From the chase website they say:
What do I need to do to complete the online application process?
Before you submit your online application, we'll ask you to provide information about the credit card or existing Chase checking or savings account you want to use to fund your new account. We'll also ask you to print a signature card and return it to us by the mail or fax. Your signature card will include all the details you'll need to complete this final step.
Can anyone confirm this works with a non-chase credit card and it counts as a purchase, not cash advance?
