Chase Sapphire Reserve BENEFITS master thread

5/24 applies to this card
Minimum $10K of CL is needed, so if you can't get 10K on an instant, there's another great reason to get declined

There are multiple instances reported on this very thread of someone who was way over 5/24 and did not have PC and who got approval after recon.


The information below no longer applies for 2016/2017 but should still be useful for 2017/2018

Can you still get a 2016 travel credit if you apply now for a Sapphire Reserve card?

People have been reporting various due dates in January. If you get a due date between the 6th to the 25th then your bill will close between December 9th-28th and you will have time to spend the $300 in 2016 travel credit.

It is definitely still possible to get those due dates, but there’s no guarantee. If you do apply then be sure to call reconsideration to see if you can get approved today.
You may also be able to change your payment due date to generate a December statement if your due date is earlier than January 6 or later than January 25th. Just call to have you due date changed to January 25th to have your statement close on December 28th.

From here. Hopefully this will stop the constant questions.

If you don't want to recon immediately, you can wait a little after the first app, see if the automatic system approves you, before applying for a second.
thank you for repeating what I said

so after putting me on hold she offered me to close this "sapphire" and use the CL to approve the new SR, should I do it?
only issue is it's an oldish card, so i want to keep it open...

Ask to move over part of the old CL.

The problem the rep is saying is that he has a sapphire product already, correct?

she still seems to see it as a sapphire, even though it shows up online as a freedom (i even activated 5% for q1 2018 on it), she countered that it was in the past a sapphire so that disqualifies it (don't tell anyone but my other freedom and freedom unltd are also downgrades from sapphire  ;D )

Why don't PUTPACA and see if that gets you anywhere.

She's wrong, if you can't get her to budge, HUCA.

It takes a few days for them to see it as a different card. Call back later.

my question is, is it worth HUCA to see if I can keep the old account open for my credit history, or should i just take the offer she is offering now?

He said he sees the freedom icon when he logs in, so it's weird that on her end she see different.

Don't take the offer, because with a new rep you'll at least get that

think it's too late for that, they already pulled... although she hasn't read me the whole disclosure about cancelling the old card yet... (and i just realized i have 2k pending points from shop thru chase...too bad)

Recon pulled 2 apps? There is so much wrong with that.

I just got the reserve card. Is there any point on making the cards statement close before the year is up or is there no point to that anymore? tia
