$1000 cash back less:
- $95 annual fee
- $50-100 opportunity cost for spending $5000 on a card that only gives 1%cb when you could have gotten 2-3%cb.
Still over $800 tax-free profit. Not bad at all.
Considering it. I have one more application before I hit chase 5/24, then wait for a boosted amex gold or platinum bonus.
Any 0% apr period on this?
Will they treat a tax payment at pay1040 as a cash advance? Most credit card vendors treat it as a purchase.

Applied for my wife who was "pre-approved" through her Chase login and account information. She has 800+ credit. been a Chase customer for 20 years. Yet it gets held up for "potential fraud". Call the # they give which just takes us to credit department. They try "processing" her application but doesn't work, she needs to upload additional verification documentation. Never mind the she's been a customer for 20 years and pre-approved part. Now we wait weeks to get approval in the mail? What the hell is this Chase? This should been an approved in 30 seconds application.
Who is paying property taxes now? Way late. 😂
Due on April 10 (today) in California

No reason to have more than one Freedom Unlimited- each one has no practical spending cap and offers 1.5x UR points, so more than one is pointless.
There IS reason to have multiple freedom or freedom flex cards though, as they only earn 5x UR in the quarterly categories up to $1500 of spend in a quarter... so having a second gives you a second $1500 5x earning cap... (or a third with 3 of em).
Which is useful for things like moving spending between quarters... for example if they're doing wholesale clubs one quarter, but you don't spend 3k in a single quarter at Costco, you use your two Freedom cards to buy $3000 in Costco gift cards... then use them in future quarters when you otherwise can't do better than like 2-3.5% on other cards.
Can do the same thing with grocery gift cards, gas gift cards, etc in their respective quarters.
I've got 2 regular freedom cards (one was a CSP many years ago), and just downgraded my CSR to a Freedom Flex so I can get the 100k offer on CSP- so I'm at 3 5x Freedom cards plus one unlimited..... (and an ink cash for 5x on other stuff, plus one IHG for the free night, status, and 4th night free... and one each Marriott biz and personal cards for the free annual nights and 30 elite nights annually)- so this new CSP will be my 9th active chase card.
if you call right after approval and ask they'll expedite it 2nd day delivery
I been using it on Apple Pay for now, but need it before tax doomsday to pay lol

That said, the day following the initial approval, card was available to load to Apple Pay. Very smooth process and was able to begin purchasing online and taping the card at merchants.
