You don't have a reliable friend who could use some extra cash flow in his business for a few weeks?

No... Is that a common type of friend to have..?

I'm just thinking together with you... sometimes people themselves don't resize the opportunities they have.

thanks! found it. I feel dumb for wimping out on the 10k threshold now.

my issue isn't the spending -- It's how to get the $200 credit, earn/save the bonus miles, and cancel the card to get back the $450 all within the first 30 days!?

this is annoying: i called citi when i got bro's card 2 extend closing date.They told me would'nt close till march. three days later it closed with annual fee and credit. worse part is that there was 9,875$ posted while the remaining charge that would of bumped over 10k was still pending. So no points. got citi to waive any interest fees till the due date that i was told(end of march) but that still leaves me stuck with annual fee. Is there anyway I can try to get them to expidiate points? do they ever do that as courtesy ( say important flight to book) when does the 30 day for af refund hit? anyway to get next statement and day of cancel and still get refund?

Just curious did you get the 200? I noticed that on mine that I switched the date I didn't get 200 right away but on my wife that I left alone I did get it.

What a second application is like:
Rep from South Dakota transferred the call to Maryland.
Prior to reviewing the application, Maryland rep noted that this is second Exec application in two weeks. She just wanted to clarify that the bonus may not come a second time.
After a hold of two minutes, rep reported that current combined credit line is very high (due to a bunch of hibernating vanillas). She offered either to approve me of $5K credit line, or to close a vanilla for $10K+. Can you guess the right choice?

Before you ask, EX CR doesn’t need to look pretty.

Did they look at 6 or 12 months?

No idea... I wasn't exactly asking questions, as I wasn't trying to put any ideas in there head.
But FT claims that they will only balk if you have more than six CITI inquries on CR in less than six months.

But CR had about eight hits in the last six months.

They were being very firm with denying me and only having one Citi pull in six months and three in twelve.

Did you offer to move credit around?
I did this preemptively, based on FT advice.

So you were approved easily. Nice

I did. They weren't happy with how my report looked over twelve months and used that as the reason. I'll HUCA again, but they seemed pretty set, even after i had a banker call in for me.

had a conference with a citi and aa rep. The account is set up correctly on citi side, they are waiting for confirmation from aa. Aa rep made a note of the cc number and sent it up to escalate the verification so that linkage will happen.

I think you mean 6 inquires period, not 6 Citi ones.
