Chase Payment Hold

I made a payment of $2K to my Freedom on Feb 20, but my available credit is still not increased? Any reasons?

Is this a new card? Sometimes they will hold the payment for further verification, especially if its a large or unusual payment amount. Give them a call and they will let you know

is your freedom account new? or are your usual payment amounts much lesser than 2k?

if so, this is normal. Any lender will hold any payments that fall outside your payment patterns, especially if its for a larger sum of money. It may take up to 10 days for it to clear. Basically they just want to make sure there won't be any chargebacks on the payment.

You should call customer service for the details.

Sounds like they're holding the credit limit until they actual receive notification/funds from the bank. This can happen.

Then they are most likely holding the payment because its a new account with a large payment.. It'll go through

FYI it was a payment from WF bank. They deducted my checking balance, on Feb 21 it self.

Another thing is, I made payment of 3K to my United card, from Chase Account. Available credit was updated next day it self. I think WF may be bit slow (Perhaps?)

Did you "push" the payment with WF billpay or "pull" the payment with the Chase autopay?

I use my WF checking for all credit card payments. Bill pay is faster but I prefer using the

individual CCC's autopay system . lf there is screwup, then it is on their system and they have

responsibility. "Pulling" a payment from WF using a CCC's system usually takes 2 days to report on both ends

for me.

If it takes longer than 2 days for electronically transfered funds, I would definitely call to find out what's up.

The funds should clear faster than that and Chase has the money.

Update:

Called up chase CSR. Then he transferred to some other dept, she then said me that the hold is due to new account and it's a very large payment (since my first payment was less). She asked me I can wait till Sat morning for the funds to be released automatically or call WF Bank now. Then, she called WF CSR, after she said that the payment is cleared from WF side. She made my available credit increase immediately.

Thanks every one here for your suggestions.
