So just called at 11:00pm, and auto message changed to "You application is being reviewed, you will be notified in writing of our decision within 7-10 business days" ---- I'm assuming this means a decline?
***EDIT***
Just backdoored all three reports and still no hp's as of 11:00pm Tuesday Night. So if status of app is negative, would have to be because EQ was locked and they haven't tried to repull? but still wouldn't explain ONLY pully EQ. I know they usually pull EX & EQ where I live.
Just to chime in here, I was one of the last few to apply for the Ritz Signature back in August. I had the automated phone line telling me 30 days for pretty much 2 weeks then it changed to 7-10 days. I called verification and they wanted to transfer me to "The Ritz Carlton Rewards Department" or something similar. I figured I had nothing to lose at that point so stayed on the call and nex thing I know, they sent me a text on my phone with a confirmation number and I was approved for 13K.
Don't give up yet. I'd say since you've had on and off 30 day/2 week messages (both of which are supposedly pretty good especially 2 week message) I would give it a try and call verification at (800)278-8830. I didn't seem to get the experian pull until a few days prior to receiving the 7-10 day message (if memory serves me right). When it comes to the 7-10 day message, it seems that either it's a decline, or something more is needed. At that point I see no use in continuing to wait.

Nothing worse than Chase purgatory - hang in there
Also - in my experience with Chase Apps, I never got an email confirmation (until I looked in spam in the case of the Ritz), another time it came nearly a week or so later than it should have.
