I applied for chase freedom. i was denied. then denied for recon too. i called back once more and asked them to pull another bureau because my util changed. they approved me this time. upon approval, they stated, i would be getting $100 cash back after spending $500. but....after reading on myfico.com that others had luck getting the bonus upped, i insisted that i applied for the $200 bonus. i kept it polite and spoke of fairness. she said she'd put it through and see what she could do but no promises. anywho, today, on my chase.com page i noticed there was 10,000 points for $100 in my account. this is after only one charge of 11.88. upon inspection, i noticed the 10,000 points werel listed under 'adjustments'. anywho, i think i just lucked out and got another free hundred, withought even spending the $500! Thank you myfico forums.
thx
