The general consensus in this thread is to wait though there have been quite a few posts both here and on reddit that indicate waiting it out is not as important as it once was...
What does your pending status state in terms of when you'll receive a decision? If it is 30 days, you should receive a reply today or tomorrow at latest. Give it a couple more days and if you haven't received a "You've been approved" email, call! In the meantime, check your Chase account online if you already have one - you might find the card is already listed in your account. Always call reconsideration on denials - more than once if necessary.
Good luck!
