Got put on hold and was told it wasn't possible. Had to decide whether to drop the entire app or just suck it up and get the Infinite.
this is kind of stupid.. the reason why they force you to take the Infinite is so they can charged the merchants more.. or so i read.. i guess if you really really want the Aerogold, just put your household income as $50K or something instead of whatever the minimum to qualify for the Infinite
