The banker might see something that's even better than what you see online. In my case, the banker saw an offer that doubled the online sign-up bonus for the FU card.

Thanks for the quick responses.  I logged back into my Chase account to check for a specific APR, whether it asked for income and mortgage info, etc.  I saw, to my dismay, it was not an actual offer for a CSP for ME, but like AJC, bonus points for referring friends to a card I, myself, do not have.  Excitement short-lived.  Whomp whomp.  Smiley Sad


I've got that same offer on my account.  Makes me jump every time I see it.  Jerks.

Re: Chase...this has to be wrong, right?

So chase has two offers that I'm interested in. If I app, is that 2x HP or just a single?

It's completely a YMMV situation.  Best case scenario, you end up with a single HP on one credit bureau.  Worst case scenario, you end up with a pair of HPs on two different credit bureaus.  Some people have reported success getting a single pull on one bureau, but they do often pull 2 reports for an app and that could be doubled if applying for two products.  So the best I can say is that you'd get 1-4 HPs for two apps.

First time I apped with Chase I got two cards for the one pull. They did EQ and EX though so it was 2 for 2.

Every time I open chase I click/tap on "offers" and every time all I get is the sound of a trumpet in my head playing "wah wah waaaaahhhhhh". Perfectly happy with the CSP they gave me but can't help feeling that will be my once in a lifetime bone tossed to me by chase, my entire credit having life I've never gotten anything else from them but no. One day I hope to get the CL up to 10k so I can pc to reserve...but we all have foolish dreams right? Smiley Happy

So I I applied and was approved for the CSP with a good SL. The downside is that my TU is showing 2x HP for this request. I'm hoping it's a mistake but I was surprised.

Re: Chase...this has to be wrong, right?

Chase double pulled me for my CSP last month, TU & I think EX. What was your SL? I got $5k and have read that chase will double pull when an app is considered borderline and they want a wider angle of your profile but I'm not positive that's fact or only speculation though with my history and limit I'm inclined to believe it.
