I applied for the Chase Ritz Carlton Visa Infinite on January 15th, and after instantly receving the "30 day message", I called into lending to inquire as to what the status of my application was. They told me that the application would be processed in the order in which it came in and that I would receive an answer in writing within 30 days.
So every day, several times a day, I have called into the automated system to check my status. The same thing; 30 days.
Today, I called into the verification (fraud) dept to see if they needed any verification from me and they said that everything was fine. They transfered me to lending, to which I initially declined, but I figured that I would just speak to them and ask if they needed anything from me as well. Everything in both departments were fine. The CSR in lending said that I would receive the card or a letter within 30 days. Same thing as before.
A couple of hours later, I call into the automated system once again to check my status and "You have been Approved.". 
This is my first card with Chase. I am very happy.
The process is a little odd. The review process seems to be hitting a lot of folks in here. Good luck to all of you who are still watiing for an answer on your apps.
Way to score Tri on your first Chase card, and a biggie at that. I imagine those 30days wait periods are killer on the nerves
. Seems alot of that going around. Glad you got approved , but maybe more so the agents at Chase

Thanks! The 30 day message is kind of ridiculous, but I am happy that it took just over a week. A lot of people seem to be in the same process that I was in.

I have made a mental note that I can always count on you to point out the obvious! *Shakes head in amazement*... One post was based on the situation (questions, input from others) and this post is explains the outcome. I am happy about the outcome!
