Chase Sapphire Preferred (CSP) approved w/ recon - $10k!

I am so freakin' happy right now! I've been looking for a nice travel rewards card and had my heart set on the VentureCard with Capital One. I had been eyeing it for a good while, but wanted to look and see what else is out there.

 

I was recently able to pay down all of my CC balances and saw a huge spike in scores. 

 

I'm at like 10% utilization now because all of my balances haven't updated. My scores are EQ - 696, TU - 709, EX - 664. 

 

I signed up for Chase Journey (free credit monitoring) earlier and saw that I had a few pre-qual offers for: Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, Slate, and CSP. I read a little more about the CSP and knew that I wanted it.

 

I was hesitant but hit the submit button and got the 30-day notice by mail. I searched for a recon number and called in. Transferred to the Verifications Dept and answered a few questions and approved for 10k! Huge sigh of relief and excitement - this will be my highest limit! Smiley Happy

Wasn't a recon specifically, just a verification requirement.

Congrats, that's huge! Those CCJ prequals seek pretty accurate. That's how I got my FU after burning Chase with a CO and always getting denied.

Hey can you share one data point now and maybe in a few weeks?

Check CCJ tomorrow and see if the prequals are still there. If they're gone, post again when they come back -- I am trying to figure out how quickly they disappear and return!

Anyone else approved through the verification process? I saw I got an inquiry on my EXP report but no update email or more info besides the rep on the phone congratulating me for my approval.

Can anyone share your experience after gettting verifies? Seems like there would be more follow through on Chase’s part to update me with more info, like a confirmation email w/ next steps...

You were approved, they told you so correct? Just sit back and wait for your card.

 

Same thing happened to me. Got approved after security. 

 

They don't notify the Associated Press and send you all kinds of "we didn't change our mind" emails.
