If you close a chase card do you have to wait a few days/weeks before applying for a new chase card. In other words will chase immediately know your cumulative credit limit has declined as soon as any card is cancelled? Or does it take some time? |

You can also call chase and have them consolidate your credit line on one card.

I applied for both the Sapphire and Continental cards at the same time. Called reconsideration about the Sapphire and she just moved a portion of my line from an old Chase non-rewards card. Waited a bit and called about the Continental and the CSR wanted to pull another bureau. I declined. Called back later and got the same CSR from the first call unfortunately who was then more hesitant. I offered to close the old Slate for the new CO, which she did but the apps has gone to review. We'll see how that goes next week.
So 2 apps in 60 days may be correct but you may not want to do them at the same time. Normally I space my apps at 90 days so I'll just do one Chase personal each round I suppose. |
Its not just the amount of cards you have but also the amount of time you have had it open for as well as the amount of credit chase has open to you, and the amount of credit on each card. I have about 4 credit cards from chase for about 5 years now and have no problem open new cards.
Also, from my experience personal and business are different and don't really effect each other. |
Chase is known to be rather conservative. I was just turned down for my 4th Chase (CO), saying I had too many open. I only use UA Mileage Plus, but don't want to close my ancient Slate or Freedom because they are my oldest revolving accounts. Meanwhile, everyone else and their mother gives me ridiculously high limits (much more on a single card than all my Chase cards combined). Oh, well.
