Can someone help me please. Applied for the US bank altitude connect card and and got approved for a meager $500. How can I spend $3000 in 4 months to get the bonus? Any way out? Thanks
Did you tried calling them and check?
Or you can pay extra on the account first (make negative balance); and then spend the $3000.

Thanks. I called them and they wanted to do a hard pull again to increase the CL. Would it be worth it? Also, are there any penalties for making the balance negative and paying it off immediately.
I opened citi rewards+ 6 months back and got $250 bonus. So I'm not eligible for bonus points if I apply this card, anybody can confirm please?
You're correct, you would NOT be eligible for the 80k bonus points from this card. Per the fine print:
Bonus ThankYou® Points are not available if you received a new cardmember bonus for Citi Rewards+®, Citi ThankYou® Preferred, Citi ThankYou® Premier/Citi Premier® or Citi Prestige®, or if you have closed any of these accounts, in the past 24 months.

I dont think it is worth it to have a hard pull again - because I believe it would be better to do hard pull for another card rather than the same one!
Also, when I said negative balance, I meant, you pay $3000 to the credit card before spending. Which makes the credit balance "negative". Then you can spend the $3000 without exceeding the limit of $500 for a ding.
Again, my opinion.
They stopped the 1pt = 1.25 for travel back in April of this year. I'm probably going to cancel this CC soon since it's not worth it over Chase Sapphire which is 1pt = 1.5 for travel (in my opinion)
Oh wow… what if I already have this card, is that no longer available to me?

Thanks. I understood. Called them up to ask if I can prepay, and they said I'll have to mail-in a cheque to be deposited to the account. No provision of online deposit before the statement is out.
I got denied too with an 815 credit score. Reason was that I'm not using enough of my available credit. Very odd.
That makes no sense. I don't use much of my available credit either and pay them off every month and I still qualified and got the new card. My husband and I both have over 800 for our credit scores and have about 80k available in credit cards between the two of us and we currently owe $300 that we just purchased and isn't even due yet. Other than that, we don't owe anything.

Spend within $500 and pay your outstanding balance right away?
1. is it for personal only or one can apply for business card too?
2. do you normally cancel after say 1 year or so? Canceling card reduces your score I think, not sure how much.

I'll wait for the 100K points to come before jumping. $800 isn't enough to take a hit in credit score.

This is exactly the reason I ordered this card to pay annual insurance worth $2k
