I agree Bill,
I made mistake of not knowing about rules before started applying. Now I’m locked out until Jan 2021, but I’m not very concerned seeing how CHASE devalues or makes more expensive their cards, while other Banks sweetening the deals and adding protections and benefits. Yes CHASE was the best for a long time, but it lost its luster in past few months and recent increase of CSR’s AF to $550 can already see effects of what people think of CHASE now. I will not wait for CHASE for sure… My own AMEX Trifecta – AMEX Gold, AMEX Bonvoy Brilliant and AMEX Business Bonvoy make more sense for me anyways. And I’m not in hurry to get AMEX Platinum until they add another multiplier useful for my spending habits. There is a life without CHASE.

As far as you know, will they count?

Can I get the bonus if I apply the same business card, say Chase Business Preferred, for both businesses? Not at the same time. Any comments?

Hi Shay,

I’m only aware of the Sapphire products having the more restrictive 48 month waiting time frame to earn another bonus. All of their other cards (as far as I’m aware) have a 24 month time frame.

Hi Cody,

They can pull your personal credit report, but it won’t count towards 5/24 (Chase business credit cards don’t count towards the 5/24 count). So you can absolutely still apply with your SSN.

I use eBay as a business but don’t use a tax identification number…what should I do?

I know for personal Sapphire and Southwest cards you can only get the welcome bonus every 48 months, used to be 24. Are the business cards 24 months? They do not state anymore in the fine print terms anymore.

With United and Lufthansa changing the redemption rules, the Sapphire and United cards become less valuable. Marriott is awash with devaluation. So yes, it’s true. You don’t have to stop. Do what I’ve done.
I have gone over to Amex, Citi and Barclay’s and accumulated lot’s of points and miles in other programs while Chase has earned a spot in my sock drawer.
If Chase want’s to have a 5/24 rule with Chase cards, I can live with that. But there are other programs that I also like. With Chase they penalize you for thinking that way. No thanks.

So, anticipating some travel to the UK I applied for the Aer Lingus card in December 2018 and was denied w/o explanation. Is there a way to determine AHEAD OF TIME if your application will be approved/denied. In other words, will Chase respond to telephone inquiries regarding new applications?

Any way around that? I’ve reapplied, called, etc. to no avail.
