The thread (and wiki) you should be reading instead of this one is Applying for Chase Credit Cards- May 2015-Present. Do yourself a favor and go there now.

Most of my Chase apps over the last year or so have taken around 3 weeks to get processed if left alone. All were approved.
If you want to push things along call the "reconsideration" number. They should hopefully get an answer there and then.

I'll give it another week.
I would have. It seems that you live in Arizona; it is a "community property" state. See post #1229 here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/miles...l#post18523500

Chase/ BA Avios 100k Promotion - Was I approved?
Hey all. First post here. I've been lurking for awhile but now finally have a question. So I just started getting into all of this in the last month or so. So here's my question.
I know there's a common conception that Chase has a 6 month policy when it comes to getting cards from them. A couple months back I signed up for the Chase Priority Club Visa with the 80k signup bonus. Shortly after that I learned about the 100k Avios points offer and just figured I'd wait 6 months, cancel my couple year old (no rewards) chase card and sign up for the Avios offer. Then I saw that the Avios offer was going to be canned on the 7th. So I did some more reading and found that apparently their 6 month rule is a bit of a misconception. So I bit the bullet and apped just so I wouldn't miss the offer (then of course it was extended).
So of course I got the "we need to review your application" message and was told to stay tuned and that I'd either get a denial letter or a card. Fast forward to this morning, I get an email from British Airlines thanking me for joining the Avios program. I assume this means that the card was approved and they auto-enrolled me Avios? Is that assessment correct?
And that's my first question!

Most likely you were approved. Just give Chase a ring and ask. It'll put your mind at ease.
Good luck!

I have to add my credit cards to my account manually... Maybe it's because I'm a banking customer too.

I also had to add my card manually in the past - when that happened, I was told it was because for whatever reason, the "profile" of the owner of the new card did not match with the "profile" of the existing accounts. Sometimes it can be name with initial or without initial. Sometimes it can be there is a slightly different way your address appears in Chase system!

No. My cards automatically show up when they are approved and I have a Chase banking account.

Welcome to Flyertalk!
You're likely approved. That has been my experience. I believe the T&C states that an Avios account will be open only if you had been approved.
Chase also has a application status checking line. I don't have the number with me, but I'll bet you can easily find it if you search for it here.

Thanks for the info. I called them and they say the app just shows that it's still pending. One agent said they'll open up an Avios account for me either way but that doesn't make any sense. So officially, I'm still up in the air (no pun intended).
I almost wonder if the app is approved and just hasn't posted in the system yet. I tried to see if canning my 4 year old, no benefit chase card would help/ hurt me but the status check phone number just redirects you to generic customer service now.
I want my 100k points!

Also, I'm not sure where you read about a 6 month rule, but in my experience, I've been getting Chase cards every 3 months or so. This is common for a lot of people who do App-O-Ramas. Usually 3 months is enough time in between Chase apps.

Getting a welcome email from British Airways doesn't necessarily mean you'll get approved for the cc. It just meant you got enrolled into BA Avios reward program when you applied for the cc.
Last year when I applied for Chase Continental card, I also got a welcome email from Continental. But about 10-14 days later i got a denied letter from Chase for the cc.
But Chase is very friendly if you call to re-allocate credit from your old card to the new card, or if you don't want your old non-reward card, simply ask to move the credit from the old card to the new card, then cancel your old non-reward card.

Help: Chase Sapphire in review
Folks,
I applied for Chase Sapphire Preferred for my wife and it was put under review. She has score of 770, she doesn't own many CC and the last time she applied for a card was in Dec 11. I put in the credit application Job: as searching and Month: one. Could that have affected her application.
Thanks

If you want to talk to Chase about it, I'd recommend calling them. They are really nice on the phone and someone will always pick up without having to go through telephone prompts. They may be able to tell you more, but since she just applied, they also might tell you that they don't have a decision yet. Can't hurt to call and see what they say though.
Phone number is: 1-888-245-0625
Good luck.
