Approved for Freedom, can I get a 2nd w/EB?

Got approved last weekend for $5,000 and took advantage of the $150 checking account offer. If I got a second card (used only for monthly bills) would that 2nd card be elgible for the exclusive benefits if i link it to the same checking account as my first?

you dont get another $150 for opening up another checking account. you would have to wait 6 months after the acount is closed to get another $150

I want 1 card for monthly bills and the other for everyday spending, it helps me keep things more organized. I might call Chase to see if I can split my credit limit between 2 cards. I had the perfect setup with USAA but Chase's Freedom w/EB is way too good to pass up.

Use your Discover for monthly bills (If you mean utilities and such).

It gives you 2% cashback for that.

I've read of several people who have two Chase Freedom cards, usually one Visa and the other MC. If you were able to get that second Freedom card I don't see why you couldn't sign both up for Chase Exclusives (10 & 10 bonus). Another advantage of having two Freedom cards is that it allows you to effectively double the $1,500 cap on 5% quarterly bonus categories.
