Not multiple of the same card. 1 Freedom Unlimited and 1 Freedom — yes.



Call the reconsideration line immediately.



Call the reconsideration line immediately.


If you get rejected sometimes there are errors in their automation side or just simply discrepancies. I have always called the reconsideration lines for credit agencies and sometimes even gotten approved over the phone.

At the least it will tell you why you got denied and it will be a learning experience. In this specific case: Always call laugh out loud
That's not how the offer reads:

Earn a $200 bonus after you spend $500 on purchases in the first 3 months from account opening.* And earn 5% cash back on grocery store purchases (not including Target® or Walmart® purchases) on up to $12,000 spent in the first year.*
Yes you are. The Chase Freedom and Freedom Unlimited are different cards. Go and apply for it! If you do, please use someone's referral link (they get $100) to share the wealth!

applied for CFU and got approval with a 500$ CL What??🤷🏻 ♀️
Should I call them and shift credit from existing CSP or CF?
Go for it, there's no reason not to.

This card is absolutely amazing. Had it for one month, just me and my girlfriend, pretty frugal grocery shoppers. Earned $36 in cash back in the first 30 days. This is easily 3-4x what I was getting with my other cards.

For some reason they are super stingy with increasing the CL with this card. Opened it Dec 2016 with a $500 CL and it's still at $500. Meanwhile other newer cards have increased automatically including a regular CF that increased to $4000. Don't mind too much since I'll pay it off immediately but annoying I have so little room.

Didn't they just add more cash back options? I think 5% on travel bought through Chase, 3% on dine-in/delivery/takeout, 3% at drugstores. I've also noticed there are rotating offers in the Chase app. For me, there was 10% on RiteAid, Lowe's, or Starbucks.

Applied and denied. I have good credit, so it'll be interesting to see what they send me in 7-10 days. Will check back after that.

I'm new to these types of deals, is the $200 a statement credit or is it a prepaid card?

You'll get $200 worth of points which is about 20,000 ultimate rewards points, which you can then redeem as a statement credit or other things that equals up to $200 cash back.

This offers really good cashback rewards. It's especially nice now since the Chase Freedom card will be discontinued. Chase is, however, releasing the new Freedom Flex card with slightly different perks
