Does anyone know the right way to pursue this at Chase and get her approved?
(BTW, after getting her denial, I applied and got approved in about 30 seconds.)
I would call the Chase Reconsideration line 888-245-0625. ask for an explanation and talk it out with them. told my friend to do the same a few days ago (after getting rejected due to college debt that was being paid) and they reconsidered him. worth a shot!
