Chase approval!

I've been rebuilding for over a year. Last year this time. Chase denied me for a Slate with a 690 score. Fast forward to now: Barclays rewards $ 1,500 and then two weeks after I get pre approval for Chase Slate, apply and instant approval at 1k. The next day I get a pre approval for Chase Freedom, I read the forum and decided to app instant approval 1k.  I must say its a big improvement from last year and the best thing is I can only see one hard pull from Chase so far!! So here's the thing, I have high util on my other cards but Chase has the lowest limits, what is your advice for recon for a cli at activation or should I just work on getting my util down? Honestly, I want a cli on the Slate so I can do a bal transfer, right now the 1k is pretty useless for that. Thoughts?

Congrats! In my opinion you should get your utilization below 30% less is better.Thanks for sharing.

Yes I was thinking I can get my util down by the 6 month mark on Chase and I can hopefully get an auto cli. Thanks for responding!
