Has anyone had success getting a store to change their "description" so that it comes up as the correct category for the Citi Custom Cash card? (It's correct when I use my amex there but on my Citi CC it comes up as "nondurable goods, not elsewhere classifi" so it doesn't count for the 5x bonus points.)

I chatted with Citi and they said that the merchant needs to change their description.
Last time I went into Costco they refused to update their description to a grocery store

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Yes. The delivery service for my grocery store was showing as retail and when I brought it to their attention they switched it

Nice!
I emailed the store in question, haven't heard back but hopefully they'll fix it.

What BoA account do I have to open to make it more likely I'll get approved for their CC's? Is there any fees?

Any reason to keep VentureX? Anything unique to them vs other premium cards? Only thing I see is free benefits for added users. Ye I know it covers itself. But I don’t see that as an answer anymore. Especially since you can use the credit and downgrade so you get an extra 300 vs keeping open.

reasons why you might consider VentureX
1. 2 Miles on all other purchases, every day.
2. Capital one airport lounges
3. Capital One transfer partners (such as Wyndham, Accor, EVA, Turkish and TAP)

Cancel Application!
You're not getting the 100,000 points. Don't get the card.

Did you try asking?
I probably would call.
But a dm with an eloquent plea might be the way to go.
don't chat

Don't use the chat feature to talk to a rep.
DO chat up the rep on the phone.  the more they connect with  you, the more they'll extend themselves to help.
