one and then re-apply from right away to 90 days later(whatever you are comfortable with).

From speaking to a lot of people (close to 20 people) who are going for their 3rd or more card, in the last few months if you churn, you will most likely get a letter saying that you've reached your maximum amount of applications. I have 5 of those letters in my drawer.

There is absolutely no basis for your hypothesis that it will work if you wait, the letters state that you've reached the maximum amount of receiving this card.
Please don't -1111, based on you receiving 1 card, a few people have been able to churn 3rd or more lately, but the overwhelming majority haven't. AND NO ONE THAT HAS RECEIVED SUCH A LETTER HAS BEEN ABLE TO RECEIVE THE CARD EVEN MONTHS LATER!!

your original post was:

I understood you were talking about most people who DID NOT receive that letter. Like me for instance even on my 5th card. 
For most people it just got a little slower,
 However back to what you are referring to,
 I still think it will work if you wait a little but I would not -1 that cuz I can't prove it.
Sorry for the misunderstanding

The overwhelming majority of people will not be able to get a 5th card anymore, they will get a letter about reaching the maximum amount, even for a 3rd or 4th. Thus my original statement: This card has basically become unchurnable.

That's when you call and offer to shift some credit to the card.. but remember to freeze your credit reports

No. This is a lot of people who signed up for 1, were instantly approved, canceled, signed up for 2nd, were instantly approved, and get denied on 3rd 4th or 5th, I know 2 who got denied recently on 9th.

Thats a pretty bold statement.

The 40k link has been doing that. I don't remember if they pulled it two weeks ago or a little bit earlier but people are having success with the 35k link...

No one that I've been speaking to, and that's a lot of people.
