@JNA1 wrote:So I totally blame a good friend and @Taurus22 that already have this card for this awesomeness! 😂 I joined Affinity around 5 months ago and threw $2500 in their SmartStart 2% Savings Account, with the full intention of app’ing for this card in Jan or Feb AFTER getting 4/24 and going for the Freedom Flex. However, on Oct 1st when Affinity updated their prespproved offers, they gave me a 12.5% offer up to $32,500. You can’t dangle that kind of carrot in front of me, man!! 😂
So I decided to app, fully expecting to get a lesser offer. I apped Tues, and this evening after 3 agonizing days of waiting, I got a Docusign form to sign, and the account showed up on my app tonight. I’m ecstatic with this SL and I’m glad to wait on the Chase card a bit longer to get this great card at that SL!
This approval officially puts me the $200K Club as well!
DPs:
0/6, 2/12, and 9/24 new accounts at time of app
F8 EX score - 778
110K incomeI had 11 CCs - TCL $188K (prior to app)
2% utilization
21% DTI
I've been an Affinity member for 5 months.
Affinity sends out preapprovals quarterly, and these were first I've gotten.
I opened a SmartStart 2% Savings account and 1% Cash Back Debit Checking right after I joined, though I've only used the debit card a couple of times.
Wow, congrats on a terrific approval. That is an insane starting limit. Yeah, the Flex won't give you that. So good move. Is there a limit on the 5% on this card?

Nice, of course, I do have the Amazon card but you say other categories. Home improvement? That would be awesome

The rotating categories are in addition to the base earnings. So this quarter will give you 10% on Amazon , Not just 5%

Wow, very nice and thanks for the info
Congrats on one helluva SL!
It’s here!!!😂😂
I was approved Thurs evening, so I figured with yesterday being a holiday I would be lucky to see it by the end of this week
@JNA1 Huge congrats, that is a fat SL. This will be a great card to anchor your lineup, nicely done!

Congrats again. Itching to get this one as well. Wondering if I need to wait or can I still go for it? I guess if I like a bigger CL I'll better do what you did. My wife got her Custom Cash and the two Freedom Flex cards today as well. The Freedom Flex is still old-style, with embossed numbers on the front of the card.
