    I'm pretty sure that when I closed my HSBC card last year over the phone the c/s agent told me I wouldn't be able to reapply for 12 months. Most cards work between 6-12 months.

    Check the terms and conditions of the deal. Some say you can't have held the same product within the last 6 or 12 months.
