I mentioned the offer to my wife who is a Chase employee and she pulled it up on her internal system. It had a note that they had additional offers if you apply in a branch. You get the 100k points, 1st year AF waived, and a $50 grocery credit. So essentially an extra $145 for applying in the branch.
Wow. No brainer if you are eligible for the bonus.
I signed up for 80k offer just last week. Can I get chase to make it 100k?

As a datapoint... downgraded my wife's Reserve on Sat 9/4. She just tried to apply via referral link on Fri 9/17 but wasn't instantly approved. We got a Decision Pending.
Any idea what the issue might be? We see the 100k offer when click on Open An Account.

Maybe they don't process applications at 1AM in the morning. If you haven't heard from them by the 19th, call the Reconsideration Line: (888) 270-2127
I see nothing of the sort of "your new account bonus" anywhere on the app. I guess I got F'ed over. Don't go in-branch guys.
If you don't get the 100K bonus points after applying in-branch and having the card approved, you would be the first one to be so unlucky out of the nearly 5000 posted comments here on this discussion thread.
Did you see the second link? You have to wait for your card, activate it, and wait a day before your see anything about your CSP progress on Chase app.
So naive to believe people actually click on your links. If you dont spoon feed and type it out, aint no one reading what you post.

I was in similar situation - not rejected just pending. I called today was told that they need to take credit limits from one of my other chase credit cards. I said sure, and boom! Approved.
Anyone think I'd get approved at 705 credit score, 6 month credit history, 50k income? 2 secured cards open currently at 3000 credit limit total. Would like to avoid inquiry if it's likely I'd get rejected.

I applied in branch yesterday and didn't see it either. Today it showed up 100k for 4k/3mos with an end date.

Just a DP, I haven't received my card yet but the bar showed up in my Chase app the next day after applying in-branch.
Thank you. It seems we actually don't need to activate the card to see the card details on the app but need to wait some time. I have corrected my post.

I don't see anything in the The Points Guy article that flat out discourages RiseAgainst from applying.
While the 705 credit score is below average, it is much higher than the typical low score of 646 quoted in the article. Indeed, there have been SD members with lower scores than RiseAgainst who reported successful applications in this discussion thread.
RiseAgainst's income level and income/available credit limit ratio is good. Really, the only negative thing is his extremely short credit history. Based solely on the article, I'd say the risk-reward of this opportunity (credit rejection vs. 100K bonus) is favorable.
Tazmania99, can you elaborate on your interpretation of The Points Guy article?
1dash1, you got a point, but from my understanding RiseAgainst's concern is a waste of a hard inquiry. I can't say he will be 100% denied for CSP, but his chance of getting approved is apparently below the average.
The Points Guy article did say a DP with a credit score as low as 646 got approved, but the Chase Sapphire Preferred's average required score is 736. This translates to me that anyone with FICO below 736 will have a slimmer chance of getting approved. This is one negative.
Furthermore, CSP is a Visa Signature with minimum credit limit of $5K. RiseAgainst only has two secured credit cards with $3K total credit limit and only 6 months of credit history. This is another negative. While his average credit of cards is less than the minimum credit limit of CSP, and all his cards are secured cards, it will be difficult to get approved since CSP generally requires applicants to have good to excellent credit.
Having a good relationship with Chase definitely will be helpful, such as having a saving or checking account with a meaningful deposit, or any other small business accounts with Chase. Perhaps the person with 646 credit score but got approved is in this scenario. We don't know. But RiseAgainst did not mention anything about his relationship with Chase.
I think RiseAgainst did the right move by opening up two secured credit cards to start building his credit. Secured credit cards are reported to credit bureaus and it will be beneficial to him in a long run if he handles his credit responsibly. While holding the secured credit cards, he should be slowly shifting to unsecured cards, and choose the more beginner friendly credit cards to continue strengthening his credit profile. Discover IT is one good choice. Even other no-fee cards are easier to get approved for beginners than the ones with annual fee which usually require good to excellent credit history; in this case the CSP.
This is just my 2 cents and doesn't mean it must be zero chance for RiseAgainst. As you said in your post, it is all about the risk-rward of a hard inquiry vs. 100K points.
RiseAgainst, hope you don't mind my analysis. Nothing offensive here.

Credit card application usually results in a hard pull of your credit report with which it will lower your credit score by several points. AMEX is an exception as they have soft pulls for certain cards if you are already an existing AMEX customers.
