What to Do Before Asking for Milestone Credit Card Reconsideration

If you call to request reconsideration from the issuer, make sure you are prepared to make an argument for why you should be approved. You will typically only have a shot at overturning a denial if you can prove that your financial profile is better than it appeared on your initial application.
