Checking report I had 7 hard inqueries in past six months. The 7th was one from Citi, apparently for the AA MC I just got.

Since I have gotten many Citi AA cards previously with pretty much the same # of inqueries on CR I have to assume that they are cracking down--or cracking up.

Just another data point.
Did the reasoning state 6 months? Or just "recent inquiries"?
