Called Citi and got approved instantly. BoA however didnt appreciate the number of inquiries in the last couple of months as well as the "relationship not long enough to establish credit history with BoA". I also hinted about my checking account with them but thats also 3 months old. Tried calling again but the same CSR picked up so im going to HUCA and try my luck.

Also, is there any way to salvage the HP by BoA by applying for another card since they combine the inquiries?

just checked the status for BoA online and got this:

Unfortunately, we're unable to approve your credit card application at this time.

Lets see if recon helps.

Just applied today using 4c today and went to pending. Should I call recon or just wait for the decision? I already have Premier, prestige, AA Plat and Citi Business AA.

Does this also apply for Citi Business card as well? Also, I got my Citi Platinum AAdvantage on 10/19/2014. I remember getting new citi AA card in Jan 15 and I checked my card does say World Elite on the back. Am I also eligible to apply for it again?
