But I already have the Business one (Sole Prop.), why would I need another one if it's pretty much the same card?

because work is work, and your accountant gets pissed off when you book personal travel on the bussiness card.

You don't need to worry about that.  I've yet to have them ask why I want one of their cards and if they do  say you fly SW a lot.  It won't be an issue

Balance issues dont seem to be an issue with chase once your in. Unless we are talking some maxed out ****.

Definitely keep the card open a year and chase will respect you and reward u.

Imho chase has some of the best sign up bonus cards on the market. They have to except the sign up game and they do, just closing the cards out right makes them do a double take.

Approved! but not instantly, I have a combined CL of 48k with Chase, credit analyst said I could wait (up to 48hrs) to see if his manager would aproved to extend more credit or I could just realocate my CLs, which I did since 48k is way more of what I need.....and I don't want another triple pull like last time when they aproved for me Ink Plus and SW Biz.

I gotta say, I got spoiled with instant approvals and this calling in stuff is really not fun, to be fair I can't really complain, I'm 4/4 with Chase! Too bad none of their cards are really worth for me except for their bonuses...

Companion pass I'm coming for you!

thank you all for the advices!
