What made me particularly mad was they did not report the AU status to any credit bureau. They initially pulled TU and denied the card. When we talked to reconsideration the agent suggested pulling a different bureau giving the impression that the AU status would make all the difference. But still no notification or approval and I assume two hard pulls.
Are you saying that they are still considering the application after the pull from a different CB? If that's the case and they are still thinking about it perhaps there's a shot. Have you tried reaching out to recon again? It can't hurt at this point and you may get someone more helpful. You can frame the call as a follow-up since they said they were doing another pull to take another look at the app and you just wanted to check the status.
P.S. In terms of your accounts I think the best revenge is to keep getting as much value from them as you've been doing
