win333, it's not BS, it's called checks and balances, and I'm sure Venturion appreciated the feedback on his plan.

Venturion, if you've discovered Chase considers each business a separate credit entity...wow, that HUGE.

Atleast you know they can't take credit line from your other cards Cause your already using it!

Hendricks looking at A/A and beating it to death are 2 different things. I want to know about it also, but not every second of the day. You say i'm beating it do death, well just call me the BALANCE

Sorry OP i'll take it to PM if need be.

Now if everyone could get their minds off of A/A, maybe we could figure out why you were able to get soooo many cards. Most might think it's because you used your CORP but I don't think so because you've broken the 5 RECORD that has been set for personal and biz together.

I wonder if you found the apps that aren't comunicating with all of chase (if that makes sense). Like I said before, BRIAN got 5 first U.S.A. INQs, maybe yours are split between CHASE, CHASE na, First U.S.A. and others. It will be interesting to see.

Venturion said:As to disputing inquiries, do you really want to have a discussion on honesty with regards to this subject matter?
Well, what do you put as the reason to dispute the inquiry?

Venturion are you saying that out of 28 apps, you think only 3 tried experian.

2 BofA
1 HSBC

I think that only three tried exclusively to pull Experian. I am guessing several of the issuers tried pulling all three but were satisfied when they were able to pull two. Let's see as the inquiries continue to roll in.

So I think I disputed 5 inquiries total.I actually see these as legit disputes - you didnt apply for a Barclay's card or a First USA card, you applied for Juniper, Bank Atlantic, and Chase cards. I would've played ignorant and disputed all of them, not 3 of 4 and 1 of 2. They're more than capable of verifying the inquiries and explaining that they are the same company using different names; no one could ever just expect you to know that. The Citi one, meh.....

Okay - the Chase story is getting more interesting by the moment.

Let's start at the beginning. I applied for 7 chase biz cards (mostly co-branded) and at least 3 personal cards (I'm not certain of the issuer for a couple of the cards - please see OP).

My calls to the application status toll-free number have been constantly updated. At COB yesterday, I had 3 of 4 apps approved under my SS# and 4 of 4 apps approved under my business EIN#. Today, the same 4 of 4 business apps remain approved with the same details (promo rates, etc.). However, the personal apps have now shifted to 1 of 4 approved AND the approved card has shifted. Yesterday the 3 personal approved cards had CLs from $13.5K to $15K. Today's single personal approval has a $38K credit line (which is my Sony card). My Starbucks personal card application was withdrawn when a Chase analyst called and said I could only apply for it OR the Sony card. I wish I had put a higher BT request for those cards. I put $35K on both and I could tell he just arbitrarily picked $38K to keep a bit above. Perhaps I will call back for a CLI while dangling more BT requests.

Anyway, Chase is definitely making it fun. As to inquiries, I'm up to 9 on Equifax and 7 on Transunion. Experian remains frozen with 6 (mostly from 7/07 A0R). I will attempt to unfreeze Experian so that I can apply for the pre-approved BoA card that Jakeru has kindly shared. That's on schedule for next week once I know that BoA won't try to pull for the two failed (PetRewards and MilesEdge) BoA apps in this A0R.

Glitch - good info. I would add that I've only gotten 3 permutations: 1) under review 2) approved with CL and regular APR and 3) approved with CL, regular APR, and promotional APR with expiration. I haven't had any declines or approved without CL through the numerous iterations.

I definitely agree that the phone system has a 4-item queue limit. Let's see what comes in the mail!

I just can't figure out chase, you have CHASE and First U.S.A. INQs. So thats 2 INQs for 10 apps. Brian got 6 First U.S.A. INQs for his trouble.

Isn't bankone owned by chase, I wonder if you could include a bankone app or 2 (or is bankone gone). I have had about 4 different chase INQs on my credit reports.

If we could REALLY match each INQ to each card, then I think we could figure out which cards to apply for without hitting each division up for to many accounts.

If we could all work on this, the results could be amazing.

Good idea. Unfortunately, I already have the Sears card and haven't found a CSR willing/able to consolidate it. As to the other two, I'm game. I should be ready in few weeks for another spree.

Venturion said:The deed is done. I applied for 28 cards: 11 business and 17 personal. I will post the list here in a day or two.

28 Cards
3 instant accepts for $38K (all personal)
2 unable to pull Experian (personal BofA cards)
1 need to send stuff in (1 Pulaski personal card)
1 error message (HSBC personal card)
7 Chase or co-branded business cards (deferred)
14 biz and personal cards (deferred)

Starting bumping and disputing. Now comes the wait.

are you giving up on the boa cards?
