Chase Bonvoy Approved - 15.6K Starting Limit (after calling Recon line!)

Applied for the Chase Bonvoy card 2 weeks ago online, went to "review" and it was stuck there with no email/written communication for the duration. So, last night I called the Recon line and a very helpful rep asked some follow-up questions (I have a BK from Dec 2014) and within 10-12 minutes they issued an approval with a $15,600 starting limit! I also have the Chase Amazon card (which I had to go through the same process for 5 years ago...started with a $500 limit! Smiley LOL ) which is currently up to a 20k limit (and used occasionally). 

 

Some interesting notes about this...I HAVE opened 5+ accounts in the last 24 months (6 to be exact) and they didn't question that. I also just opened a low balance Checking Account with them, so not sure if that helped, but happy enough with Chase now that I plan on moving my primary personal banking to them vs. Capital One (who haven't raised either of my CC limits with them in 5+ year LOL). Credit scores average 750 across the three bureaus, and inquiries are about 12 average. 

 

Seems like this is one of the best Travel Cards so pretty psyched this went through! Smiley Very Happy

Congrats on your Chase Bonvoy Approval. I am actually looking at the Chase Boundless at the moment. I have somewhat similar stats. I have 8 new acccts, but one is a curve card only showing on equifax. I think that one might not be seen by chase.

Congratulations on the approval. Sounds like you have plans for this baby, and you got a pretty healthy starting limit.
