I was recently denied for approval on the Chase Hyatt card, would you recommend that I call and ask to be reconsidered? The letter mentioned I had too many recent accounts open. If not how long should I wait before reapplying?

I was denied for the amex blue business for not having at least 6 months of credit, should I wait another 4 months before applying for a personal card as well or is that for business only? (I currently only have 2 months of credit)

I appreciate the info. I recently obtained the Amex Business Gold. It was relatively easy, but I have a long standing relationship with Amex. The Chase Ink Preferred with the 80 k Bonus is next. Can you transfer your Ink points to a family member's CSP account? Thanks

I do instacart which is like uber/lyft but you go and buy/deliver groceries. You get a 1099 so I think this would be considered a business. What do you think?

I've been rejected for the INK Cash twice. Hopefully this years go around will be different.

I have business preferred ink and unlimited ink. Am I still eligible for this card? Is it considered as separate product?

I’m confused, say on day 1 of the monthly cycle I spend $500 then do not spend anything until the end of the circle. Would I get charged the same amount of interest if I spent $500 on day 29 of my circle instead of day 1? As from day 2-28 do they work out the interest on a daily basis?

Does having a chase business card inherently mean that you will have to file separate taxes for your sole proprietorship even if your business is just mowing lawns, reselling on ebay, etc…

Great videos! Do the credit card companies look at or care if you charge personal expenses on a business card?

I’m a landlord so I have a small business. So I really just want to get one for the initial bonus points and just the rewards you can get. Like the Amex Blue Business that earns 2x points on everything.
