Chase Freedom 10*10 Exclusives

[MEIR613]

I'm opening a checking account online to link with my freedom card.
Am I better off opening it with a Debit card deposit or transferring funds direct from the account that's linked to the freedom card for payment?

No difference

I tried getting in on this for my wife. Did a double dip Freedom MC SP Visa.
Got instant on the SP pending on the Freedom 

[Dan]

Recon, ASAP.

+1 got any old Chase cards to offer as a korban?

Or just part of the new SP line.

That will take a few days, won't it?
Does he need to apply by 11th or be approved by then?

[Dan]

Why?

[mmermss]

If I apply for the freedom today will I still be grandfathered in?  I have a checking account for a few months already

[txtmax4]

Why?

From when he gets approved AFAIK the CL is not instantly available, it takes some time to process CMIIW.
But if they'll honor 10/10 as long as he applied before the 11th, even if it's not yet approved than no biggie.

[Dan]

I'd assume you need approval by the 10th.

Will try to recon tomorrow. Worst case I offer to switch the SP for the freedom
And fwiw this page seems to be dead

Not to pour salt on the wounds or anything but maybe these two should have been applied for separately, the Freedom being first?
Same day one pull anyways.
Knowing how easy Chase recon is it's no biggie to forego instant approvals...

for the record i did submit the freedom first.
Ironic though that the "basic" card is pending while the premium one was instant. Probably because the freedom had a Apr offer attached to it

Or maybe cause of the SP annual fee and spend requirement.
Same reason why Amex plat is the one that get instant most of the times.

I just did a 3bm Freedom SP UA call reconsideration on all 3. All approved and they told me my CL for all 3. I didn't even ask.
