Chase Ink cardholders, this ? Is for you

[370Z]

I work at an established business with large revenue. First card was approved instantly. Second went to 7-10 days, called in and was approved with no questions asked.

I got a decline as I had only one business card reporting, which I should have three. Élan and Dell plus AMEX. First decline in over ten years

I was instantly approved last April without a phone call, have used the card for both business and nonbusiness expenses, and haven't had a problem. I put down that I was a sole proprietor selling goods on EBay. However, I had a long personal credit card history with Chase since the early 1990s, and that probably helped a lot. Its definitely a YMMV type of thing. Best of luck. Can't hurt to give it a shot if you really want the card.

Which is what I plan to do.  Get history with chase (at least two years), and have about two years ob suiness history coupled with Amex business card, should be good to go (knocks on wood).  Mine is service and publishing, and I am honest about business stats, though I do have a bunch of s*** I need to get rid of (eBay).  But I used to supplement my income with eBay, not so interested in that anymore.   However, that triple whammy of chase history, business growth, and established history with business card, should be shoe in (now Amazon gives me pre approvals for their corporate card).
