My Freedom was converted from a Slate last month. When I got the new card, it was the regular visa. So i called the number on the back of the card and was told i was not eligible for the Siggie version, but that they would note the account and put in a request. Well today i got a call from Chase asking some basic questions, i.e. income, mortgage payment etc. After they reviewed the info, they said I was approved for the upgrade and the new card should be received in 5-7 days. They then explained the benefits of the Signature card, no pre-set limit etc. Maybe I was lucky, or maybe the request sent by the CSR did the trick.

How long have you had the Slate account open?

Called today and the reprensentatives told me they didn't know and they were not sure what the requirements were for the visa signature, I also noticed to them I had a CS with 2.2K limit which was a Visa Signature card.

Anyways, sent a secured message online because we waited for 15 minutes for a supervisor but they never came on the line.

The only other thing I can do is call on Monday and talk to Chase Sapphire customer service and see if there is anything they can do about the freedom card.

If its any help (probably not) I just applied for a chase freedom and was told I would be getting an address verification letter in the mail (though I had the banker fax my rent bill).

On the first line it reads "thank you for your application for a chase freedom SIGNATURE visa".

I did not ask for the signature in any way so maybe there is some new program rolling out? Or maybe just luck?

I'm beginning to think that most CSRs have access to increase cls, change products, and a number of other requests...it's just that they are lazy and don't want to it. This makes me want to improve my work ethic.

However, it sounds like you got a hard pull!!!! Do you know if they hp you? Why is Chase so damn hp happy!

My Slate was opened in January 2012 with an $8000 CL. No CLI with the Siggie upgrade.

Requested for an upgrade to the Visa Signature via online and this is what they said:

Based on the above, it sounds like they are limiting the Visa Signature cards to only certain credit cards at this point...which is a bummer.
