Well, trigger pulled AGAIN.
The travel rewards card I had been eyeing was the Chase Sapphire Preferred. The plan WAS to wait to app for this card after I had earned the initial $150 cash back from the Amex BCP.
The Chase Card has $625 worth of travel rewards if $3K is spent in the first 90 days. Just remembered that I booked a big block of hotel rooms for a bachelor party in January, and that would be a great chance to put a big dent in that $3K. Took the plunge, apped, and thank goodness it was instantly approved. I was nervous as I thought I could easily get denied for too many INQs. Called the new app status and they went with a $10K line. At least my utes will go down without making a payment!
FINALLY have both the cards I wanted. Time to resist further apps for at least a year!!
Congrats on both cards!!!
