Just left the branch. Approved for $7,000! 40,000 bonus points after $2,000 spend in 3 months. No 50,000 bonus points unfortunately. But I'm getting $200 to my checking once my direct deposit hits. Overall, not a bad day!

Didn't get to ask about a CLI on my freedom using the same HP. Will call the backdoor number later and ask.

Did they offer the reduced spend just becuase you were in branch or did you have to ask for it?

@whitesol: I didn't have to ask for it. It's automatic when you apply in person at a Chase branch (at least for me). The banker even had a flyer that stated the offer.

Awesome! Congrats!

Congrats on the approval!!

CSP is the card I want next. After a few months in the garden, of course. (<- Before I get in trouble)

Just got off the phone with a CSR. I asked about a CLI using the same HP. After putting me on hold and looking into it, she said that it will be another HP for a CLI on my Freedom card. I'll try calling the app recon backdoor number tomorrow. They're closed for the day.

@Irisa: You'll get there soon. I know it's hard to wait, but it does pay off. I'm glad I waited because I don't think they would've given me a 7k limit if I applied at the same time as my Freedom card. I just paid off a car loan and paid down the majority of my BT on my Discover, so I think that helped a lot with my approval.

That's great, congrats!  I am two payments away from paying off my car loan too. I can hardly wait!
