Im just sharing my experiences, of course I had no idea theyre one and the same, but to me it seemed that credit analysts are more powerful and better to work with. Some were nice and some ballbusters, but at the end they got all 3 cards done while the 'recon number' rejected me a few times saying we dont transfer credit or close ccs. Perhaps it was just my luck.....
same here. recon said they'd approve a card only if i closed the other one. analyst cleared it through.

I got a letter in the mail today stating that my request for the British Airways visa has been approved :). Now should I still try with the United card I applied for at the same time? I'm just afraid to mess up the BA card... Any advise of what to say this time? BTW it seems that 888-245-0625 (Credit Analyst - Recons) is a better number to call.
To all the folks out there who have been denied for the ba card...TAKE HEART!!!I was denied like all the rest of us and after calling a few times the Application reconsideration number I was told that I would have to prove my income etc... So I called the credit analyst number (1888-245-0625) and first they told me exactly what I was been told till now. I got another phone call and I hung up without even saying bye. After I finished my phone call I receive a phone call from Chase. The guy basicaly told me that I didnt give him a chance to finish his sentence (!) and they can approve me for 5,000 if I answered a few 'security' questions!

First of all, if you haven't offered to transfer credit lines or close 'em, call back and ask.

Also, call towards the end of 30 days from your application date (but not 30 or more), maybe you'll have better luck then.

look my post again please .

i offered them 5 times to close my card the co . and then to get the sapphire card but thay keep on saying that thay need a active card in this cace the sapphire card to transfer the credit line to it. cuz thay need to fill in a number in the blank spot so without having the cc number thay are not able to do that

spoke to recon and cs rep then a superviser even the landing dept. i dont want my account should be red flaged cuz of my calling so much
or i should call after getting the 50k points form co posted to my account ?!?!

I guess they cut down.  the problem was that my card didnt come till a month after the app.  they are so slow compared to amex.

I didn't say that contacting the executive office will elicit immediate approval.
Having a relationship with an executive will, though, give you a much better chance.

Reconsideration denied me again after offering to shift credit lines based on too many recent applications, too many chase cards ( 3 and 1 closed) and to high of an overall credit line. is there anything i can do? can i try again or will it be futile?

If the csr is too interrogative, ask for a supervisor or anyone else.
I found that most offshore(read ESL) representatives were robotically wired
with some no-clemency attitude.

Don't give up. It pays off.

I agree.  I spoke with a CSR today at Citi and she swore all day cant do it, cant do it, cant do it but I spoke to supervisor and in one minute she said sure no prob.

So keep at it.
