Chase Ink Preferred APPROVED

This is my first business card. I was hoping for a 10K+ CL but got stuck with 5500. Appealed instantly for reconsideration for a higher limit. 

DPs: New LLC, FICO 8: (EQ) 798 / (TU) 764 / (EX) 746. Just slipped under 5/24 by a few days. Will pursue the trifecta eventually. Thoughts?

Re: Chase Ink Preferred APPROVED

Welcome to the forum. All the Ink cards are great cards IMO. I wouldn't be concerned with your starting limit. If you show good spend on it and PIF, Chase isn't bashful about rewarding it by handing out auto CLIs. Your experience may vary but my unlimited had a SL of $8k, after the 4th statement cut they gave me a $4k increase, after another 4 statements, they gave me another $10k and had identical time line results on the Ink Cash. 

 

Congratulations on your Ink Preferred approval!

Got word I was bumped to $6K, with a 26.24% int rate. Was concerned about the hefty MSR and missing the SUB. So I got approved today for a 0% APR Pen Fed Gold Visa with $10K CL. Prior planning prevents poor performance. Away we go!

Yeah take the points to the travel partners (e.g. hyatt, sw). Look at the deals you can get in their point systems.

 

Chase Ink Business Cash good for 5x on internet and streaming services. The other one Business Ink is good for general spend.
