Re: Got Approved for AMEX Gold and BCE

If you don't mind me asking OP, but I was wondering how you got the chase freedom? Did you have to recon, when did you apply, etc?

@drewrico

 

I think the reason I got approve is because I have quite a nice banking relationship with Chase (saving+checking > 10K and my employment paycheck is directed deposit through Chase).

 

I applied online and got decision pending message. Called in, answer several identity verifying question and got approved.

Re: Got Approved for AMEX Gold and BCE

CreditSesame reported one hard inquiry on my EX today. So I guess AMEX did triple pull me. However, to date, it is only 1 triple pull. I will report back if the second pull shows up.

Re: Got Approved for AMEX Gold and BCE

Why do people sign up for the BCE instead of the BCP?

Re: Got Approved for AMEX Gold and BCE

Because the main reason I want it is 3x CLI to get me pass $5k CL. I have no intention to use its benefit to the level that it worth getting BCP.

Re: Got Approved for AMEX Gold and BCE

Just got two cards today. So far, only 1 inquiry appears in both EX and TU.
