congrats on the two cards. I'm so afraid of rejection lol but I'll probably apply for both tomorrow. I'm thinking bofa cli then Amex then csp....
fingers crossed
Good Luck! Remember on BofA, supposedly there is a hard pull for a CLI now, so maybe you want to make that the last attempt. If you get denied for the new cards it doesn't hurt to recon them. I just reconned Chase and Discover on the same day and got them both. They did have small limits, but for me and my score I am just happy to have these cards and will prove myself to them as I go! I just realized the only card I could want in the near future is a PNC card for overdraft protection, but not that important either.

I'd ask two questions, first, if you don't mind sharing, what is your income? Chase appears to have something of a sliding scale for CSP approvals anecdotally, and secondly how long have your other cards been open for?
I don't think you'll have a problem obtaining the Amex, and neglecting the CSP for the moment, I'd go Amex -> Chase CLI -> BOFA CLI personally.
CSP, not sure as approvals there have been somewhat all over the map but Amex certainly appears to absolutely be easier to obtain currently; however, I think it'd be Amex -> CSP -> BOFA CLI. I'd recommend throwing out the Freedom CLI for the time being if you are trying for the CSP. I'd go this route as personally I'd get the likely approval done and out of the way first, let the CSP fall where it may, and expect the BOFA CLI to land on TU anyway which unless you live in the Midwest, is very unlikely to be hit by either Amex or Chase for the majority of people.
Hopefully others with more personal experience in CSP underwriting will chime in, and perhaps also with Amex/Chase combined apps. I was close to instantly approved for a BCP, but my Freedom app is still pending .
+1 what he said ! Great advice !
Also, the BofA will most likely be a HP. When I did my BofA CLI, it was a HP to TU. Fortunately, I had only 2 INQ on TU and they are about to fall off.

Did you get Sapphire or Sapphire Preferred?
I got the sapphire preferred. I noticed on the approval that it only said sapphire, so I called to check and get my cl and they said that it was the sapphire preferred.
I got my Bank of America cli! So happy. I was worried because I asked for 6 times more, but they gave it to me without having to really fight for it. Yay!
Congrats ..i'm very happy for you
Thanks soo much! I am super happy, now I just need to figure out how to get the cards expedited.
