I did the 3 browser with citi and didn't get approved for any:

Thank you for applying for the Citi(R) Dividend MasterCard(R)
 account.

 Here's what you should know
 Unfortunately, we are unable to approve the application at
 this time because:

 o   You have submitted multiple applications for credit.

 We appreciate your interest and we hope to have the opportunity
 to serve you in the future.

 Sincerely,

 R. M. Pick
 Credit Operations Department

Also I got:

 
Why we're writing you
 Thank you for applying for the Citi ThankYou 3 Premier
 account.  Unfortunately, we are unable to approve your
 request for the account at this time because of the following:

 o   Your credit bureau report shows you have no revolving
 accounts with a balance.

which makes no sense bec. I have many credit cards ?

Business charge, no? There's also regular Gold and PR Gold (unless you have both).

So two days ago I applied for the following using 3BM:

Chase CO
Chase UA
Chase Sapphire.

I also did exactly the same for my wife.

I have searched through 7 pages of this thread and didn't find an answer to my question..... if the automated App Status hotline tells me my applications are all being reviewed, does that mean it's pointless to call recon or some other hotline because I need to wait to be accepted or rejected first?  Or can calling them influence this "review" process?

Personally I wait, but I don't think there's a "right" answer.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

for those of you who call before getting an answer, do you call recon?  because the app status line seems to be totally automated, unless I just didn't have the patience to find a living csr.

I called recon and just hit 0000 til I get a live recon CSR.  You need you app ID though and can get that by calling the  main number.  But I call and just tell them I know its pending but I wanted to call and see if I could speed up the process and answer any questions they might have.  It has worked for me.  Recon has the power to grant your card on the spot so if not on the first try try again....YMMV

No particular reason other than I've had success waiting and it's not worth wasting the time with another argument with the rep over whether I should just wait 2 weeks for the computer to decide first.

Wouldn't faster approval mean faster churn?
