I applied and while I haven't checked my app status, I have yet to have a credit pull show up (and usually it's 24 hours or so later). Also going from "submit" to "step 3" was instantaneous, usually when a credit pull is involved it takes a few seconds for the next page to load.
I did the web app a few days ago and was stopped at step 3. But after calling in there was no record of my application using the automated status line (800-201-4523). I also had no credit pull reported (I have citi identity monitor).
I decided to call the number listed on the page in the OP (800-479-0141). After giving my info and listening to an incredibly long stream of terms and conditions I was approved for the card.
Note I have two citi cards already (last approval was early August). I specifically applied for the Mastercard as I knew that required a lower CL, and I was approved for just $2000, which I don't find surprising as my other citi cards have high limits relative to my income.
So YMMV. If you haven't applied yet, do so by phone and not using the link in the OP. If you have applied using the link, you can call and check your status. If there's no record it seems like applying again might work.
I guess the only danger is the apps aren't going through but they are being "stored" somewhere, and once citi realizes the error they may submit them as a batch and I'll wind up getting a second credit pull for this app.

I am just concerned cause I did the 1st app---and like a fool (following the directions of staff) I submitted apps 2 & 3.
If this winds up being treated as 3 cc pulls we will never be able to get a card again.
I hope this gets resolved soon---if anyone finds out more info re the links to nowhere please post.

I was thinking of doing the Thank You Preferred, but wasn't sure if you can get both the preferred and premier (anyone know?).

Again, I do feel stupid now...but pulls 2 and 3 were done at the direction of Citi CSR who said up and down the application was def not submitted in any way. In fact app # 3 was done at the direction of a supervisor.
Do I have any recourse?

Has there been any indication as to when this promo expires? I'm debating whether or not to do this application now, or wait until after November when the UA Explorer card for the masses comes out...
Thx

Data point: applied on 10/11/2011 for the Premier card. Got the dreaded 30 day notice. Only one other Citi card (aadvantage visa, 2.5K balance, 6K CL, paid off in full every month). Beyond that have a discover with 0 balance 6K CL, chase marriott (0 balance, 19K CL), and chase continental (0 balance, 15k CL). Credit score in the upper 700s.
