Should I try again in 9 days for a personal ? I figure if the 60-day rule now applies to me I'd just be extending that by 9 more days and wouldn't lose a hard inquiry. |

I don't think that's 100% accurate. I think that only applies to targeted offers created after you got the card through public offer.
The problem is that many target offers are create weeks or even a month or two before you actually get them, and thus they may have been created based on you not having the card, and are no longer valid if you go the card through a public offer in the meantime. Unfortunately, it's not always easy to tell exactly when a targeted offer was created. If it's one of those offers that states your current miles and how many miles you could have in total if you added the miles from that offer, then it will usually have a date for your miles. But other offers which don't mention your current miles often don't have a date, and so it can be tricky if you get a targeted offer within a month or two after applying for a public offer to figure out if the targeted offer was generated before or after you applied for the public offer.

Just another data point, in case anyone else is trying to do something similar.
I got the Citi AAdvantage Platinum card with the 50K bonus about a month ago and, around the same time, received a targeted offer for the Gold Card with the 60K bonus in the mail. I just applied online for the Gold card using the targeted invitation code and was approved, even though the 12 - 26 month period has not passed. |

What are you basing this theory on? I have never received a targeted offer from Citi so my experience is wholly that of others reported here.

Sounded believable enough to me until I asked her how long she thought I needed to wait before applying again and she said "one week." :confused:
I have called in earlier to close my accounts, but I still see CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® Select card - XXXX Current Balance: $0.00 Available Credit Line: $7,000.00 Last Statement Balance: $0.00 Minimum Amount Due on 12/29/2014: $0.00 Next Statement Date: 01/02/2015 Even though I closed this credit card about a year ago and the business account several months ago, and I have no other Citi business credit cards, there is still a Next Statement Date... :confused: |
Are World Elite and Platinum Select different cards?
My wife got the AAvantage World Elite Platinum card on 4/14. Is the AAdvantage Platinum Select a different card she can apply for? Thanks..

Gold and Platinum are Citi marketing designations. "World" and "World Elite" are MasterCard benefit levels. A bank may issue the same product in World and World Elite versions, but they are still the same product for application and bonus purposes.

She can apply for an AA EXEC card, provided she uses the correct link in the EXEC thread wiki, known as "option 2". She cannot use the current official EXEC app on the Citi and AA sites. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/citi-...-first-69.html She can also apply for a Citi AA business card, and the Barclays US Air card, with a current sign up bonus of 50K US miles, which sometime in 2015 will become AA miles. |
Citi AAdvantage Mastercards
I recently was denied the Citi AAdvantage Platinum Select World Mastercard because I already have a Citi AA Mastercard. Is this common?
|
Many of us have 5 or More AA Ex cards...
Citi is pretty free with their cards... |
What does the denial letter you got say was the reason? Post that reason and perhaps more useful info for you will be possible.

It depends a lot on when you got your previous card.

Citi is pretty free with their cards... But now sadly, the new official Citi links for the AA EXEC, and both of the HHonors cards, do not allow churning anymore. I have gotten both an EXEC card, and a HH Res card, in the past few weeks. But only by using outdated links that Citi has left laying around. The "pretty free" days seem to be over; at least for now. |
Approved for my platinum card about 50 days ago, am planning to apply for my targeted gold offer of 60k points in about 2 weeks.
