CHASE FREEDOM?????????????

Anonymous — Fri, 02 Nov 2012 19:04:02 GMT

I applied for the chase freedom lil over a hour ago and got the need additional 7-10 message. I immediately called the back door number. Upon transfer to a verification rep. She asked me some questions about my identity and asked that I fax in proof of residence and a driver license for proof of date of birth due to the fraud alert on my credit report. She stated they had pulled transunion. I faxed them a copy of my driver license which has my date of birth and address on it in addition to a ss card and several other proof of residence docs.

Does this mean Im approved or what does this mean?

Please help. Im a nervous reck right now.

I would imagine that if they're asking for verification it's good news.

thats' weird they asked for all that... usually they have an automated system that asks you questions that only you would really know. what the dollar amount of your car loan per month is, what county of these you used to live in, etc.

the norm is 3 questions for verification and you have to get them all right, if you get one out of the three wrong they will ask one more and you have to get it right.

She asked me 3 questions. My age, address, and employer name. It was all mulitple choice questions. I clearly know the answer to those questions. What really concern me is only EQ has a fraud alert and TU and EX is fraud alert free. I know those to are fraud alert free because I had to remove it part of my address verification like 2 and half weeks ago for the amex green card I was finally approved for yesterday since it didnt listed a contact telephone number on my credit reports.

Here is my experience with Chase Freedom:

Applied online about 2-3 weeks ago and got the 7-10 message.

Called the backdoor number via this forum and got denied due to: 1 unpaid CO from 2005, high utlization %

Called the backdoor number again a day later and got denied again: same reasons.

Called the backdoor number again a week later and got denied: 2 medical collections 2012

After much work and letters within a week I was able to do the following: 1 unpaid CO removed, 2 medical collections removed from TU ONLY.

Called the backdoor number TODAY, explained my situation and asked if they could pull my TU report. The lovely lady (who I will never forget her name since this has been such an ordeal for me), put me on hold for about 15 minutes then transferred me to the "Verification Specialist" who then asked me a few questions and placed me on hold for about 3 minutes. When he came back on, he congratulated me and said "You're Chase Freedom will come in the mail in 7-10 business days!"

I have fraud alerts on all of my credit reports as well. I was never asked to fax any documents in though, they did ask me a lot of questions that could NOT have been answered by anybody but me, as well as asked me to verify my two previous addresses.

Don't give up hope!
