Re: Can you recon a chase card into another card? IE: App for CSP, decline, get Freedom?

All 3 scores 700-720.  6 INQ last 2 years.  1 from exp bank, 4 related to my house purchase, 1 from purchasing a car.  1 inq this year.

 

(Broke down)

EX: 6 inq last 2 years. 4 were from house purchase.  1 inq for DCU card last december.

EQ: 1 inq last year

TU: 0 Inq last year

 

Cap 1 qs: 9500

Overstock: 7500

DCU CC: 5000

BOA: 3000

USAA: 2000

Credit 1: 1800

 

300K house, 100K in cars installment loans.  Good mix.

 

AAOA 39 months

Oldest 11 years.

 

So if i apply for the CSP,and they pull, and it declines, do i just immediately app for freedom and just know/hope its the same HP?  Should I call for this, or just do it online?

Thanks again for the help!

Not for everyone. Some are instantly approved membership. I wasn't but have a coworker that was. As stated you do not have to be a member to have their card.

Re: To app spree or not?

ha, i had thought about that, but I do have DCU which I love.

 

I am thinking possibly about trying for CSP at this point, and just doing a CLI request on my USAA. They really owe me some love! I'm stuck at 2000 on that card because I refuse to do an HP for a CLI until the last possible second.

Well I really didn't mean to get into two separate threads. I apologize.  Should I close one?

We need to combine threads.  In the meantime, apply for CSP first, then Freedom.  One will probably be insta approved, the other go pending.  If it ends, wait it out,, do not call recon.  Stronger chance of success if wait.  However, they may want verification for a double app.  If the second app asks you to call, then see if the number is for verification.  DO NOT ASK IF approved.  Just answer verification questions.

LOL...I'm waiting on my 6 months with USAA as well. WHich is either today or tomorrow. You can join as many credit unions as you like. Don't be held to just one

I'm a member of 5 CU's and three other financial institutions USAA/AllyBank/Fidelity. I've been online researching my next financial institution to join the last couple of days.

Never put your eggs in one basket..have choices..

As pointed out by some community leaders, this is a YMMV situation.  We do not know the profile.  Also, if PC Freedom to CSP, lose bonus.


I can only talk about my personal experience. In my personal experience, every time I have apped for multiple Chase cards on the same day they have combined. In my personal experience, any time that I have asked for a CLI the same day as the app, the HPs have combined. In my personal experience, Chase app HPs will combine on the same day.

Depends n where you live.  All HP cli requests (citi, chase) go on TU, while the double pulls go on ex EQ.  So they do not combine (they want to pull a cap one triple pull Smiley Tongue).
