In my last AOR in Jan, Barclays denied me for "having sufficient credit with them" and wouldn't budge on reallocating credit lines. To add insult to injury, they pulled all 3 credit bureaus. I only have a US MC with 5k credit line which I am keeping as long as I get the 10k anniversary bonus and a BW MC with 2k credit line which I got a few years ago for Grand Slam hits. Both cards have been sock-drawered.
I was wondering if I should just cancel the BW card as I have no use for BW points with the demise of Grand Slam even though it's a no fee card?
I have my eye on that new Arrival card for the August AOR but don't want to get denied again for "sufficient credit". By contrast SPG AMEX gave me $13k credit line as did US Bank on both LifeMiles and Club Carlson so I have no issues with credit history or anything like that.
