Citi Visa told me I opened too many accounts recently and too many requests for credit.  Will it help to send in a copy of my credit report for them to look at it again because I didn't apply for other cards for  like 2 months...

They have your credit report and they still think you applied for too many cards so i see any reason it will help to send in a copy of your credit report

Just applied for an AA AMEX and Visa Consumer card using FF/Chrome trick.
Instant approval on both...holding my breath now for them to come!

I still have an AA AMEX and MC consumer card open with massive credit lines.

Didn't apply for a business card as I'm still within 90 days of my last AA business card.

Old story if you search the forum.
Fill out each application in separate browsers and click ok at about the same time on both, so they cant say you already applied for one, because they both process the same time.

familiar with that, thought it might be a new trick to help with citi's latest no churn policy.   pretty amazing that you got two approvals even with two active cards.      did you leave blank the ff# or use a new aa account #?

When was the last time you applied for the AA AMEX and Visa Consumer card and got approved?

June 30

Can I ask how many inquiries you had on your credit report between June 30 and this application?

Hmm...have to think.  I know I got the CO Onepass plus, Discover more, and SPG AMEX since 06/30.
And yesterday I got the 2 AA cards and AMEX Business Gold.
Probably some others I'm forgetting also.

i am so jealous! I did all 3 applications (100k links) together in 3 browsers 2 weeks ago (and i havent applied for any in the last 6 months, but have a few current active ones) and I got declined on both personal for being "an existing cardmember" and "multiple aplications" on the biz one!!! I'm assuming that the Business one went thru a second later... BUT HOW DID YOU GET APPROVED WITH OPEN AA CARDS!!!!

It's YMMV.
It's very possible they'll still deny me (even after instant approval) because I've gotten the bonus in the past.

They told me I was refused from that specific offer. They told me openly that I could apply for another offer.

Dan, you went for the 30K or the 75K?

Is the 30K deal right now still the best deal after the 75K-100K?

It's got nothing to do with the offer.  I've been rejected for the 30/35K offers and later accepted.
I went for the 100K this time.

Honestly there's truly no rhyme or reason with Citi.

That's a lot of spending to do...
