No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
My original post was here- https://ficoforums.myfico.com/t5/Credit-Card-Approvals/Chase-Freedom-Unlimited-credit-card-approval-...
The card started with a measly 1100.00 CL likely because they were included in a BK back in 2010. I Have had a Discover Card with 12,500 CL for years. I actually had to call them to get it approved because they rejected it initially.
My FICO score on citibank app is 825.
Got an email today and they doubled it to 2200.00 haha. Not anywhere close to my other cards, but better than a rejection.
Can anyone tell me when I should apply for the Amazon Chase card? That is one I could really use for the rewards! RN I have the store card because they would not approve me years ago.
You can try the Amazon pre-approval, however they do not take Chase's 5/24 rule into consideration on the pre-approval.
If you are near or above the 5/24 and feel you won't be approved you can try the affinity cash rewards visa signature card it has year round 5% at Amazon. It normally has additional rotating 5% categories but currently is running a bonus points for spend promo combined with the sub would be around 12-14% cb at Amazon for the next 3 months.
It is unknown if the 5% rotating bonuses will return but as a strictly Amazon card is still one of the better no AF cards.
They only pull EX and are not inquiry or new account sensitive when I was approved 12 months ago I was 6/12 credit cards with an auto loan and 20+/24 inquiries (mostly from auto loan.










Congratulations on your CFU auto-CLI!
Congrats on your Chase Freedom Unlimited Auto CLI

Congratulations on the Chase auto-CLI resulting in doubling your original CL.
Could you share a couple of DPs?What are your spend and payoff patterns?
Congrats on the increase!
You can go for the Amazon Prime Visa because they dont count 5/24 against that card, i got mine when i was at 5/24. Also i suggest you call in and request a higher CLI they will ask you how much want and with your score you can surely sacrifice a couple points.
My Freedom Flex started as a CFU with a $500 limit 1 year ago, after transfering some limits and 2 manual CLI requests, now its at $7500.
Starting Score: 512Congrats on the auto CLI ![]()
