Haven't noticed any recently, but I'm just skimming reddit. I thought the consensus was that the 2nd one had to be approved on the same day as the first. Since it went to 2 weeks I'm assuming the first was approved today so if it doesn't change to approved before recon closes, I'd advise doing another recon call to ensure it (as brutal as the first was
) if they really want it. I have recollections of the 2nd app going either way, either the rep sees the first app and just doesn't care or they see the first app and ask why applying for another card. Kind of luck of the draw, like the first call.
