I read this thread as Well as the ba one maybe my situation is different because even after getting a recommendation from recon they didn't confirm my approval she only said that she moved the application ahead to the final stage.therefore my question is do I have to wait until I confirm approval on my ba card or can I call about the ump card right away while ba is still pending.my concern is that maybe if it is still pending if I open another application recon they might still squash my ba card because of the double app.since dan reported successes on all 3 cards I thought he might be able to tell me if he called for the second and third while the first was still pending.
I hope this clears things up for you so that you don't have to post more of dans quotes

It seems he called for all three one at a time. FWIU, with the new policy, once Chase (lending/credit) approves you, they pass your info on to the co-branding company (e.g. United, Hyatt, BA, etc) to see if you're a first time account etc. I think that's what it means.

You can wait to hear from Dan, but that's my understanding.

oops!
I called with my reference number for the ba and tthe rep said it's been cancelled because they are processing the ba :( I guess i should've waited until it went through completely to call.but all is not lost the rep did say i can call back after a decision is handed down on the ba,he said I'll have to cancel my ba but I'll try and convince them to cancel my co since the rep said that eventually all cards will be turned over to co

Sorry I meant that when I called about the united card even though I used a reference number they still said that it was cancelled because of the ba app

So after your experience with chase; would your suggestion be to call app status, get a reference number, call reco and push through one card, wait for approval and then push through the next?

Also, I am having a hard time getting through to the Philippians, I keep getting someone in the States and I am scared to ask them about my status as I don't want them to be alerted that I have two pending apps. How did you do it?

Calling during off peak hours will probably make better odds for getting a phillipino

I would say wait for the first to be approved before calling about the next.also I don't think it matters if you get an american I'm not sure that this department would note the account as a double app

Great! Thanks everybody for your input I'm going to call right now.

Update: I just called ( the rep was definitely not american) I was approved for the UA 30K (hopefully ill get 50K) and the BA is still pending.

Should I call reco while the BA is still pending or should I wait for them to deny (or hopefully approve) and then call?

So here's the scoop:
I've worked in caller centers b4 and typically they outsource these place at the latest hours, usually somewhere between 11pm and 2am EST.
I just called, put my social in and pressed 0 to be transferred to a specialist who proclaimed both my apps were declined. He said he could not see any reason why. I pressed for the reference numbers and he claimed that only the applicant can see this info when applying. Said he had no access to that. I asked him if he was in the States, answer was India. He said that a secondary review can be done to verify the accuracy of my credit report and that would require me to check what is shown and use that for further review. Nothing is wrong with my credit, but if I get a new report to them they will suddenly notice how 7 inquiries have suddenly vanished since the pull. This will look really strange and I won't know how to go about explaining that (for those of you in the know). So he said he was immediatel able to see both my apps because I entered my social in. I hope they reconsider me for both cards. I've spent over 16k with them in the last 2 years with overseas hotel charges, and prepayed the balance each month, sometimes forcing a negative balance. Fico is 774 and average history age is 3.4 years with various cards and medium high lines. The only thing I can see is it was an autodenial because 2 inqs were in the last 45 days, or because of dup-apps. They must not want my money anymore, particularly when they target my email for the 50k CO several times the last 3 months. That's fine, plenty of other tasty fish in this sea that want my bait.

I stated earlier that did three browser trick with Amex in NJ and got 2 pulls on Experian.......I see they did the same with my wifes Apps and pulled 2 times 3 days apart eventhough applied within the same 5 seconds.

Granted one was a business SPG card and other 2 personal so don't know if all were personal if that would be different.

My guess is he's referring to bumpage, do a Google search and you'll find it. Doesn't work on Experian.

That's correct, but supposedly taboo to talk about since those types of thread are watched by the agencies. So being denied now means no point of calling in until I get the denial reason right? There are maybe 3 inqs I can probably say were erronious that were the last 6 months (at least 1 actually was, and I got a valid reason to tell them why removed). Other than that, if too many inqs is my reason then what will I say to them about their own CO inq disappearing in Feb 2010? and Captial One that disappeard in March 2011 (given that account still doesn't show up as a tradeline by then)? If that Capital One account does not show up on my file as a tradeline by then would it be good to say that it was denied? I planned this for about 5 months but really expected to get approved. Thinking doing the double browser was a bad move, or should have waited to kill the inqs after all this was done. As of right now the only inq is from Chase on 5/5. They would have seen 8 others. But 3 were due to fall off this week anyhow. Stuck in a self-made credit quandry.

I'm not sure when is best to call, but with Chase you can get at least one card approved upon reconsideration. Be willing to close other accounts and/or transfer credit lines, but don't play that card (no pun intended) unless you have to.
