It probably also has something to do with people's own computer set up.
Well, I don't know what to say, other than... that sucks. Glad it has never happened to me during all my churning.

True. I just like multiple profiles in FireFox, and thought I'd share how to do it. I make a lot of use of it, as one profile is loaded with greesemonkey scripts, tool bars, etc...and another profile is clean, etc.

Our records do not indicate you were solicited for the offer you mentioned. Please send a copy of the front and back of the offer you received. Once we receive this information, we will review your account and contact you.

since I applied online I do not have the front and back of the offer -so I guess all I can do is submit a screen print of the offer- has anyone else had this happen? If so did you send a screen print and did they confirm? Thanks!
oops - I can't find a screen print of the offer- I searched this thread and one at another site and don't see one- can anyone point me to it? thanks!
I have the printed 75,000 offer. PM me if you need a copy emailed

My friend who is a google employee told me NOT to download any toolbar - theirs included.

I would rather to have separate computers - one for fun one for serious matters that does not allow any junk to populate it.

Hi guys and girls, I'm one of those people whose applications got mixed up by using the same browser! I applied for Biz Visa and Personal Visa literally at the same time (filling out applications in different tabs, firefox) and submitted them 1 second apart. Both were not instantly approved but went to step 4 to register account online. That's where both got mixed, and when I was done with step 4, both application were for Biz Visa and had the same application ID number. Great.

Well, I am happy to report that in the end, it seems like I have been approved for both personal and biz. Since I didn't want to speak to the Citi rep, I called the automated number for both Biz and Personal, and I am approved for both cards. Hopefully I will get the 75k bonus from both! Thank you everyone for your info and advice!

Sorry if this has been answered, but I haven't found it. I applied for the Biz card, was asked for address verification, faxed some documents, and was wondering how long it takes for Citi to verify the address/confirm that the documents are sufficient?

Thanks guys!

thanks - though I looked there and only saw links to the app- no screen prints but I could have missed them I suppose. Schutzee (sp?) offered an email that might solve the problem- will keep you all updated

anyone who hasn't done so - you might check to see if the offer is associated with your card or cards

Balance Transfers?

Does anyone know if Balance Transfers count towards the minimum purchase requirements?

Even though balance transfers are subject to a service fee, it may be a good option for those who don't spend much.

+1 . She is fine with me telling her she just got a new credit card but she is annoyed if she has to do something else.

Nope, balance transfers do not count towards the purchase requirement.

Nope. Citi does not seem to ever have this type of feature, unlike the Chase genre.

Question

If this was posted earlier, I apologize. I didn't see this on the 1st page. Does the Citi BIZ AA Card report to the credit bureaus? I know many of the biz CCs from Citi, Chase, etc DON'T report, so just trying to see where the AA Biz fits in. Thanks in advance.

I applied CitiBusiness eventhough I don't have a business. Like everyone else I put my ss# and claim myself and sole proprietory. Now Citi's asking me to fax proof of business, what's my option? I sell personal stuff on ebay once a while, does thay considered small business?

A copy of your Schedule C would work.

FWIW, I put in an app. for the personal Visa for my wife, just minutes after doing the personal/business combo for me, and on the same desktop and browser (I used laptop/desktop combo for my apps). Both personal apps were instantly approved and we have both cards; they requested proof of business address for the other card, and I'm still waiting to hear on that one.
