No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
This morning I applied for a Chase Preferred Sapphire Card and was instant approved. I was shocked, but not necessarily surprised as I had 0 inquiries and a 730+ credit score. Since I joined this site some years ago, I've made it a goal to get this card as it was absolutely out of reach at that time along with other high profile cards.
I've come a long way since then. Getting my student loan account in good standing, bringing down balances of three cards and with a tipping 650+ credit score. Had plenty of inquiries too. I can't wait to get this card. I heard it doesn't feel like other cards. I'm going to buy a new wallet as well to hold it.
I wish I had applied for this a month ago or so to pay for my car transmission that blew. Then I would have easily spent the $3000 to get those 40k points.
Credit Picture before approval-
EXP- 750 EQ- 747 TRANS- 745
0 Inquiries
4 Credit Cards (2 with balances)
Awesome work!
that is awesome, Congrats..!! I love this card. I just received the card on Monday. It is beautiful and it is heavy but not that much heavier than a typical plastic card. But I had to go thru 2 recons over the phone and another recon with a letter writen to Chase after I received the denial letter....Well worth my time and effort..
Congrats! Awesome progress.
That's good to know, thanks for posting.

I just got it on Monday the 14th and it is Metal. The front of the card just has Chase Sapphire Preferred and your name and nothing else. The back has the Visa Singature logo, account number, name and good thru date.

*SHRUG* Supposedly someone talked to Chase today and the rep said they are no longer offering metal card and that it was experiment. Who knows. Curious about what the OP will get since he got approved today.
Thanks everyone.
Once I get the card, I'll let you know my CL and the texture of it. Quite frankly, the look of the card itself is good enough be it plastic or metal.
I hope I get a metal one though. How epic would it be to walk through a metal detector at an airport and get caught carrying the card?

Careful you might cause the airport to shut down :/ I'm also curious if it's still metal. Congrats btw.
