Chase Private Client

Qualification:

At least $150,000 with Chase Bank in personal and business bank accounts. Also include investments with JP Morgan. Excludes all employer sponsored retirement plans (401K etc.) and other benefits plans such as HSA etc. but includes IRAs managed by Chase. The investments can be managed by JP Morgan (fee based) or self-directed by the clients.

There is no Monthly Service Fee for Chase Private Client Checking when you have one of the following each monthly statement period: an average beginning day balance of $150,000 or more in any combination of this account and linked qualifying deposits and investments or you have a linked Chase Platinum Business Checking account (with $50,000 balance). Otherwise a $35 Monthly Service Fee will apply.

Benefits:
  • No monthly service fee on Chase Private Client checking or savings accounts.
  • A reduced minimum balance requirement on Chase Platinum Business Checking and no monthly fee on Chase Total Business Checking accounts
  • No fees for domestic and international wire transfers completed in person, on the phone or online.
  • No Chase fee at a non-Chase ATM (including international ATMs). In addition, Chase refunds ATM fees charged by the ATM owners up to five times per statement period.
  • No fee for 3 x 5 Safe Deposit Box and a 20% discount for larger boxes (though Chase exited safe deposit business in California)
  • No stop payment fees.
  • No fees for cashiers checks, counter checks or money orders.
  • When using your debit card, Chase will increase your daily ATM withdrawal limit of up to $2,000 and a daily purchase limit of up to $7,500.
  • No exchange rate adjustment fees for debit card usage or ATM withdrawals abroad, making this another great way to save on overseas ATM withdrawals
  • A slightly higher sign-up bonus on the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card. Chase Private Client customers can earn 60,000 bonus points after spending $4,000 on their card within three months of account opening, versus 50,000 points for the public offer. (Possibly outdated)
  • Mortgage benefits including the ability to leverage Chases best rate when you purchase a home with the Chase Private Client Mortgage Rate Purchase Program (based on your total deposits and investments with Chase), a $750 discount on closing costs on all loans, dedicated priority processing and senior underwriting support for loans, discounts for Home Equity Lines of Credit and direct access to Customer Service Specialists. Note: Chase discontinued new HELOCs in 2020 (existing HELOC accounts are grandfathered with these benefits).
  • Access to the Chase Private Client Arts & Culture program, which includes a card that offers free admission and discounts to museums in about a dozen major US cities. For example, in New York it offers free admission to the American Museum of Natural History for yourself and up to five guests. The card is specific to an individual city, but it appears that Chase is willing to send you new cards when you plan on visiting a particular city.Discontinued.
  • A private client advisor when you have investments with JP Morgan

Chase Sapphire Banking Relationship

Qualification:


At least $75,000 with Chase Bank in personal and business bank accounts. Also include investments with JP Morgan. Excludes all employer sponsored retirement plans (401K etc.) and other benefits plans such as HSA etc. The investments can be managed by JP Morgan (fee based) or self-directed by the clients.

Benefits:
  • No monthly service fee on Chase Sapphire checking or savings accounts.
  • One no fee Chase Total Business Checking account (may have been removed)
  • No fees for domestic and international wire transfers completed in person, on the phone or online.
  • No Chase fee at a non-Chase ATM (including international ATMs). In addition, Chase refunds ATM fees charged by the ATM owners up to five times per statement period.
  • No fee for 3 x 5 Safe Deposit Box and a 20% discount for larger boxes.
  • No stop payment fees.
  • No fees on the first four overdrafts during the current the prior 12 statement periods
  • No fees for cashiers checks, counter checks or money orders.
  • When using your debit card, Chase will increase your daily ATM withdrawal limits.
  • No exchange rate adjustment fees for debit card usage or ATM withdrawals abroad, making this another great way to save on overseas ATM withdrawals
  • 24/4 dedicated Chase Sapphire banking service line
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The benefits of Chase Private Client and Chase Sapphire Banking are almost identical. The main difference is that CPC has a dedicated private banker vs Sapphire dedicated service line. CPC is for clients who have more sophisticated banking and investment needs and desire a more personal relationship. CPC may have other banking discounts with mortgage, vehicle loans etc.

Before CPC was a way to get around the Chase 5/24 credit application limitation. It was also the backdoor to apply for the JPM Reserve (former Palladium) card. Both have been blocked or eliminated.

Chase Private Client

Hey everyone,
Recently moved enough assets to Chase to qualify to Private Client. Have the Chase Trio credit cards. Curious what everyone thoughts were on CPC and what some overlooked benefits may be

CPC benefits are pretty much what has been described by Chase. But I believe the hidden benefit is the access of some non-publicly available investment products.

FWIW, the main tangible benefit I've been able to use is free wire transfers. My daily ACH limit is only 100k which often leaves me needing to initiate a wire transfer. I also use the higher daily ATM withdrawal limit from time to time.

You will get a "banker" who will call you every now and then to ask if you need anything.

Once I got a call notifying me of a CD APY promo that I was interested in. So I stopped by my nearest Chase branch only to wait 15 minutes to be told that since I am Private Client they could not open the account and I had to schedule a meeting at a Private Client branch ...Kind of a hassle for a 1.75% APY.

Note than many private client branches no longer have teller services (although the one's I've been to do have the enhanced ATMs that let you even choose bill denomination and allow your max daily limit of withdrawal as opposed to the ATM's limits)

My bottom line on CPC is it is 95% marketing and 5% free wires and higher cash limits.

In my experience the only benefit to being CPC eligible, I didn't take them up on it, and they hounded me incessantly until I emailed the guy back told him to f off. You do get a cooler looking debit card. Beyond that I don't think there are any tangible benefits.

I have a Sapphire Checking and YouInvest account with qualifying balances which waives basically every fee you can throw at the bank account. CPC just gives you some dedicated idiot that will annoy you.

I got invited in to talk about CPC only to be told I didn't qualify.... wasn't really sure why they wasted my time as they have access to my personal and business accounts and could clearly see how much money I was holding and running through. Fwiw, my business runs roughly 1M though them per year and I regularly have balances over 100K in my checking for months so I wasn't really sure what they were looking for? I'm glad to hear that I'm really not missing out on much. I was thinking maybe there was some access to the Chase martini lounge or something. Higher ATM limits is about the only complaint I might have but it's really not that big of a deal.

I am surprised Chase doesn't leverage its line of popular CC into banking/brokerage relationships similar to what BofA does.

According to google, you need a daily average of $250,000 balance in your accounts to qualify. Honestly it is much easier to be Plat Honor client at BoA and much better benefits (bonus) for their credit cards!

Did they ask if you had money at other institutions that you could move to Chase?

BTW, I kept getting emails from Chase saying that I could get $2000 becoming a Chase Private Client. I have no checking/saving/investment accounts with Chase except for credit cards. It said I just need to schedule a phone meeting, transfer $250k to a Chase account and maintain for 90 days, get $2000 bonus. Maybe they just sent those emails out to everyone with Chase credit cards and not even looking at your Chase's bank account at all.

I can't remember if they did or not. I don't have 250K liquid cash sitting around (who does?) but my home equity, IRA and value of my company easily exceeds it. I was kind of just annoyed by the whole thing and tuned the guy out pretty quickly.

We like the free cashier's checks and wires, the CPC debit card and (until recently) the safe deposit box. Our local branch is relocating and they told us to come in and get our stuff. When I went to return the key/check the box, they told me they are doing away with the boxes in all new locations. So basically there is very little value. The first year we opened a brokerage account with our dedicated banker/broker but the returns were less than stellar so we moved everything to Vanguard and have done much better.

Still better than what CPC offers, IMHO. However, BofA service DOES suck big time!
