Skypass credit card bonus offers: personal and business
My wife and I were both recently turned down for the 30K mile offer for the US Bank Skypass business credit card. (We submitted our applications online before the May 31 deadline.) We both have excellent credit scores and have not had trouble being approved by Chase, Citi and Amex for both personal and business credit cards in the past.
FWIW, here is the language in the emails we both received:
Thank you for your interest in the SKYPASS Visa(R) Business Card.
We were unable to approve your application based on the information you provided. You will receive additional information on your application request via U.S. Mail in 7-10 days.
Is there a best number to call to request reconsideration and any advice on how to pursue reconsideration?

The phone number I used is 800-947-1444. You first get recorded info regarding your app, but later can connect to a live person. I wasn't calling for reconsideration, just to find out what was taking so long for their decision, so I can't offer any help on what to tell them.

Look at the SkyPass number on your statement to see if it is correct. Although I put my SkyPass number on the cc application, I was issued a new SkyPass number and that was where my miles were deposited. I had to contact KE to merge the accounts.

I had to email skypass, the phone rep suggested I keep the second number since it was already linked to the credit card. Another wrinkle is I also got biz card, we will see if yet a third number is generated

Seven week award hold??
So it all worked out to merge duplicate accounts created by US Bank and I put an award for 2 F seats on ICN-LAX in September, the agent said they would be on hold until two days before the flight which is over seven weeks away.
Can this be right, I read on blogs KE gives a five day hold for awards?
