Thanks for the last response.

Update:

Contacted Recon Line. I used the 2nd no. down in the WIKI (Chase Consolidated thread).

They do not have any app for the CSP. None. I don't have an explanation, either.

While it is true that they don't often approve more than two at a time, they can make adjustments based on certain factors. The rep offered to do that for me. It looks like it was a process of elimination rejection because the other two (Marriott, Freedom) got first dibs. Then, the UA was rejected.

However, it was given a review and I was approved. They transferred the Marriott portion of the CL and I will receive a UA with $7K. That's fine. My opinion on this is that there is a hard marketing push for the UA card right now and that's why I easily got the 2nd look.

The thing the rep could not do was cover the new and better 50K UA miles bonus. But, I can check again when I receive the card.

I then asked if I could apply for the CSP in 30 days. Rep responded that he cannot offer advice on apps but with the time I would have with the three new ones, I would establish a use pattern which would then help to assess the CSP app later on. Of course, that does not take into account the first credit review. I think he meant if I am rejected and then call in for a 2nd review.

I will contact customer service to have that Marriott CL divided up some more, too.

Great customer service. I think I would clone that rep three times and send to AMEX, BOA, and somewhere else, too.
