Chase Tease?

Recently I opened a slate card to balance transfer for the 0% deal. I requested a transfer of $5500 during the app process. I was approved and given a limit of 6k. That has been effecting my credit slightly since it shows that card as almost maxed. Currently my balance is down to 4900.

Yesterday I requested a limit increase through the secure messaging. I asked for an extra 6k just to help. It said we will notify you in 4 hours of the decision. Well 12 hours later I still had not heard anything so I call an analyst. He processes the app for me and says since I have 2 other new accounts he can't approve it. That was earlier this morning.

Well 10 minutes ago I get a notification of a secure message from chase. I go online and it says dear mr $$897. As per your request for a credit limit increase your new credit limit is $18,500 and is immediately available for use.

I was in shock. I log into my account and smack nothing. Limits on my cards are still the same. Plus I only requested a total limit of $12k not $18,500? Are they rubbing my face in the denial? I'm still waiting to hear back from them. Man today sucks lol.

Anyone else ever have this problem?

Re: Chase Tease?

sounds like you got a nice CLI but it hasnt posted online yet. try calling the number on the back of your card and see if it tells you your updated acct info on the automated system

Sounds like you don't have a problem. Congrats.  If it says for immediate use, then you should call the 800 number and listen to what it says the limit is.

Spoke to the underwriters and seems it was an early April fools joke. The are going to investigate the message and let me know about it in 7 days. Oh well back to the credit game.
