I mean no go it will be "very very" hard to push it through recon, but if 2 weeks, recon might help
-2, more like very very not that hard to push through the best recon service in the industry.

Just my experience with various cards and a few ppl. When they said 7-10 (for decision, not "7-10 to receive card in mail) I never had success for approval, and they told me its "automatically" denied by the system, but when they said 2 weeks for decision I got easy approvals or after calling recon a few times. If experience matter.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Like I said IME when it said 7-10 and I called they were already declined.

Wasn't saying you're wrong, just explaining why it varies.

You must have very little experience with Chase recon, maybe you need to step up your game...

It wasn't meant offensively, there are a lot of tips in that thread, and many (most?) people here who get the 7-10 day message call recon and are ultimately approved.

+1, i had fun convincing recon to reconsider my application, and they pressed the "submit" button a few times only for it to go into "pending" and be declined by the system, but i after 3 times the system declining my Continental card, i waited 3 more days tried again, and the system magically approved. this is after getting the, "we will email you our decision in 7-10 days"
ani ma'amin bemunah shelaimah, b'chase recon! all the way!! i had 1 charge card and got my first 2 credit cards CO OPP(2k) and SP(5k) i will owe chase for this valuable credit boost.

I wasn't approved for the other two. Time to make a phonecall... It's odd because their reasoning was "Too many requests for credit or opened accounts with us." I applied for 3 chase credit cards as per Dan's suggestion. Odd... And I don't have any other Chase accounts.
