If you currently have a Chase account, log in and it should appear right below your other account. That's how it happened with me.

The time needed seems to vary a bit with Chase. When I applied for my United card, I got my CL via the automated system about 24 hours after my instant approval. My Ritz CL took a week to be available after another instant approval. I'd suggest checking once a day until the message changes. The 2 week response is standard until your CL is available. I got the same thing until it changed over.

I just applied for a Sapphire Preferred and got the "needs further review" screen. I called the automated line to check application status about 30 minutes later and found out I was approved and the message gave me credit limit as well. I pressed "0" and spoke with someone who confirmed approval and limit.

Try calling the automated line at 800-436-7927, follow prompts for new application.

Good luck!

Hey MrShush!

I've read on another thread that Chase does the recommendation for approval and cl to co-branded partner then ultimately partner approves limit. Thus the delay in CL. I don't know if this is true but food for thought. I read this about both Ritz and Marriott. Wish I could confirm.

i would call the back door number......i appd for a chase sapphire preferred and was given the under review message, i called and was initially denied because of a $27 medical collection i didnt know about that i paid. Got approved after explaining.

Thanks for the info all!

I've checked my accounts with Chase and no sign of anything new and I called earlier and same message. If it is indeed true that there is lag for whatever reason with the co-branded offerings, that makes me feel a little better. I really only applied for the bonus offer--up to 7 free nights after 1K spend in 90 days.

I do currently have 3 Chase cards: Freedom Sig., Slate, and JP Morgan Select.

Don't worry! It'll come soon enough when I applied for CS it took 5 whole (long) days for me to receive an approval notice! No baddies or negs on my report, but they did pull experian which had 2 recent inqs and 4 total in 2 years. Also had a Freedom for a little less than a year w/ $7000 CL, instant approval. FINALLY saw it pop up on my Chase account the morning of the 5th day with a CL of $10000!

Guess they do a lot of manual reviews for whatever reason! Oh wells!

Manual reviews make me sad.

I was thrilled to see the 'Congratulations, your application has been instantly approved!' message, but now I'm bummed.

It does, but all the available credit is starting to get to me.

Thanks!

I got an email with my free night already. Planning a vacation to San Diego at the end of March. Should be plenty of time to hit my $1000 spend to get my other free nights. I hope there are no restrictions on redemption.

Yeah, I've been over a dozen times--have family in SD and Malibu--taking the wife and stepson. He's never been so it'll be a Legoland trip rather than my usual drinking and hanging out.

Spend *shouldn't* be an issue. Just gotta get it in my hot little hands!

Looks like a nice card otherwise. Don't need a chip since I have the JPM but who knows, maybe one day I'll be a world traveler?
