Chase Sapphire Preferred Application

SweetSpero — Thu, 13 Nov 2025 13:26:36 GMT

I just applied for the Chase Sapphire Preferred and got the message in the screenshot below. I called Chase and they said they'll let me know if approved or I should get a letter in 1-2 weeks if anything else is needed. I have a checking account and credit card with them already, so they should see everything they need. I applied with a friend's referral link, so she can also get points.

What has you experience been like with this process?

Several months ago, I applied for the Reserve Business card. I too reserved the dreaded "We'll be in touch". They eventually called me and after back and forth, I was declined the card. I called the recon line and was approved. I think employees of Chase do this just to keep their jobs as esential employees. Wait for the letter and if approved, fabulous. If declined, call the recon line.

Best of luck, it is a great series of cards.

Someone called me back shortly after and mentioned they wanted to confirm it wasn't a fraudulent request. We just moved recently, so that's likely why it was flagged.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It can definitely be annoying to have runaround conversations when unnecessary. Thankfully, if was just to confirm this was a legitimate request in this situation.

I did call Chase to see if they can expedite shipment, like others have mentioned. I should be getting it in 2 days instead of a week! They did it for free, too.
