i feel like my apporama was not successful to the fullest if none of the cards got declined

Find one worth fighting for , after you get declined , and then HUCA.

You will feel better then.

If you didn't expect to get approved, it's a bonus if it is, but shouldn't bother you too much if not. Especially if you were approved for 2 others from that bank and threw it in on the low chance that it might slip through.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Nice credit line? I'm guessing you didn't call in.

Are you planning to cancel for an AF refund? Fingers crossed we can finally get a solid data point on this

Denied!
Called recon and got the whole run-around of "Why did you open so many cards and then closed them and reopened them 5 months later?" After playing "I know what your trying to do but lets see how creative you are" with the rep, he rejected me.
Nu nu, I'll try again tomorrow.

Iv'e gotten approved before through recon, usually by closing another card.

I know this sounds vain, but I wonder what the actual card looks like...
Would you be able to put some pictures of the card here once you get it?

Denied even though I had a 33.5k CL on my Arrival.

I guess I could try the lowering my CL by 10k trick and then re-applying later? How long do you have to wait between Barclay applications?

Yep, at first they wouldn't even reconsider me but after telling the rep that I put 200k on my arrival plus last year she reconsidered me, but still said no because apparently opening a citi card in September and an amex in November is just too many new accounts (those were the only two I opened last year). I kept offering to shift cl but she kept saying no.

Barclay's is a joke.

Were you able to immediately redeem your points for a statement credit @ 2cpp?

How long does the airline credit take to post?
(For Barclay's I usually book a SW refundable and cancel after it posts)

Did you close it yet?
