Chase Preapproval with Specified CL???

[CWESTL]

The CHPT 7 BK was removed from all of my credit reports recently (less than 6 months). I have a Chase bank account, but do NOT hold any other Chase accounts (CC, mortgage, etc.). I've been receiving Chase email offers since the clearing of my CR's and when logging into my Chase bank account online was greeted by several preapproval offers. Theses preapprovals included an auto loan and credit cards offers. However, the credit card "preapprovals" specified the following:

Sapphire Preferred Card - $18K CL

Freedom Unlimited Card - $11K CL

Freedom Flex Card - $11K CL

When clicking on each of the above noted CC preapprovals offers it specifies, "You're already approved for .  .  . a Chase Sapphire Preferred card with a $18,000 credit line." 

Is it customary for an offer to state "you're already approved" with a specific credit line denoted in the offer?

I'm considering whether any of the cards offered are worth pursuing.

I'm not sure if I understand your question. Are you asking whether the cards are worth pursuing or the preapprovals are worth pursuing?

FYI.. Chase preapprovals are nearly a guarantee.

I don't know that you could go wrong with any of those choices and would go with whichever fits your needs the best. Chase's pre-approvals are about as solid as they come, and they can be generous in a short amount of time with auto CLIs if they see the spend.

@fury1995 I was a bit suprised by the specificity of the offer outlining a particular credit line and the other language indicating, "You're already approved.  .  .". Was wondering about the accuracy of the messaging and value of the CSP given the annual fee.

I do not know how common it is, but I can tell you that neither the pre-approval page (when it worked) that offered me the Freedom Flex, Freedom Unlimited and Slate, did not offer me starting credit lines, nor do the offers my B/F received (including: Sapphire Preferred, Sapphire Reserve, and five more).

I'm considering whether any of the cards offered are worth pursuing.

If by “worth pursuing” one means are you likely to have them issue you the card, from what I can tell the answer is yes. If, on the other by “worth pursuing” you mean are they good cards, you will really need to answer that yourself.

@Mdowning30  Great suggestion. I decided to apply for the CSP and was approved for a starting CL of $18K. I'll determine if a product change makes since closer to the one year mark.
