    Confused as to why youre calling a freedom unlimited card entry level. I just got the card and it’s not for beginners. You need around a 700 with established credit to get it. It took me 2 years of paying correctly and establishing credit to be approved. I have a 720 fico ex and a 740 eq. So not sure why you sahy that. Peolple just starting out will not qualify for the freedom unlimited a simple google search shows that.

    great video so my question is what are your thoughts about this comment I rec'd when I had asked someone else about this CFU double cash back promo you mentioned in your video? But that offer is actually worse than offer we have for the CFU and CFF, which is 5x on up to $12,000 spent in combined gas and grocery. Earning 5x on $12k spend earns you 60,000 URs. Earning an extra 1.5x on $20k spend earns you only 30k URs.

    the Freedom Rise is more or less like the CFU before the revamp. When I got the CFU back in 2018 the CFU only had 1.5% on everything and that was it. But the Freedom Rise is easier to get into Chase ecosystem than CFU imo bc when I got my CFU it took me almost a month to get it approved.

    So questions, I have a itin and got my chase freedom unlimited over a year ago. I've been pre-approved for both a sapphire preferred and reserved. Since I'm just starting I doubt I'll get the reserved this early on, plus I don't travel much to make the best of it. And like a month ago I also got a capital one quicksilver card and I ended up cosigning for someone to take out a loan which I wish I could go back and not do that. Now the question is, should I wait to take out the sapphire preferred or just say F and take it out even after the quicksilver and the cosign?

      Chase in general is hard kinda and picky to get into their system. I’d advise you have a checking/savings with them first. If you already do, then yes, I’d recommend getting a more beginner friendly card for you to get into the system. Into a feel of using a CC, and how different it really is from debit. Personal recommendation is the Capital one savor one. They’re very accepting of students and those new to credit.

    Ok ok. So let me get this straight! I personally own the freedom unlimited and I was looking to get the Amex gold for food spending. You said the unlimited gets 3x on everything and 6x on food….BUT it sounds like it’s only for the first year after sign up. Am I correct? I’ve owned this for a few years now so if that’s the case then I missed that train haha.

    • @Plazali
      @Plazali 2 месяца назад

      That is correct. It’s for the first year, and for up to $20,000 worth of spend. I’d say if you’re looking for a food type card, I’d say go for Amex Gold. Since you already own the FU, you wouldn’t be able to take advantage of the SUB for the extra 1.5x on all categories, so there’s no use in relying on the card for food benefits. I currently own the Amex Gold, and it’s worked out great, as expected. Plus, they’re right, it is kind of a flex. Really fun card.

    • @MichaelB-od3xh
      @MichaelB-od3xh 7 месяцев назад

      No if you wait 6 months you most likely WON'T get the Rise as it is a starter card. What John should have mentioned is that your approval odds for the Rise go up a lot if you open a Chase checking account beforehand and put at least $250 in it. But be aware the Rise is NOT for people with bad credit or rebuilding credit. The card is for people with no credit or are just starting out.
      I had no credit and then in late September I applied for a Capital One unsecured Platinum Mastercard and was approved with a small $300 credit limit. I also got a Discover It secured card and an Amazon secured card. So then I read about the Chase Freedom Rise and thought it would be great to get in with Chase. I opened a Chase checking account online but put no money in it. Then I applied for the Freedom Rise and was given a 7-10 day review. I called Chase the next day and they told me I was denied. I asked to speak to someone in reconsideration and the guy spoke with me and asked me if I was planning to put any money in the Chase checking account. I told him yes, he put me on hold for awhile and eventually got approved over the phone with a $500 credit limit.
      I still waited 3 more weeks to put money in the Chase checking account - ended up putting $500 in it, but now I've had the card for over a month and I'm glad I got it. Bottom line, apply as soon as possible and open a Chase checking account and put at least $250 in it before applying, unless you want to take a chance like I did lol.

    I actually think the "Flex" is better than the "unlimited", even though he makes it seems like the extra 1.5% bonus is better.
    The "Flex" gives you 9% on gas and groceries for the first year.
    While the "unlimited" only gives you 5% max per quarter within the year.
    The extra 1.5% becomes irrelevant, since your saving more on the two most important things for people, gas and groceries.

      @@antoniomaya4574 9% when Gas or Grocery Stores are one of the categories for any given quarter in the first year. Essentially, you always get a minimum of 1% cash back. For the first year, under the current offer you get an additional 4% cash back bringing you up to 5% cash back on gas and groceries up to $12,000 during the first year. When Gas/Groceries is one of the quarterly 5% cash back categories, Chase offers you another 4% bringing cash back up to 9% for that category during that quarter.
