If my application isn't approved instantly, should I call in?
How can I determine the deadline for meeting the spend requirement to earn the signup bonus?
After being denied, how long should I wait before applying again for the same card?
How long should I wait after closing my card before applying again for the same card?See the wiki at Applying for Chase Credit cards.
Can I have MileagePlus Explorer Business Card if I already have a MileagePlus Explorer personal card?Yes. They are different products.
If I earned a 50k bonus within last 24 months on a MP Explorer Business card with one EIN, would I be able to apply for and receive a new bonus with a new MP Explorer Business card with a different business EIN?No. Even if your businesses have separate EINs, you must wait the 24 months.
Once I meet the spending requirement, how soon will I receive my bonus points?Bonus points typically accrue at the close of the billing period in which you incur the corresponding charges. Points should appear in your United account within a day or two thereafter.
NOTE: If you complete your required spending within 7-10 days of your statement close, the bonus may not post until the following month's statement, even if the regular per-dollar points post on the first statement. This is normal behavior for Chase and is not worth a phone call.
Where can I find details on the travel & purchase-protection benefits for this card?Here: https://www.chasebenefits.com/unitedVW4

- Purchasing 7 x $100 TravelBank triggers the $100 travel credit.

My concern is that when I received my Ink Plus package there was no reference to the 50k mileage offer. I hope I still qualified. Is it based on when you applied or when you were approved? I just hope that the reconsideration line did not "reapply" for the card for me thus rendering my original bonus mileage offer unapplicable. Or does the package they ship with the card not show the bonus offer in the letter?

Same happened to me, but call the reconsideration line and move some credit around. It's about the ratio of exposure to income.

Chase definitely doesn't like seeing a lot of recent credit inquiries. I got this UA bix card last week, but they didn't give me more credit -- just reallocated from the 2 other Chase cards I have -- and said something about a lot of recent inquiries.

they clarified that they want to primarily see more biz revenue on the books. the number of inquiries seemed more like a secondary black eye for me.

Applied 7/15 from 50K page, pending message at the end of the app, called recon, denied for 'sufficient credit with Chase' and too many accounts opened recently.
Asked for recon through SM, specifically asked them to move credit around so I could keep all my spending with Chase, denied for the same reasons after 'a second thorough consideration'.

I think the reference was to jsmithv's post #76. However, you should try the method outlined in the OP first.

After 11 days and 3 PMs, was finally approved. They had to reduce the credit limit on another card to accomodate. Since this is my 5th Chase card I consider myself lucky. Now need to cool my jets for awhile.

I've applied for and been accepted for many personal Chase cards lately, but only have the one business card. How will that affect my chances of approval? After all, this is a business card.

The business hardly matters, unless it's lost money. It's all really based on you, since you're the one on the hook.
Got it today with chrome incognito - reconsideration call 1 hr after app sent - approval with credit line shuffle from my personal explorer card.

Unable to get it to work in any browser using incognito, cleared cookies, etc. Perhaps because I already own the personal version of this card? Only getting the 30K offer.
