Finally Approved for the Chase Sapphire Reserve

[dutree123]

Hi,

A day ago I logged into my Chase online account. There were some messages and alerts waiting for me. I had 4 green stars along side 4 different already approved offers. 3 for my personal account (Chase Sapphire Reserved-Chase Sapphire Prefferred- and United Airlines Card) the one for the business offer was the Southwest Airline Card.

Immediately I began to do my research to see if the approvals were real or hype.

I came here to see if others had the same offers before and what happened.

I called the Chase credit card department, inquiring of my odds (they didnt nessasarily make me feel that yes-it's a sure thing-instead they seemed puzzled and gave me generic answers).

The next day I drove down to my nearest branch-luckily the banker didnt have any appointments and was able to see me. I told him about the offer that I saw and what did he think-He too, gave me the generic answers of give it a try and not necesarily made me feel that he had seen instances like this before and what the usual outcome has been. But he did say that I had a 95% chance of approval because Chase must to have already screened me.

So I drove back home, took me a glass of Hennessey to knock off my nerves, unfroze my Experian and other 2 accounts, and logged into my account and went for it......

I had already took that shot of bourbon-I was feeling like I was at Harrahs Casino.....I said...let me go hard or stay at home....I went for the Chase Sapphire Reserve.

Once, I clicked that submit button-there was this hourglass and a message saying "Retriving your information". After what seemed like a minute or two...Confetti with Congratulations......You've been approved for $10,000! and that I would receive my card in 3-4 days.

This has been a long time coming! and I've just gotten started...AMEX...I'm coming for you!

🥳Congratulations 🎊 🎉

I enjoyed reading your post because that is how I felt when applying for my 2nd or 3rd but 4th CC revolver. l desired the Reserve and already had 4 time on the books with a 10K limit ...b alas I chucked-out and applied for a a Freedom and received 9.6k SL and was instantly approved.

I became so mentally lost 2 hour later I applied for A Freedom Unlimited just to see what my SL would be to make me feel likenyes- it would have been a sure approval.

What do you know, they blessed me with yet another 9.6K SL. I actually lost it for an hour or two and had to replan my app spree and rewards strategy. It is a long story that bring us to today.

Celebrate! you have your Sapphire Reserve!

You have accomplished your goal.

Hearty congrats on your Chase Sapphire Reserve approval! I was also recently approved for a Chase card (Freedom Flex) that I had been showing a pre-approval for on the Chase Journeys site. I did as you did and searched around here first to see if their offer was legit and the consensus semmed to be that usually yes, they mean it. That prompted my DH to apply for Chase's Amazon Prime Visa, for which he was also approved. Hey, we're on a roll! Congrats again, enjoy your new card.
PS- You are a great story teller!
