Chase Freedom Visa Signature confusion

So...

last month, I was approved for a Chase Freedom Visa with a $5k limit after TWO recons. LOL

 

After finally being approved, naturally I inquired about several other things concerning my new account, including the Signature status.

 

Per this board, I knew that usually a $5k+ limit equals Signature status.... 

 

Every CSR I talked to said that I had the Signature... 

so when I rec'd the card, it did not say Signature below the Visa logo, so today I finally called and was told that I don't have the Siggy, but that in six months I will be eligible to PC to it.

 

I've noticed all of Chase's CSR are American and very nice, at least for the Freedom card. 

 

Either way... didn't like to be confused, but the Customer Service is excellent despite the confusion! haha

 

:-)

 

btw, already paid my balance in full ! ;-)

I think if it was a freedom siggy, it would say signature. Also does Chase report CL on sig cards?

Re: Chase Freedom Visa Signature confusion

The CSR  I spoke to said it was able to be PC'ed after six months, assuming stellar history with Chase of course...

Re: Chase Freedom Visa Signature confusion

Hmm; worth a call in my opinion anyone got the number? :smileyvery-happy:

I have stellar history with chase dating back to the year 2000 when my first auto loan was financed with them and my mom co signed. I still remember dropping that $232 check and the payment coupon off at the branch on the 23rd of every month.

Incidentally I use this method to pay my mortgage... drop off check on 15th. Keep reciept for file
