Yeah, Chase really seems to not want to be in the starter card business. I'd say that if you profile and income can support it, try getting some starter friendly cards that are known to increase CLs quickly. AmEx, Discover, Sync may all be good options in that regard. Once you start fattening up your available credit and credit file give it another 3-4 months and you can probably hit up Chase again if you really want the card.
