Due to some travelling and a few new suits, I'm looking at carrying a credit card balance for the first time in quite a while. I could take from savings to pay them off, but I'd rather not start down that road.
I'm looking at carrying a balance on my Chase Visa of about $2,500, and a balance on my and BoA MC of about $1,000.
I have several other CCs with high limits and no balances (including a Chase Sapphire Pref), so my utilization is still well under 10%. My last remaining baddie is a 6+ year old settled collection account. My FICOs range from 720 to 767.
Chase seems to like me, and it appears they generally don't mind giving multiple cards.
Would Chase frown upon me applying for a Slate card, and transferring the balance from my existing Chase Visa? Or since I have good credit and payment histroy with them, should that be okay? I would then pay off the Slate within the next month or so.
I just seems wierd to request a balance transfer from once Chase CC when appling for a new Chase CC. Am I stressing it too much?
