If my application isn't approved instantly, should I call in?

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

Can you have two of the same kind of Freedom card? Not just one Freedom and one Freedom Unlimited but two (base) Freedom cards? Ditto with the brands within the INK family? Issued to the same named business, not just the same named cardholder?

Worthless only if United goes bankrupt soon. I assume the chances of that are very low, but I don't know for sure. I applied anyway, but wasn't approver instantly. I guess they are worried now about businesses being able to pay. Will see what happens next.

Chase United Business Card $100 Credit
Couldn't find a data point on this. I know with Amex, the flight credits work again with United's Travel Bank charges.
I'm not sure, however, if I charge Travel Bank 7 x $100 if I then get the $100 Chase credit. Anyone know? If not, I'll give it a try.

Here is some context for the question:
Each anniversary year that you make seven (7) United flight travel-related purchases, each totaling $100 or more, with your UnitedSM Business Card, you will receive a $100 statement credit. United flight travel-related purchases include seat upgrades; Economy Plus®; inflight food, beverages and Wi-Fi; baggage service charges or other United fees. Anniversary year means the year beginning with your card account open date through the anniversary of the account open date, and each 12 months after that. The statement credit will post to your account within 24 hours of your 7th United $100 or more purchase posting to your account. To qualify, account must be open and not in default at the time of fulfillment.

United Business Mileage Plus
Didn't find much from a search of this specific card (note: this is the BUSINESS card).
It's ironic I'm considering a United card since I never fly United and really have no plans to do much in the future. Alaska serves my routes best and I plan to stick with that. I am a Chase fan and the United Business Mileage Plus (I'll call it UBMP) really fills some nice categories. I'm mainly wondering if I'm crazy for getting an airline card from an airline I don't fly?
Reasons:
My two largest spend bonus categories are gas for company vehicles and dining/restaurants. UBMP offers 2X on those categories and I can't find a Chase card that's the same.
I run between 125K-150K through the card for my small business annually which works out to some decent rewards
150K introductory offer is pretty nice - especially with the Chase 125% offers (or even 150% - see below)
I hold a Chase Sapphire Reserve for personal use and can move points from other Chase cards and get 150% redemption on travel bookings through Chase/Expedia (for now) portal or Pay-Yourself-Back
Questions:
Are the rewards (150K intro, dining/gas categories, etc.) Chase Ultimate Rewards?
Would I access this card within Chase's website with all my other accounts? (all my business and personal is there and it's REALLY nice to have it all in one place)
Would I be able to use the two United lounge passes even if not flying United on a given day?
I realize if I don't fly United much (or at all) there would be a few things with this card that I'd be leaving on the table but I think I more than make up for that with the bonus categories and HUGE sign-up offer.
It's been 4+ years since I received any introductory offers on any cards
My credit score is well over 800 and my small business is healthy and does about 750K per year with no debt or problems.
Thanks for any input!!
