Chase Freedom Unlimited?

Jerry45 · ‎05-07-2017

I have had the Regular Freedom card for almost 3 years now, with no bump in CL etc... Keep getting the green check mark offer for the Freedom FU with a nice APR. 15 months 0% nice also.

Wondering if applying for the FU would be a good idea. Would I be able to close out the regular Freedom and transfer the CL to the new card, and keep the age of account?

Or beeter to just pc to the unlimited and take the HP for a CLI? thanks all

I believe you can get the sign up bonus if you apply for the Unlimited. If you are taking a HP anyway, go for the sign-up bonus.

You could app and get the bonus, and move your CL over to the new account, but you would not keep the account age. Your Freedom would still report for 10 years, but the FU would be a new account (slightly lowering your AAoA)

My feeling too. HP either way, unless chase double pulls me again. Like they did on the Original Freedom. LOL

Good Point Tiger. Maybe move some of my Freedom CL to new card
