I have the quicksilver card. So I got the freedom card for the categories. I’m trying to get as many categories as I can for 5% back.
What if I have both?
I have citi double cash and freedom right now. Obviously since I don't have preferred or reserve yet, UL will gain only 1.5% cash back unless I spend on groceries. Should I get the UL still with this set up? I may consider the preferred or just branch of into discover it in the future maybe in 6 to 12 months. Discover it sounds more viable but I can take advantage of the grocery category for UL right? All other spend I can put onto Citi DC? I just recently got freedom in feb or march so I can prob guarantee getting the UL, not yet for preferred. I'm at 3/24. W/ UL it will be 4/24. Let me know your thoughts.
Definitely Unlimited, because it's generally weak. So this is one of the better times to get it.
What should I do if I applied for a Chase Unlimited and got this message "you earned a new cardmember bonus on the same product in the last 24 months."
I got the Chase Freedom back in April. Any turn around to this?

Chase Freedom Unlimited usage would sky rocket if Chase increased the point earning to 2x points on all spend on anything.
If I have the freedom Unlimited and I have had this car for over two years can I apply for another FREEDOM Unlimited
Through September the CFU is a good cash back card (if you have the CSR too) since you can redeem the full 2.3% value for cash spent in certain categories. I hope they continue that program longer. At least until travel actually becomes a thing again…
So as I understand you, since I already have the (CF) Chase Freedom, I can now also apply for the (CFU) Chase Freedom Unlimited.
Will I then be eligible for the $200.00 cashback bonus, plus the 5% on Groceries for the first year, even if I already possess the CF.
Is there much of a hurdle getting approved for the CFU?
I have a great payment record with my CF, and my FICO 8 is right around 800.
Thanks!
Thanks for rubbing it in, Dustin.😫
Freedom unlimited has a 0% APR for 15months offer. So the unlimited is better if you plan to take advantage of it.
Thanks for this video; I know exactly what I am going for the chase Freedom and use in conjunction with my Discover It card since the 5% categories don’t overlap. Also, I am using PayPal MasterCard 2% on everything. Great trifecta combination ~
Chase Freedom Unlimited is for the purchases that night need an extended warranty or price protection
All I can think of when I’m looking at the title is “they may take our lives but they'll never take our FREEEDDOMMM!”
Could you make a video detailing what we can use Chase Ultimate Rewards for? I have the Freedom, CSP, and CSR. Lots of points which I have been transferring to United Airlines. But haven't been travelling much so that's topped out. Would love a quick guide on how we can benefit from the Chase Rewards points. Thanks!
I still think the lights on the bottom would look better. Let's try that out on the next video and we'll see if I change my mind. Take care Dustin and stay safe!
Where did you get your microphone? (not the same one in the description…)
What town do you live in? I was just up hiking in Acadia. Maine is beautiful!
I have $100 referral for Freedom Unli, was gonna refer my wife. But I think we can benifit from 2 Freedoms as we usually max out our categories every quarter.
Just one note about the CFU referral, it appears you can’t get the 5x grocery bonus with a referred CFU.
why is this a versus??? they supposed to compliment each other.
Can you start with a freedom card and save the points for a year or so and transfer them to ultimate rewards?
I currently have the CSR and the Ink Business Preferred. I value the travel UR points. I was thinking about having my wife take out one of these cards to maximize the UR points, but I can't decide which one would be best. Would you do both?? Thanks!
hey would I be ok to apply for these cards if I have never had a credit card before and have a 750ish score?
Do I need to open chase checking account to have card??
