Who has the New Chase Card

orky626 — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:19:08 GMT

Does anyone have the new chase card that is only available to chase customers. I forgot the name but its the one advertised on TV, blue, and let's you choose how you want to pay things off.

Just wanted to know your experience with the card and what type of score I would need to qualify.

I think you mean something Saphire? I believe the feature you're referring to is available to other Chase cards as well not just the new card or new customers. I have the Chase Freedom and it has that feature. I played around with the payment plan feature because I have a balance on it but didn't sign up because I know how much I need to pay each month to pay it off. I also no longer use the card because it has highest interest at 16.24% compare to other cards I have.

I was approved for the Sapphire about six months or so ago with FICOs in the 750 range.

It really isn't anything special, as far as their rewards program and other perks go - I mainly applied as a way to get in with Chase on the credit card front, and because my primary checking account is there, so it's a nice way to establish cheap overdraft protection as well.

It is called the Chase "Slate with Blueprint" Card. I don't have one, but it sounds interesting. Not sure if I want this card or not. Maybe I will wait for some feedback on it.

The Blueprint is a program that is offered with the Freedom as well. It's offered on my MC Freedom, but I've not yet used it.

Slate is replacing Chase Platinum.

Have we figured out yet which card and/or program OP is asking about? I'm terribly confused!

I have the plain vanilla Chase Platinum Flexible Rewards card and I haven't gotten any notices yet.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'll have to wait for my scores to get in the accepted range. The blueprint sounds like a nice feature to have but not too sure its worth the high interest rate.

I believe the OP is referring to Chase Blueprint. It is a set of features available on certain Chase card products to help manage your finances. It is available on Chase Platinum, Sapphire, Slate, Business Cards, Freedom, and Slate/Freedom with Exclusive Benefits. My WaMu card was stolen and Chase replaced it with what I thought was their platinum card. Tried to set up Blueprint and got an error stating my card isnt eligible.

Cant help the OP with scores required for a Chase card, but I think this is the feature s/he is referring to.

You got a Chase card the best financial advice you could get would be to pay the sucker in full every month.
