Was convinced to apply due to the plethora of benefits, way too many to list. 675 TransUnion and 672 Equifax at the time of application. Good Standing with an Auto Loan. Immediately approved for a $16,300 Limit. If you plan on even taking 1 trip this year, then the card is already worth it.
Chase invited to apply for this card from my online acccount so that seems that I would be preapproved, especially as I have been a credit, banking, loan and mortgage customer for over 25 years. They appproved, sent me the card about 5 days latter. Two days latter I go online and my account is closed. What kind of horrible way to ttreatit a customer. Why even approve it, let alone send a card. Typical of the kind of terrible experiences others get from Chase.

Applied for this card as I’m traveling a lot for work and wanted to capitalize on the points & benefits. CK said my scores were around 680 & I have about an 180k annual income. Received a call a few hours after the application was submitted from an unknown number, called them back and was approved for 10K after a few verification questions. Excited for all the perks!
Packed with perks
Huge sign up bonus and very good 3x rate on travel and dining. Airport lounge access is nice as is the $300 travel credit and $85 TSA Pre. So far we have used all those perks and already earned an additional 15k in rewards in just the first two months. Have not had to use customer service so can’t speak to it’s quality.
Fav travel card!
I do love my chase sapphire reserve card , but i hate there customer service , it sucks. I maximize on my card and use it for travel and dining to get my 3x points and on anything else I use my other credit card. I would like to try out the Amex platnuim card or the MasterCard black card to see what the comparisons really are , but so far love my chase sapphire reserve
Excellent travel rewards card
Was approved in Feb 2019 with a 734 FICO, 771 CK TU, 90k income. Approved for 23,300 instantly, first Chase card and no other Chase relationships. Love the shopping portal (10X points easily becomes 15X when using th travel portal, more transferring to partners. Customer service has been... Okay. Not Discover by any means or AmEx, but not Capital One. Travel credit is extremely generic and encompassing and priority pass has goten me multiple free steak dinners on trips. Would recommend it if you can his the bonus requirement and the effective 150 fee make it a keeper for the lng term. Another often overlooked perk is National Emerald Executive status. Ive rented a midsize for 3 days for about 215 and got a premium lux SUV which is closer to 730 for the same trip! What a benefit.
I’m considering getting this card myself. I always bought a previous relationship with chase would help your case. Did you apply online??
1000% Worth It
I'll admit, the $450 annual fee scared me - the idea of paying that much for a credit card seemed ludicous to me. But this card is so worth it - I never thought I would rave about a credit card, but here I am. So far it has delivered on everything promised, including the $300 travel credit. I just came back from a trip to Morocco that I booked with points I earned with the Sapphire Preferred before I upgraded to the Reserve. Upgrading to the Reserve was an easy call to Chase a year after owning the Preferred card. The travel company I booked my Morocco trip with required travel insurance, which this cc covered, saving me about $100. I used the Priority Pass lounges at all airports I visited & was very happy with the free meals and drinks I enjoyed. I utilized the global entry & TSA precheck, which saved me a good amount of time & aggravation. So far the card has been worth more than the annual fee I paid. If you travel a lot, you will love an appreciate this card. The perks and benefits are excellent.
Highly recommend obtaining this card
High balance hard
I have a 760/763/820 credit score with an income of 163k and was just approved for $33,500. I also have a Discover (20k) Amex platinum and a few other lower balance cards. I havn't used this card yet but im excited about it. I'll update if I have any issuse.
Do they ask for verification or proof of income
Approved on second try, not instantly
Trans: 748 - Eq: 745 - Exp: 720 /// 1 Year 7 Month history with 3 cards // ~$50,000 income // Denied for having too many credit inquiries (11 within past 12 months), then approved for $10,000 limit a month later with no changes (12 within past 12 months), after calling Chase Rep.
"Thank you for your request. We need to review your request a little longer." - I called the Chase App Status line 3 days after this message and was approved
Note: SEVEN of the 11-12 inquiries were from a dealership that sent my information to several other institutions without my consent.
Was this your first chase card? I want to apply, but i don't have any chase cards or history with them.
"Great Travel Card"
After doing my research about this card I was definitely interested but didn't have the best credit score so that made me nervous about applying. I had been trying to rebuild it over the past few months and at the time of applying I had my utilization down to 0% for 3 consecutive months, 2 late payments from 5 years ago, about 8 years of credit history and no other credit cards opened in the past few years. Credit score was a 669-671 and I was instantly approved for 14K. Can't wait to start using it and taking advantage of the perks that come with it. Hope this helps other people who may not have a high 700 score feel confident in applying and it really is the epitome of "you never know".
What if u make $15 per hour and full time and got 700 credit scote
Excited
Went to chase branch and I was told that I was pre approved for both CSP and CSR. Transunion 747, Equifax 727 and 722 on my FICO 8. I was instantly approved for 10k !!
Only 14 months of credit history ( capital one $800 and Amex magnet 10k). So happy to finally got this card, now ready to travel.
