Need a little HELP
so i was approved for Hyatt card last month and i was declined for the BA card.
I called the 1-888- and my options are to closed out the Hyatt card then they can open the BA card. The problem is that i wonder if they will take away the 2 free nights that come with the Hyatt card.
Also i was told another time i called it that i can pay down some of the balances i have ran up ( due to CITI AA card with 4000 spending requirement). Which i have already paid off, just waiting for it to update with the credit reporting companies. And they will pull a credit report again and re evaluate the application again.
I am not really sure if they can take away the Hyatt 2 nights. Also i could just wait till my report updates and try again at that time if i am denied i would tell them to close the Hyatt. 2 nights or 100k miles decision decision.

Yep, or wait for the "Welcome to BA" email...
Mine hasn't popped up yet. I have 4 Chase cards with a CL of 35K, wie has 3 with a limit of 18K so there's plenty of room to move the limits around. I just paid off 2 new cars 6 months ago so I know there's 50K of headroom in my limit (although vehicles are partially secured so it's really less than that).
Only one Citi AA card?

My wife got approved for the non-signature card. Is this still valid for the 100,000 miles? Customer service rep didn't know but did note the account.
Any help from previous users appreciated.

I was in the same situation, and CS couldn't help. I sent a message via secure online messaging (found within your chase.com account), and the rep got back to me, in writing, confirming the details of the offer. Now even if there is a problem, I have it in writing that I should get it. I suggest following up the same way to cover yourself just in case.

When I activated my card I also verified the 100,000 miles. Today, one week later, Chase sent me a notice I won't be getting any miles since I've had a mileage card in the past with them (this was two years ago). Not too happy right now. I know what their offer says, but here I am spending money on their card for a week after verifying the terms and now they send this to me?

But you can disolve your household account at anytime.

I'm unclear on this - does that just mean that you can't *join* miles from multiple members of a household to get someone outside the household a ticket? Or does it mean that if you have a household account you can't get anyone outside a ticket period, even if the miles come entirely from one person's individual account? I thought the former was the case...

It has been over a week I have received no email and no card, I applied last weekend. How long did it take for you guys to get it? I had instant approval should I call?

I applied April 15, got instant approval, but heard nothing else. I've called and all they say is it's pending. They say there is absolutely no way to speed it up???? You can call to check your status. My wife applied Apr 14 and got instant approval and yet to receive her card. They said it's in the mail.

I got my card last week and if I get a follow-up letter indicating I won't be getting those 100K BA Miles I'm gonna fight it pretty hard. They had all the information they needed to make this decision "before" they approved the card. They could have indicated it at that time. Fight it!

Yes, but you can still fight it. T&C's say other things that have been waived by the proper, polite, logical approach to CSR's, this one could too.
