Finally made my way into Chase credit cards! Was instantly approved for the CSP at a $29,500 limit, which was unbelievable with my credit history (only 14 months).
Had the following cards when I applied:
AMEX PRG — opened 11/2017
AMEX Green — opened 11/2017
AMEX everyday — 11/2017, $3k limit
Discover IT — 4/2017, $4k limit
Also have a 36mo (unsecured) car loan for about $22k that was opened in July 2017. Authorized user on two other cards, both with a bit more history. But the discover IT was the first credit I had in my name opened last year. No previous history, and never a negative remark.
Credit scores were all in the 760-770 range, as I dropped my balances and utilization over the last 2 months. I’ve also been banking with them since 2017, but had no preapprovals/prequalified offers. I was worried I wouldn’t get approved at all since I’ve heard you need at least 1 year of history and another card with $5k+ limit. I was thrilled that I was approved, and dumbfounded when I saw a starting CL 3x my other two CCs combined. And to top it off, I got the 50k/$4k spend sign up bonus plus an extra 30k points for $20k spend in the first year. So excited to have this card coming!
