CSP Approval odds?

Do I have a good chance at a CSP approval, or should I wait?

 

-Currently at 4/24 with cards.

-Not sure if car loans count towards 5/24 but we did take out a $34k loan (Subaru Outback) at 3% apr last March, currently down to $28k.

-Newest approval being Synch Adorama card 2/19/23 for $2k. Currently $930 balance on the card. 12 month 0% apr that I'm taking advantage of currently on a camera. 

-Scores hovering around 740-753 on all 3 bureaus. 4 inq on EX. 2 on EQ 1 on TU.

-5% usage across my cards, which has gone down as I paid 50% of a balance on one of my other cards. (Hasn't reported yet).

-Avg age of accts 2yrs 1 month.

-No baddies of last month. 

 

I DID however burn Chase in 2008 for like $300. Stupid, I know. I was 18 and making dumb financial choices. Never paid them. Hasn't been on my reports for a long time. But I know Chase has a long memory.

 

Any thoughts/info appreciated!

Re: CSP Approval odds?

The car loan doesn't count towards 5/24. The only thing that's not in your favor is burning Chase back in 2008, since the bank does have a long internal memory. Even though that baddie fell off your credit report, Chase will remember. You're just going to have to apply and see what happens.

Congrats on the approval! I have similar scores but I may need to get some more age before getting approved for Chase's Visa Signature cards

Re: CSP Approval odds?

Very Nice! Even Chase realizes the difference between being 18 and 33 is usually huge when it comes to financial responsibility.
