just what i thought i knew 300 bucks you transfer wasnt going to be enough for the 10k.I dont think the 10 k makes much of a difference if you have to do a bt.Im happy i got the no af card and the nfl card that's 400 dollars more after 2500 spend which i can do in a 10 minute walk.

Despite my concerns I submitted an App today. Got 10 day notice, then immediately checked app status online - denied. Might call reconsideration later.

Denied due to too many new/young accounts. He really grilled me on why I had so many new accounts and unfortunately I had not prepared a good answer. Analyst wouldn't budge when I offered to transfer credit from an existing card. Oh well.

I applied for the card in mid/end of Nov and got approved for the plat (i had a high balance on one card for the month so i got downgraded despite having high 7's score).

What are the chances if I reapply for the premier world MC or is it too soon? TU score is still high and balances are low this time.

Like several others I just tried this and it said pending within 10 days etc. But when I check online and when I call Barclays, there is no record of me ever applying.

Update: I got email notice of approval within an hour.

hey they already pulled your credit you mind as well call in and try to get it approved.Lucky for me im a good liar since i didnt have anything planned when he asked me about why am i so credit hungry.I really wanted to tell him I want your sign up bonus then put it in my sock drawer then apply again but i went with i think barclays is the leader in the credit card industry and i will like to join them and take over.Ill help them take over in 3 months again after my 35k clears.

I tried the same thing, 35k link then 40k link, got pending within 10 days, and now there is no record of me applying.

I think the 35k link is a safer bet, I think I'm going to try that one too. Only one credit inquiry if done on the same day, and the worst they can do is deny one or both.

I got instant approval on the 35k link, after the pending/no record of applying from the 40k link.

Most complex reconsideration call I've ever had on this card. The representative asked a ton of questions. Nature of work, employment history, amount of invested assets, percentage of income from work vs. investment, etc etc. In the end I was able to get approved with a sufficient credit line, and he confirmed the 35k on first purchase.

Surprisingly, he did not ask at all about other credit inquiries.

Time to take it easy for a while . . .

Just clicked on the link in post #1; it opened to an application.
