Where do you see the value of Chase FU if you have the Discover IT

[csryang]

Have you checked for pre-approved offer? Sometimes it wont show until it's after 6 months from your last Chase app. 

Sometimes new account with Chase will help - like if you only have checking account with them but open a saving account will help - this is from my personal DP. I had like more than 10 accounts in 2 years and pre-approved for CSR as my 7th or 8th chase card 1 month after opening saving account and 6 months after last opened Chase card.

You could certainly close your FU and move credit to Amazon card. However, most people like to keep Chase main branded cards - CSR, CSP, FU, freedom. 

I would still recommend you product change FU to freedom as it's also no annual fee. In case if you get CSP or CSR later, freedom will help greatly. 

In addition, you can find Amazon gift cards like everywhere... You can always use chase freedom to buy Amazon gift card later loaded to Amazon at at least 5% cash back earned from freedom on some months. Very useful and valuable card! It's eventually up to you though. IMO, really no harm or urgency to close a no annual fee card!

Yes, you can. You must have a min. of $500 limit on the card before clsoing it though.

Thank You for the input..

Wil SD the card for now.. Will also ask my Chase Branch rep.. I really don't mind if I can get a CSP just to keep the card.

Downgrade PC to the regular Freedom is another option to take advantage of the revolving 5% CB.

So I can't move all and ask them to close it?

Like right now I have 2K SL on the card. Can I just simply request to reallocate the whole 2K SL to my amazon and close the FU?

  I wouldn't yet.  Those small limits are easier to max usage on, triggering auto CLI's (and I am waiting for 5/24 to get that card, lol)

I don't think having a 500 is always required. This is from my personal DP:

generally its true. However with chase, you may move the entire limit to another card if you have no activity at all for the previous one month/one statement on that card.

one of my chase cards was closed at zero CL rather than 500.

anyway I still recommend not closing it though and SD it at this time

I just came back from Chase Bank and spoke to one of the Rep and unfortunately no prequal offers available for me.

Oh well, as planned.. I will SD it for now and see what happens in the next 6 months.

With Chase though.. Almost everything is a freakin HP.. Kind of annoying.. Well the prequal check was SP.

Not trying to hijack but has anyone lowered a chase limit to 500 and it got auto increased later on? That would be a cool inchworm method to dodge INQ.

I'm gonna try to move $1500 from FU to my Chase Amazon Prime Visa.

Really can't see any future usage for this card. Since getting the Discover IT.
