It depends what your wife's first name is. Sarah - I'm with AJK. Shprintza - I'm with Meshugener.

Or how pure she is, and therefore it is hard for her to "drei" and stretch the truth with recon.

Applied this morning, instantly approved. Applied again an hour ago, said under review. Called recon, lady said 2nd app had been auto rejected for duplicate. She was skeptical about needing 2nd card, so I explained that I need 2 cards for pers./biz., also threw in that I am switching to Alaska's program instead of Delta (which is true, I don't condone lying). That did the trick. She confirmed some info about my balances at other banks, then approved me, and confirmed bonus.

Thanks Dan and this thread for the tips.

Also stupid.

I call as Mrs. Moishebatchy all the time. Her first name combined with her maiden name, especially when deliberately grossly mispronounced, makes me sound like some Indian dude or something. >:D

If not done at the same time, the second will be flagged as a duplicate.

Did two this morning and got pending for both.

Checked again now, and behold:

Decision:Congratulations, your credit card application has been approved!

Any way to know if it's Visa Signature without calling?

That's what it seems. I only saw this thread after I applied. Hope it ends up as one pull.

Very very good chance it was Visa Sig. They approve almost everyone for 5k+

No one said to have your wife call recon. Or at least I wasn't suggesting that.

Have her authorize you. It's eminently safer that way.

You fraudulently representing yourself as her is playing with fire.
