Applied while CR frozen? So now what?

All this EQ drama so I froze all 3 CR using TU and EX online apps.  Today I apped for Chase AARP card and got a 30 day response.  THEN it dawned on me that all 3 CR were frozen.  So what happens now?  I called the status line and it said 2 weeks.  I unfroze all 3 CR and, went back to the AARP site, clicked on the Apply button and it said "thanks for applying".

You have to call them and let them know your CRs were frozen, so they can do the pulls. That's if you still want the card.

Tell them something they can relate to when you recon, like you forgot to unlock the reports because you're getting old and senile.

LOL....I should have tried that.  I called backdoor number and told them I had my report frozen because of EQ but it was open now.  She ran report and turned me down.  Said I had.....get this......5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 14, 18 (she was adding them up)  inquiries since March of 2016.  Perhaps I need to do a little gardening?  I'm thinking it's possible that I f&^%ed that up because it may have auto approved if I did not have a person actually counting the inquiries?  BTW, she asked if I unfroze TU so she could pull report, then when she ran it HP'd both TU and EX.

Not necessarily.  Depends on whether it would of been an instant approval or not which most chase cards are not these days.  Depends on the UW as well that looks at it and what type of mood they might be in, etc.  Many factors beyond what you or I know might of gone into it.

Idk. As UW looked at TU she would see 10 new accts in last 60 days including Chase Freedom with $6k SL and a balance of $500 that I rang everyday purchases to get the $150 bonus at 0% APR. A month ago I was also declined for Chase Amazon.

This is good example why Chase is a tuff nut to crack sometimes, you either dont make the 5/24 squad or you have 2 many inqs team. On top of double pulls, almost as bad as going the triple route for Cap One lolSmiley Wink
