I applied for the CSP on 22Nov and did not get automatically approved. I got a little sad because I had hoped on using it for black Friday so that I can get those 50k bonus points. I called the automated number and they told me that I would hear from them in 2 weeks.
My husband and I combined make over 6 figures, haven't applied for a credit card since 2013, just got a mortgage in September, and bought a new car 2 weeks ago. I was wondering if it was the mortgage inquiry and the new car loan that maybe caused me to have to wait for an approval.
I got a voicemail from them last night, 29Nov, from Chase's fraud prevention service saying that I needed to call them back to verify some of my information. I had to verify my cellphone, address, and a few other questions from the application-- then the lady said I was approved with a starting limit of 16k! How awesome!
She said it would take 2-3 weeks for the card to come in the mail, but I asked if there was a way to expedite it and she said she was able to via UPS and that I'd get it within 2-3 days!
I'm excited! I've heard a lot of really good things about this card!
