    What the hell's a Blue Platium? I think you mean an Optima Platinum. Apply for that and have them override it!

    yep ..sorry blue platinum, I guess thats where i made a mistake when i applied for the unsecured card , but acct manager told me to wait for 1 more month and then apply again and for some reson if denied then call them to overide ..does anyone know what they do when they overide I mean they ran the credit again?

    Nope! No credit check. They already have a copy of it...they basically just punch a few keys, and tell you it's been manually approved. At that point, you should ask about the credit line and try a little negotiating, but don't push it...that's how it went for me anyway! Good luck!

    Um...well, my Optima w/Deposit was @ $200, they gave me $1000 (it was a random #, I'm sure, b/c when I asked, the lady said almost automatically $1000) but I hung up, called new accounts back telling them to close the account b4 I got the card b/c the limit was too low, and with that leverage (I never intended to close, BTW) they raised it to $3K.
