Chase 5/24 Rule and Business Cards

I applied for the Chase Ink last week and low and behold it was declined. Today, I get my letter in the mail and the decline reason was:

 

Too many credit cards opened in the last 2 years. 

 

I wonder if this can be reconned. I thought this didn't apply to business cards. Any one else run into this issue?

According to these articles the 5/24 rule is now applicable to the Ink cards:

As far as I can tell all of Chase's business cards are now under 5/24.

OP that sucks. Yes it falls under that 5 i 24 nonsense. You may be able to bypass it with an in branch preapproval if you have one. Some DP's seem to indicate the Marriott business doesn't fall under 5/24.
