Chase Sapphire Reserve Weird Approval

First of all.. Do Credit Score History even mean anything on Chase targeted offers?

 

I can't apply for CSR because of my 5/24 situation. I don't want to risk my wife on apping because she's unemployed with a credit score revolving around 640ish to 660.

 

I don't see offers on my Chase Account Login, decided to log in on hers and to my surprise she has few targeted Chase cards offers. Offer for CSP, Freendom Unltd, and CSR..

 

Decided to click on the CSR offer, put my income there since I'm basically her support. Of course added me as her AU.

 

BAM!! Instant approval for $10K.. What the What!? Her other card which is the regular Freedom only has a $600 CL.

 

Anyways.. With this weird approval.. We are very happy!

Congrats to her. Wish CHASE approved me for CSR in that weird way lol. But you cannot have a CSR if you have CSP and can't risk closing CSP.

She literally ruined the approval odds.. LOL

 

She has couple of charged offs which was preventing her credit to climb in the 700s. Her FICO revolves around 640ish to 660.

She has 3 cards. Freedom with CL $600, CapOne Plat $1500, and Barclay Apple at $1300.

 

I don't know what else to provide.. LOL

 

I 'm always the person that app for Credit Cards and no way I ever had a 10K instant CL. Had to work hard to climb up the 10K tier LOL.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserve Weird Approval

Honestly if you are in the 640's+ range chase seems to approve alot of people.. Might not be the best apr or CL as she got the min (10k) cl for the card but a ton of approvals of people and chase cards in the low to mid 600's..

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserve Weird Approval

Congrats on the approval. I thought there was a minimum on the CL on the high tier cards?

Isn't signatures usually 5k minimums and above that 10k minimums?

Either way, nice SL!
