No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
i called Chase lending dept today and they said that when the account number is generated is generally within 5 days of approval and that the activation date will coincide with my app/HP date. This is good since United lounges want you to have your card open for at least 2 wks before letting you into the lounges.
Just a FYI on the United Club access. If you have the United Mobile app, the "virtual United Club card" is available long before the physical card is sent to you. Once the access is activated, just put your phone on the scanner and you're in. No need to carry the card around anymore.
