Strategy to obtain US Amex

[georgie23]

Update for the Chase Business Unlimited. Contacted the status line and was told I will receive a letter within 7-10 business days. Contacted Chase via phone and was told I need to complete a W9 form. Anyone done this before and any risk with this? I will then need to fax it to their number.

Edit! Just contacted backend team (someone in earlier threads said to do this). Have been provided a secure link to upload passport / ITIN / address

Similar for me - applied last night - called in this morning and they ID via app which was nice - told they can’t verify my ITIN - uploaded all documents via link - will wait.

I just called 1888-204-8630 to confirm they got the documents and they are processing them - if you can't get through to a person press 0 - 3 times - that gets me through to an operator

I'll be calling them later today.

Agents and managers from the fraud team could not see any typical reason for the closure, except for the fact that it was because of inconsistent usage. There's no recourse/appeal available. Looks like its the end of C1 journey.

Thank you. I’ve been doing that.

The Chase application chart does say once they receive documents, wait 2-3 days rather than calling in so you don’t get asked any tough questions and get a manual approval in the background

Tough - clearly seems C1 and ITIN are only a matter of time for now - maybe the business cards would be ok but you would have to think that if cheque/saving and personal are out that will happen to business too

What did they define this as ?

nope, just that.
Supervisior did mention she didn't think there were any red flags about the transactions per se.
