The CSR sends us a text to our cell phones to verify who we are, and a couple of minutes later we are approved. We've never been asked to verify income. Then again I have a multi decade history with Citi, and DW a 10 year + history. Don't know if that makes a difference or not.

We aren't asking for extra miles anymore, since our last apps were already 60K. Doesn't seem worth the trouble for a mere 5K miles. And the next set of 4 mailers are for 65K, so nothing to be done, at least at the moment.

Wow, that's awesome. You guys must be blessed.

I just applied yesterday (5/1) after an approved app on 4/18 (last app before that was 2/5), but got auto-denial. Tried calling into various EO hotlines (must've called 7 different CSRs) but they all said they have a rule that they only allow 1 card per product each 60 days so they wont even be able to resubmit my app for recon. Should I keep trying or am I just SOL (maybe I fall into the cursed category?)?
