I have both bold ink and bold plus (both are mastercard) already. Can I apply for bold plus visa as a different product? Does anyone have the link? Thanks.

I'm curious about this also since the Ink Bold is a charge card.

I know with AMEX, charge cards are much easier to get approved for than credit cards.

What do you guys usually say with the Chase recon rep when you have one of the Ink bold/plus card already but want to get the other one? I have the Plus now and want to get the bold with this extra bonus...

Does the Bold card have a higher chance of instant approval than the Plus? Also, what do you guys think of my chances with a credit score of 720, avg age 2 yrs, and a Chase Freedom in Mar 2013. Thanks!

With personal cards I didn't have to give a rationale - just adjust credit lines.

You could always say you buy a lot of broccoli in your business and want to keep the broccoli charges separate.

I was going to downgrade Bold to Classic because of overlap with CSP and saw the mileage bonus and decided to just get the Classic as a new card. I plan to tell the truth if asked.

ink bold is charge card and ink plus is credit card. Say you are responsible with funds and want flexibility of charge card compared to limit of credit card.

I feel bad for those people tomorrow, all the bloggers directing them to call instantly!

When I applied late last year, I was not approved instantly (seemingly nobody is), but was approved within 3-4 days without having to call recon. Don't listen to the bloggers who simply want to line up their commissions a few days sooner, wait a few days and avoid the call! Instant approval isn't everything in this game .

Just checked out the front page of Boarding Area, and there is a grand total of nine peddlers already. If you throw in MMS, it brings it up to an even ten. I'd say the affiliate links already went out.

I'm all for the free market, but ten posts is a little excessive. It'd be like CVS throwing a location up on every corner of an intersection. Wait, that one might not actually be that bad of an idea...

Thanks for the tip. I was instantly approved on-line. Then called and spoke with a CSR supervisor who said Chase has a policy of not rushing the original card...but I could (and did) request a secondary card that will arrive in 2 business days. Odd, but I'll take it...

it could be worst. i.e. someone posting deal on fw or sd. on sd alone, it's front page with 200+ replies. i feel bad for the chase employees coming in on monday.

FWIW, only MMS published his blog post before his affiliate links went live. All others (ie: BoardingArea bloggers) waited until after their affiliate links were live.

I actually like to know as soon as I can. Also, sometimes it is easier to get a rep to approve an app that has not yet decided, rather than asking them to reverse a denial.

I will say I like Rapid Travel Chai's approach: "Yes, I have Chase Ink Offer Too."
