I applied for the Sapphire Preferred card about 7 days ago and got a rejection letter today. It said "Too many requests for credit or opened accounts with us". I've had 5 hard pulls since Jan. 1st & only have one Chase card currently. So I called the Chase reconsideration line at 888-270-2127 a few minutes ago. The rep asked me the amount of my mortgage payment, put me on hold for 2 minutes, and approved me. My FICO is about 750 & I've had a long history with Chase so I expected them to approve me.
