Re: From dissapointment to joy!

Congrats on the cards.  May I ask, how long have you held the Freedom?

I have had my Freedom for 7 months...I have been banking with Chase since 2005, so that may or may not have made a difference...

Re: From dissapointment to joy!

Thanks, I'm considering a Sapphire application soon.  I was approved for $2500 on my Freedom in February, but in the meantime a 2 year backdated Blue with a $6,000 limit has appeared, so I'm trying to gauge how long I should wait before trying the Sapphire.

It may or may not be too soon, but Chase is excellent with recons, so your YMMV...

Re: From dissapointment to joy!

It think it is too soon right now, I'm planning an application around August, which would give me 6 months on the Freedom and get me to 3 years of credit history.
