Did you try using referrals?
I think they’re giving people time to rack up their referrals; I got two and nothing came of it.
I gave up on this card and the company. Six months on the waitlist as a Gold subscriber, and I plan to cancel soon. I referred a few people who signed up after me and got off the waitlist much faster.
I emailed support each month expressing my frustration, and their responses have been the same: ‘broad availability by the end of the year’ and ‘we can’t explain or expedite your waitlist status,’ which feels pretty dismissive.
The benefits of RH Gold are rolling back (like getting rid of the 1% deposit boost). I’m switching to BoA and just got approved for the PR card. The difference between 2.625% and 3% isn’t huge. US Bank Smartly seems like a solid option (they launched their card before I heard anything from Robinhood). It’s disappointing since Robinhood has dropped the ball here.

Cancelling Gold and moving to Schwab has been my best decision. Just be careful with Robinhood; they declined my first asset transfer request, then sent a link that accidentally initiated moving assets to them.
I got my Solid Gold card in early September, and it’s been great.
I have friends who signed up right away and still haven’t received theirs. I’ve emailed for updates, but I have no idea why the info isn’t clearer.
It’s pretty annoying.
I got access on day one but ignored it.
I’ve had RHG since ~2019 and have been on the waitlist since day one. I’ll probably get denied regardless, but I’m still curious.
I have my card, but I’ve never used it and probably won’t.
I got my card over two years ago. I guess the wait has gotten worse lately? I got mine instantly in 2022 in California.
Still stuck on the waitlist since day one.
Don’t bother with it. Many people are getting denied cashback for questionable reasons.
