Cardoffers is a scam. I applied and was approved for several cards through their site and was never credited.Has this been others' experience, as well? I've seen Cardoffers referenced elsewhere in this forum, but I've never used them myself. Anybody gotten paid? Wouldn't want to trade with a scamster.

I applied for the Citi Professional last month through CardOffers and was approved for the $40 bonus. Now I just need to wait for the check. (This was my first time using CardOffers)

hm. yeah, my first time using cardoffers, too. i guess there's not much to lose, but i'd certainly much rather it were on the level.

Is there just one card tier for the Citi Professional card? Are there platinum/gold/whatever varieties? If there is only one tier, what type of card benefits is this equal to?

Thanks

I signed up for this maybe two weeks ago, nothing in the mail yet. Should I have received a confirmation email or anything? Is there a link to check status like AMEX?

Could you please tell me where do you check the status on the website? I'm usually good about digging up stuff like that, but I can't seem to find it.

Actually I was already approved so I had received my card number and etc.. So I just registered online. Sorry if my post was misleading.

ETA: got a call today, that I was approved but only for $1000, asked me if I wanted them to tranfer all but $1000 CL from my Upromise card, which I agreed to.

Samething for me. She called me that I'll only get $1000 as I already have two different citi cards with a limits of 8.9k and 7.6k and I've already exceeded the maximum amount of credit line (13k) i'm allowed to have. This is based on my annual salary of 52k. But she did allowed me to change the credit lines between the cards so that i can have the credit line of 6k on the new card.

Granted, it would have been my second Professional card.

At least they notified you first before closing out one of your existing lines of credit. Those schmucks at Citi closed my OLDEST account in order to open this one, w/o even contacting me first. I lost 16 years of credit history! Wish they would have deferred and contacted me. <sigh>

Thanks OP! Going to apply for one now!

To answer other's questions (albeit rather late), CardOffers is NOT a scam and they DO pay you your money. I applied for a mtvU card and got my $40 check in the mail (I think they dropped the offer to $33 now though). I remember checking it often to see if they were going to pay me, but one day it finally showed in my CO account and a little later on I received the check in the mail.

Edit: I just checked my CO account. I was approved on 7/11/06 and they paid me on 8/30/06. Not too bad.

Hope that helps!
