Approved for a Chase Sapphire Preferred!!!! 12.5k Starting Limit!!!!!!

Isha82 — Sat, 10 May 2025 15:29:29 GMT

I'm so excited right now!!!! I have always wanted to be the owner of a Chase credit card but I know their rules are strict on giving you a card if you've opened a few within a certain time frame. I've always done their pre approval tool but it always tells me no pre screened offers available. I just realized when examning my annual reports this year that one of my reports is locked from pre screened offers and figured that's what the issue must be. I haven't applied for for a new card in almost two years (trust me I have way more than I need, over $110,000 when combined). 2 weeks ago I applied for two business credit cards which I was approved for (I only wanted one but I did two in case I was declined for one).

A month ago I paid all my credit cards down to zero baalnce except for my SoFi credit card which only had a utlization of 5% and I waited for my credit jumps. Each of my Fico scores rose 45 points or more! Today I logged into Credit Karma and it told me I has good approval odds for the Chase Sapphire Preferred, the Chase Bonvoy, the Chase Disney, and the Amazon Chase Visa. The Chase Preferred had the best offer 100,000 sign up bonus for a limited time vs the usual 60,000 pts and no annual fee and 0% interest for the first year. I thought ehat the heck and pulled the trigger and imagine my jaw dropping when I was approved for 12.5k starting limit! This will be my golden egg and I really don't need any more card right now. I'll treat this one right and grow it nicely. I've heard Chase is very generous to their valued customers.

Congrats on your CSP @Isha82 . It will def grow nicely if you treat it right. At least that's been my experience since getting my first Chase card about 4 yrs ago.

Congrats, it is one of the best overall cards out there. They do seem to increase the limits quickly on the annual fee Chase cards.
