Just Applied for CSP!

Okay so was trying not to apply for anything after my recent Discover IT approval in early January, but couldn't resist it and applied for the Chase Sapphire Preferred after contemplating whether or not to save $400 on the international tickets I'll be buying in a couple of days.

Well (even though had a pretty good feeling I would be approved), I was instantly approved (was quite quick if I may say, about 13.2 seconds) Smiley Happy

Re: Just Applied for CSP!

Thanks guys! Also worth it to mention, CSP is my first five digit CL, was approved for $10,000 starting CL. Smiley Happy

Love you Chase! Especially since I just got my first Chase card, the Freedom, in December 2012.

Re: Just Applied for CSP!

Just called the customer support for CSP (human answered my call in less than a minute, no automated system). She welcomed me to the Chase Sapphire Preferred family and I asked if she could expedite the card since I'm going to be buying tickets on it in a couple of days and she said of course and sent it out rush delivery! Stated should be here in 2-3 business days. Can't wait!

Re: Just Applied for CSP!

you better be saving a lot more than $400-500 on international tickets with that card Smiley Tongue

 

that's only 1 cent a point, UR points are worth much  more than that! remember to transfer the points to United for the best bang for the buck. I get 4.3 cents worth this way. Study how to spend your points before you use them. There's many ways.

Re: Just Applied for CSP!

Going to be spending $8,000 in tickets for my family.

I thought I would get 2% cash back if I used my CSP and booked through an agent?

Also my brother in law has the CSP and we looked at the Ultimate Rewards mall for booking through that site via his CSP account, and there's a difference of $230 per ticket. The agent I'm going through I always buy tickets through so he gives me a very good discount. Smiley Happy
