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 TargetĀ® or WalmartĀ® 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!

There are also Chase Offers. Right now I have the options of 10% back at Lowes, Rite Aid, or Starbucks.

Quote from Knightshade :
Ramsey offers great advice for people who don't understand why their check bounced when they still have checks left in the checkbook.

He gives terrible advice for responsible people to actually build wealth.

We make a lot of profit annually on credit card signup bonuses... thousands to tens of thousands per year depending on the offers and various statues for a given year...on top of the rewards for the routine spend you'd miss if you paid cash like Ramsey wants.

All without ever carrying a penny of debt or paying a penny in interest.


That's all wealth Ramsey would've told us not to bother acquiring because CREDIT CARDS BAD. DEBT AND CREDIT BAD. ALWAYS PAY CASH.


Debt and credit are excellent if used by responsible people who know how math and interest work.

We currently have both a mortgage and a car loan we could've paid off in cash, but it made no sense to do so when we could earn a ton more than the ~2% interest we're paying on that debt by investing the cash elsewhere.


That is certainly not everybody- and for those who that doesn't describe- sure- Ramsey.

You make tens of thousands in credit card offers per year???

Depending on your valuation and usage of points, that is certainly possible. Looking at my own history, I have averaged ~ $7k/year on signup bonuses, not even factoring in 23.5 months of having the Southwest companion pass that I got via leveraging signup offers. And there are people who are far more hardcore than I.

You are mistaken, the 3% dining in restaurants includes takeout and delivery.

So does the 5% cash back on grocery store purchases bump down to 1.5% cash back on grocery purchases, after 12 months or first $12,000 spent criteria ??

Isn't this their perpetual offer? The Case Sapphire Preferred 80K points offer expires I believe on Nov 8.

Yes. If you spend more than $12k, it will revert to 1.5% in less than 12 months. If you spend less than $12k during the 12 months, you won't maximize your 5% offer. You can just buy a grocery store gift card after 11.5 months if you are a grand short of $12k spent or something.

Is the 5% grocery cash back applicable only during the first year or do you get 5% upto $12k every year?
