Chase Freedom Flex

 

CFF.png

 

 

Declined for a Freedom Unlimited on 12/04 or 12/05.

Declined again for Freedom Flex on 02/12.
Knowing I should give it more time, but too impatient to wait, I tried again just now and they finally let me in the door.
My highest limit on any of my cards! Still can't break the $10k ceiling, but getting very close.

EDIT for DP:
I know they pulled Experian. My FICO 8 was 748. (Went down to 743 after this pull.)
5/24? Smiley Very Happy This makes me about 5/5.
Inquires 4/6, 5/12.
AoOA 6.5 yrs
AAoA 3.6 yrs

Income $52k

 

EDIT EDIT: Once I finally got into my account on their website, I see they had an old address for me in Dallas. Haven't lived there since the mid-nineties. I didn't think I ever had a Chase account before. Maybe they acquired some other bank with which I did have an account. I had a BK back in the late nineties. So I probably burned Chase 20-some years ago and didn't know it. Probably explains why they've been so reluctant to approve me for a credit card. The SL still surprises me a little, especially if I did burn them in the past. It was an instant-approval too.

Re: Chase Freedom Flex

Congrats on your Chase Freedom Flex . . . $9,100.00 SL is a heck of a better SL than the $300.00 Chase gave me -and- I still have the card 10 years later and no auto CLI over that period . . . SMH @ Chase!!!Smiley Mad

Have you requested a CLI? I'm new to Chase and have been just trying to get one of their cards. I haven't paid much attention to the process of getting increases.
