I applied for the Marriott 80k offer on the morning 12/7 and up to today I still get the 30 day message on the phone. Never had the automated 30 day message this long. Usually it turns into the 2 week with either an approval or decline letter. Could it actually be verification issues? I have 6 chase cards total (4 personal, 2 business) with total limit reaching 61k. I am willing to move credit but that will mean talking to lending which could turn into an ugly denial. I definitely have opened more than 5 cards in the last 2 years. I guess it still the waiting game for me...would have liked to have the card or rejection letter before xmas....
