When does this offer expire?

@Yitzi:
I’m not sure, but it is a limited time offer.

If you want to apply for multiple cards at the same time (and for more info why this is a good idea) see this DDF thread: http://www.dansdeals.com/forums/index.php?topic=8028

In case guys have problems here are some useful Chase contacts:
Chase: 800-432-3117 (Application status)
Chase: 888-270-2127 (Application reconsideration)
Chase: 877-781-3109 (Card combining & card type changes)
Chase: 888-245-0625 (Credit Analyst reconsideration)
Chase: 888-622-7547 (Chase Executive Office)

If you have a Chase checking account you can also ask a banker in a branch to send in a reconsideration request form if you are rejected for a Chase credit card.

Is it for first time card holders only ?

oy i just applied for the ba chase card, together with my existing chase freedom card would a third card be too many for chase to allow?

Great offer but was expecting a little better with all the chatter

Is there a business version of this offer?

@Jason:
Unknown at this point.

@chaim yankel:
I have 6 active Chase cards and will likely try for 7!
Their reconsideration department is very good.

@Shlomo:
It’s a great card between the waived annual fee for the first year, the flexibility of the points, the 0% foreign fee, the instant live operators…

And 50K points for free is still nothing to sneeze at!

Can you transfer the points from this card to anyone’s Continental account or does it have to be your own? Do the names have to match?

the $500 refund thing.. i can do it as many times as i want? or just once a year

also 1 more thing… can i paypal myself $3000? and this way is as if i spent 3 grand

@sara:
You can transfer to anyone’s Continental account.

@albert:
$1,000 per year maximum.

@albert:
Not a good idea to paypal yourself $3,000. Paypal isn’t going to like that as they consider that to be a cash advance.

so its a cash advance regardless of who i send the money to? myself or a friend

@albert:
You can send $3,000 to a friend and have him just give you the cash.

You can also use Amazon payments or AMEX Serve where you can send money to friends and they don’t charge any credit card processing fees!

so then why dont i sent my friend 10,000 a month and he will just give it back to me.. and this way il rack up serious amounts of miles and points

@albert:
Both AMEX Serve and Amazon payments have limits of how much you can do for free each month.

oh i got it… and how much is that limit per a month? and does paypal also have a limit?

@albert:
This is getting off-topic.
I invite to come on over to http://www.dansdeals.com/forums to discuss it further.

Hi dan,
I got a denial letter from chase stating “too many requests for credit or opened accts with us”
So Dan what should I tell the reconsideration dept.?

@moishe:
I usually ask them to close an older account in order to approve a new account and move the credit from the older account to the new account.

In the early part of the discussion of CO vs UA reward travel you mention:
“-Continental has always allowed you to have a free stopover and an open-jaw”

I am pretty sure this is not true for domestic redemptions. A stopover costs you 35,000 in coach, instead of the usual 25,000, even if saver inventory is available.

I just booked one to test and used Houston as the stopover point since it is absolutely on the published routing for the trip and got the 35k price.

I also tried the open jaw, and was successful with that for no additional cost.

So clarify if you have new information.
Thanks

Can I do a balance transfer for 3k to pay off another card and would that be considered spending 3,000 miles on the card in order to get the 50k continental points???

not so hot, you gotta spend 3k?

if i want to apply for the 50k chase one pass and the 50k sapphire what should i do? is there anyway to make it only one hard hit on my report? will chase give me issues with multiple apps? thanks

dan, ur a rock star! if i want to open this cc just for for the short term benifits( the miles) and then i would cancel the account, how does that effect my credit, meaning the opening and closing of the account? also, if it does effect my credit, is it better if i keep the account open. and does it make a diff for my creidt how quickly i close the account. ive wanting to get clarity on this topic for a while. thanks alot dan.

I have a high credit score but not many cards or credit and chase denied me saying that I don’t have enough history. Do you think calling the reconsideration department will help? I’d take a lower line to get this. What do you think? Txs!

I applied for the sapphire card a year and a half ago and was rejected because I didn’t have enough credit. I then got the chase freedom card, and spent around $50,000 on it in the last year and half, without missing a payment. Do you think I would now be able to get approved for the sapphire? I don’t want to be rejected again.

i just got my BRITISH airways card you guys had posted a few weeks ago with what seems like the same deal should i activate it or ask for SAPPHIRE deal instead

How bad does it affect the credit score to open & close credit cards often?

@ljderm:
I should have been more clear.
Continental allows a free stopover on all awards except for the US48/Canada 25K award.

@jeff:
I don’t think that counts.

@zalmy:
It’s really not so hard to spend $3,000.
Between mint coins, amex gift cards, amazon payments, amex serve, and many more ways as talked about on http://www.dansdeals.com/forums you should be able to do that in no time.

@charles:
I applied for and got approved for 3 Chase cards a couple weeks ago with some help from the Chase reconsideration departments.
I only got 1 credit hit.
Just use different web browsers (Like IE, Firefox, and Chrome) and hit submit on one after the other.
Other Chase cards include:
Hyatt
United
Southwest
Continental

@yak:
I usually don’t cancel an account outright.
I’ll keep it and then apply for a new card and have them move over the credit line from the old card to get another new one approved.

I’ve cancelled hundreds of cards over the years though and still have a credit score in the high-700s.

@Ed:
Sure, definitely call them!

@bob:
I’m sure you can get approved now. Even if they do reject you be sure to call reconsideration and see what they can do-they work miracles!

@yomo:
You can do both!

@sp:
I do it all the time and still have a top-notch score!

if you take hyatt points can you then transfer to miles.. is it worth it, or only from starwoods?

@ummm:
Which miles are you looking for? Does BA or Continental not work for you?

The only hotel points that are really worth transferring to miles are Starwood Starpoints.
You’ll lose too much in the Hyatt transfer.

If I make a British Airways reservation with miles, do they charge to change things like dates, times, departure/arrival cities, etc…?

I know some airlines do, but is BA one of them?

How do u track all ur cards/points….do you have some sort of spread sheet..

@help awardwallet.com

DAN, DOES CHASE STILL ALLOW YOU TO APPLY FOR 2 CARDS USING ONLY 1 CREDIT PULL?

i just got my BA card, should i wait to apply for a new chase card? if ye how long?

i received my wifes BA chase card with me being a second card holder being that im canadian and dont have a social do i still get 50k for each card when i spend the 1st dollar with each or does i count as one account with 2 cards

Can I ask chase to spit credit from my existing chase cards to go to this card.think at this point they won’t offer me new credit

Dan, I dont plan on using the points for flights. Is there a company that you recommend that buys 50k points?

Dan,
I already have the chase Saphire (not preffered) version.
Anyway to convert it to the preffered version?
Or do I need to apply again and close(or combine) the other account?

A little off topic, I recently got the chase presidential plus card. 1 of the benefits is platinum level at Hyatt. Is it worth anything?

for some reason I cant seem to find a way to add the saphhire to awardwallet please help!

Thanks

Thanx dan! Just 2 questions: 1, if i write that im a student will it ruin my chances of getting approved? And does the gross household income have to be accurate? Do they have any way of checking?
2, can i buy coins from the mint to spend 3k and then deposit it in my account to pay the cc bill?

If I applied for the BA card a month ago- will chase need to pull my credit again?
Also- if I want to transfer my chase credit from another Chase account to this new card- do they have access to all the cards on their computer?

Hi Dan,

I have the feedom cc and the BA, i called them to close the freedom one and transfer the credit to the BA cc and they say that the cant do that, i asked why and she said, you cant, period! do you have any idea why i cant ? and how should i do to be able to do that? cuz the freedom it doesnt really give me anything.
Thanks

I applied for the BA card with perfect credit, and they denied me, saying that I got 3 chase cards in 8 months. Is there anything to do about it, and will they also deny me if I apply for the Sapphire?

I have a chase saphire card for about 10 months besides for a chase freedom card that I have for a few years, can I still get this offer? And would I be able to downgrade it before the 2nd year?

i have a ba card with 100k miles, if i get this card is there anyway to transfer all the miles to a continental card?

@MIKE:
I got approved for 3 chase cards with 1 credit pull 2 weeks ago.

@eli:
Probably 30 days between apps.

@Shlomo:
Apply and then call reconsideration.

@Chaim:
There’s a banner on the top of the site to sell miles!

@steve:
You’ll need to apply again to get this bonus.

@yitz:
Sure, check out http://www.dansdeals.com/forums for more discussion of off-topic questions though.

@Meir:
It goes by household income. Chase doesn’t verify it. You can buy mint coins.

@Avi:
They can transfer credit lines when you open the card. They will probably pull your credit again.

@Dovid:
The Chase Freedom card is actually great if you also have a bank account.
They give 10 points per transaction…even on one penny transaction! If you also have a Sapphire Preferred you can then transfer points to miles!

You can only transfer lines/close cards when you apply for a new card.

@Mitch:
Call the reconsideration department.

@ll:
You can try. If they deny you just call reconsideration and have them close the regular sapphire to approve the sapphire preferred.

@dov:
No, those miles can’t be transferred from BA.

This is very improtant for anybody who has applied for chase saphire i recent months when they were only giving
25,000 points
this is an email i sent them yesterday

To whom it may concern;
I opened up this account on 3/28.At the time there was a promotion of receiving 25,000 after you spend $3000. I should be credited that amnount after the enxt paymeny cycle.I just have 1 request.You currently have promnotion offering 50000 miles for spending the same amount of money. I would appreciate if you would credit me the extra 25,000 miles being that i opened my account so recently.

this is response i got a few hours later

Dear Sarah Weinberg,

Thank you for your inquiry about the bonus promotional
points on your Chase Sapphire Preferred card.

As requested, I have added the 25,000 points to your
account and this adjustment has been reflected online.

I would also like to inform you that your Chase Sapphire
Preferred card will no longer be charged with foreign
transaction fee. Please note that the Foreign Transaction
Fee waiver is automatic. There’s
nothing you need to do. All account information, rewards
and annual fees will stay the same.

It was a pleasure to assist you today. I appreciate your
business and hope to have the opportunity to serve you
again in the future.

If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.

Thank you,

Hi Dan,
If I previosuly had a Chase Sapphire before, and canceled a couple of years ago, would I still qualify for the 50,000 miles?

Is there a way to get the 1.07x bonus without paying an annual fee? (Just wondering how the timing works at the end/beginning of the first/second year)

Thanks

if you downgrade to non-preferred could you still get the 500 dollar credit

could i merge the ba card with this one and how would i go about doing that

@berish:
Well done!

@magnus:
Considering that you can always cancel/downgrade for at least 30 days after the annual posts the 2nd year you should not have a problem getting the 7% bonus.

@dov:
Yes.

@dov:
Apply for this card and then the card combining department can help you.

Hey-
Do they charge you to move your miles to continental? and if so how much? Thanks!

@Sara:
Nope (unlike AMEX which has a small charge) there is no charge at all for transferring Sapphire points to miles!

Dan, Im going abroad. Would this be the best card to use to avoid fees? Do they really charge no fees? Or do they have a bad currency exchange?
Would u advise to use this card, the amex starwood or pehaps a chase ba or contin? or capital one?

Tx

Can I apply for this credit card for my business? Do I just put the tx id in the ss# field?

Applied for this card, was denied (had opened continental card just 15 days back). Called the reconsideration department and asked them to move the credit lines and got it approved!

Thanks Dan for all the information!

dan,

what is the deadline to transfer the points into continental miles? (or is there not?)

dan just got the CO 50k mile card from chase. I want to wait a while to before I open this card. How long do you think this offer will be around?

@Sam:
This card is great for abroad.
Excellent exchange rate and no fees!

@jon:
This is a consumer card.

@SG:
Congrats!

@hendel:
There is no deadline, this card will continue to transfer to Continental points even after AMEX no longer does.

@jesse:
Don’t know…sorry!

Dan,

I tried calling Chase reconsideration as they denied my app for the hyatt and BA cards (I accidentally did both apps in SAME browser – misunderstood the distinction). They said I had too many recent inquiries from various banks. The reconsideration dept. guy told me that they won’t open new card for me even if i lower/transfer credit line from other chase cards i have. I have 20k credit between united and continental cards. I stressed by perfect history/high credit score but he wouldn’t budge.

Is it worth calling them back if their reconsideration dept says no? I even got a second denial letter.

Is it even worth applying for this offer instead?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

On a side note: I just got approved for my third amex platinum though I had to call to get them to push the app through as it has only been 45 days since I cancelled the last one and thier system therefore cancelled my app.

We’ll see if I get another 50k.

I applied for the BA card over a month ago, but had to call to get it approved- and that was less than a month ago. I would like to apply for three new Chase cards. Should I wait 30 days from the application date, or 30 days from the approval date?

The reconsideration is great. I was rejected for the BA Card as well as the Sapphire card. I called Chase and got approved for both cards.

The freedom card also has 5% cash back for different categories each quarter. This is sometimes worth more than points, but you have to wait 6-8 weeks to get it. For example April thru June you get 5% back on home furnishings, gardening supplies and other things. My daughter just ordered beds for over $1000. 1000 points are worth $10 but 5% back is $50 so that is pretty good.

yay!! got the card 2day….thanx dan!!!

@Dan: dan do you know if chase recodideration dept does another hard pull?

Dan 1)if ally for amex and chase the same time do they each see that i applied for other bank at the same time.
2)i got offer for 40k plus 15k madalion miles delta plus 100.00 to sing up for amex delta platinum card do you think its worth it. (i have two hits with amex in last 10 month)

I applied for Chase ba and I got approved but I got denied when I applied for asspire because I just opend Chase ba .any idea what I should do

@Dan: if i got declined and i want them to split the limit of another one of my card which number should i call thanks

@d 18882702127

was turned down by chase do to too many requests and i have the continental chase card seems amex has no problem but chase is more finiky about to many requests

update just called the reconsideration tel # u have in one of the above posts and they gave me the card

thanks dan your a real bargain hunter thks for hooking me onto these credit cards offering miles have uver a mill on amex thks to you

DAN, WILL AMEX FORSURE PULL MY CREDIT ON A NEW APPLICATION (THEY JUST PULL IT IN FEB FOR PLANTINUM CARD) I HAVE 3 AMEX CARDS IN GOOD STANDING?

Dan, I got turned down for the chase sapphire card for two many accounts open thru chase (3 total, 1 BA, 1 marriott 1 disney visa) I called them today and they offered to close the disney visa (no issue wife has one) to open this new card. He did say it COULD go towards my credit? Is it worth a current 786 credit score or hold off? Thanks as always!

@Chaim:
Sure, keep trying.

@dave:
They do not.

@mo:
They probably won’t see.

@MO:
Yes.

@Kevin:
Sure, have them apply your Disney credit line to the new Sapphire card.

I want to thank you so very much for the gret advice that you gave with the above promotion. I too was rejected for the sapphire crdit card because I had too many cards. I had just opened a BA account, which I should not have canceled, but I did because they denied me the promotion because I had already tken advantage of such a promotion. So I called the last number that you had listed for CHASE and i asked them to transfer my credit line. she found a card that I had not used in a year and transfered my credit. My cards came about 10 days later. So I’m not good for a couple of weeks. Thanks again

Hi Dan,

I just spoke with a senior account supervisor with Sapphire and he told me that there is no way I could get the 50,000 points if I signed up for Sapphire Preferred. I currently have a regular Sapphire card. Anyway I could be eligible for 50k points! Thanks!

When does the 3 months begin, from card activation or from approval? Or some other time?

i applied for chase sapphire, united and continental in 3 browsers at the same time on sun. thanks dan.
when i called i was able to move the required min. of 5k line to the sapphire and it was approved.
they told me the united was declined b/c i already have that card… but can cancel it and then immediately apply again.
the csr said not to try for the continental today since it’s less than 30 days since i got my BA chase card and they wont give me more than 2 cards in 30 days, but if i wait till thurs it’ll be 30 days after my BA card was approved and then call to try to approve the current pending status.

how do you get the saphire busniess?

any word on when this offer expires?

called chase to match the offer they said offers are usually 4 digits and couldnt find offer s6v

The forum members all had success sending Chase a secure message from their online account at chase.com.
Try that route and let us know how it goes!.

Hi Dan…

I have the Chase Sapphire card from when the introduced it a few years ago (with a 25K bonus). Will I be eligible for the new card/bonus if I apply?

dan – for 2 years i have been closed out from chase i beleive for buying coins – they keep on rejecting me – any good ideas to get back onto the chase circuit?

Worked via SM!

“As per the offer on your account, you will receive 50,000
Chase Sapphire bonus points after spending $3,000.00 in
purchases within 93 days of account open date. These
points will post to your account within one to two billing
cycles.

I feel that every relationship is based on mutual trust
and support, including one between a bank and a customer.
As a gesture of commitment to you, I have added additional
50,000 points to the rewards balance on your account.
This adjustment will reflect on your next statement.

Thank you”

I just applied for my wife and got approved but was denied via phone the additional 50K points. I need to wait for the card to see if the secure message works. On another note, I personally have the sapphire card. Can I transfer the points from my wife to myself without any issues?

@Sam:
Enjoy the free travels!

@Josh:
The card should show up in your online profile within a couple days, usually before you actually get the card, so just keep checking!

People have said that you should be able to transfer points between people in the same household but I haven’t tried it myself.

Just did some basic research: Account-to-Account Points Transfers: Points transfers are not currently available. We
will notify you when you may transfer points to other Ultimate Rewards accounts. At
that time, you may transfer points to any other eligible credit card or debit card with
Ultimate Rewards. Transfers may only be used to combine points belonging to the same
individual or business in the Program; or for the purpose of enabling spouses or domestic
partners to combine points earned in their respective names. If the transferee’s or your
credit card account(s) or checking account(s), as applicable, are in default at the time of
the transfer, Chase will not make the transfer. Once points are transferred, they cannot be
credited back.

Dan do you know which department to send the sm to?

Dan I just got my card a few days ago and already activated it. Can I call or message them about the additional points? or is it too late?

Hey Dan,

Just applied for the Chase Saphire Card. What is S6V and when do I send the message or call to try and get the additional 50,000 points – immediately after approval? Is there a better chance of them giving me the 50,000 extra points instantly without waiting for the 3 months if i call or send the secured message – what do you think? Also, how long does it take for me to check my application status for approval – what’s the fastest way to check the most updated status?

Thanks,

Chaim

Hi Dan…

I have the Chase Sapphire card from when the introduced it a few years ago (with a 25K bonus). Will I be eligible for the new card/bonus if I apply?

@Sruly:
Absolutely you can message them.

@Chaim:
As soon as your card shows up on your Chase.com online profile you can send a secure message.

@Jason:
It’s unknown at this point. If anyone tries it let us know!

I wans’t instantly approved, called in 10 minutes later and they said I was approved. The card does not show up in my chase online account, how long would it take to show up there?

I just got my points from my ba card is there a way to transfer my line of credit to this new card without them taking a credit pull? And still keeping both points?

dan you write that its 120,000 points to israel yet when i go to the continental website its 150,000 each way?

WHat is R6V?

@dave: thats bec all cheap fares are sold out

thank you dan i sent a message they sent me back that they will give the 100000 points

@abek:
Give it a few days or so.

@YouG:
You need to apply for this card to get a new card bonus. If they deny you then you can call up to switch the credit line from another card to this card.

@dave:
You need to learn how to search Continental partner availability to find 120K business tickets. Head on over to http://www.dansdeals.com/forums and start reading to become a pro!

@mike:
Congrats! Not hard at all, was it?

@abek: What number did you call? Did you have to ask them to give you an instant decision or did they just tell you you were approved?

@Meir:
There are numbers in this DDF thread to call about application status (as well as rejection reconsideration)
http://www.dansdeals.com/forums/index.php?topic=8028

@Meir:
Called 888-245-0625 they said it was still to early and thye dont know yet, I called back 5 minutes later and when i gave them my ss # the rep told me I was already approved.

just got it thanks alot dan easy as pie
my letter
To whom this may concern.

I recently received the chase preferred sapphire card. When I applied I received 50 thousand points.
But i am dismayed because my friend just applied for the same card with the code S6V and received 100 thousand points.
I just left american express and came to chase and cannot believe that only some people will receive 100 thousand points.
If you can please let me know if anything can be done it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Dear ,

I understand that you wish to receive the 100,000 points
offer on your Chase Sapphire account ending in .

I see that as per the offer that you applied for, you are

thanx dan!!!!!

worked for me they added 50 k right away

Dan,

Just used your 2 browser method last night to apply for this twice.

I call in today, they said since I used the same “offer” twice, they denied one, and the other is still pending :-(.

They didn’t respond to my inquiry so I resent an email. Within an hour I had an additional 50k deposited and the 50k to match the current offer. This means I will be getting 50k after spending the 3k dollars and an additional 100k!!!

Thanks so very much. I just took care of this offer last night, and magically this morning I received a similar reply that Abe ( the reply above mine) received. It really works!!!!!!!

I got the same response as Abe above from the same customer service advisor and the 50,000 points have been deposited into my account already.
Thanks Dan!

Dan, I wrote them last night. just got a response that they added an additional 50,000 points and I should see it on the next statement. This is awesome!!

Congrats to all you guys who got the bonus 50K, well done!
Looks like everyone who has sent a secure message online has been approved for the bonus 50K so far!

@Joe P:
The 2 or 3 browser method is for applying for 2 or 3 different cards from the same bank. Not for applying for the same card twice or 3 times…

Yech, shoot. Didn’t realize that. Guess I should have checked first. I thought I saw people receiving like 2-3 british airways deals….

i just asked for the extra 50k points and 10 min later they gave it to me!!!!1

Now with all these Ultimate Reward points, where do we put them? Especially since many of us had errors done with account and got extra points (like me), we want to move points out sooner then later.

With Amex ending MR points for Continental in 3 months, is Continental still best value? I see as far as staying at Hyatt (w/o Hyatt Chase), we can spend 4-5 nights in Grand Hyatt anywhere with 100K points. No other card seems to be able to compete in obtaining Hyatt points so quickly.

Dan, please guide us….

Worked for me 🙂

They reposnded within an hour:

thanks dan just got extra 50,000 miles added even though i signed up three weeks ago p.s. i tried to call and it didnt work, but than i posted the messaga on my online account and it worked

why cant i figure out how to emal them?! i have other chase cards registered online but i cant seem to figure out how to register my saphire cards??

@josh s:
Enjoy!

@kivabb:
Hyatt and Continental and both great options. There’s no clear-cut answer I can give without knowing your exact travel plans and redemption uses.

@Shaytmg:
@yossi:
Use the miles well!

@dumb ?:
When did you get the card?

Sorry, I’m confused. How do I get the 50,000 points just for sighning on? I don’t have a Chase bank account. I understand that I will get another 50,000 points when I spend $3,000.

Hi Dan and Everyone,
Applied for the card and got denied.. Called in Recon a few times and got approved! Thanks a mill for all the info!

I got the card and welcome this Saturday and do not see the 50k bonus points offer anywhere mentioned… Is that normal? Am I automatically enrolled in the 50k bonus miles (the initial 50k), or do I need to do something to get this bonus?
I’m asking cuz I wanna go ahead and send the SM regarding the “additional” 50k points..

Thanks in advance

@Avi:
Create an online account at Chase.com to send secure messages.

@Anshel:
Congrats! The Chase Reconsideration folks are the best in the industry for getting denials approved!

That is normal. As long as you applied from my link for the card you will be getting the 50,000 points for spending $3,000.
Now you can send an SM to them asking for another 50,000 points with the offer code in the post.

Good luck and keep us posted!

a few weeks ago
already made my charges 😉

@dumb ?:
The card should automatically populate in your Chase online account.
If it’s not there may have to call Chase to get it put there.

I alternate openning accounts in my husband’s name/ss and mine. In either case I get a second card for the other.

Thanks Dan! sorry for bothering,, just a quick question..
When is best to send the Secure Message? is it before or activating the card? (its already on my online account since last week just not activated)

Thanks!

This just worked for me! They gave the 50,000 points instantly!
Thanks Dan! You’re the best!!

I sent a mssage on Fri asking them to match the offer for 80,000 which they did, then yesterday i asked them to adjust it again to 100,000 and they did it again!

Hi dan, if I will apply today can I send sm today or need to wait until the cc show on my account? Thank you

@Anshel:
As soon as you see it online!

@Yehuda:
@Ely:
Well done!

@chavi:
You will have to wait a couple days for the card to show up in your account.

Thanks for the tip.

Just got a message that I will get the extra 50,000 (in addition to the 50k for spending 3k)

Off topic: not sure I ever thanked you for the free trip to Vegas, so yeah, thanks a bunch! 🙂

Just got the extra 50,000 points within 5 minutes.
Thanks

Hi Dan,
I just recieved an extra 2,500 points on top of the extra 50,000.Do u know why?
Thanks

dan

what is a number we can call to get the 50k extra points added?

I GOT THE SAPHIRE CARD WHEN YOU ORIGINALLY POSTED ON 5/18 IF I SEND THE MESSAGE NOW FOR THE 100K WILL IT STILL WORK?

@Yehuda (another one):
Congrats and your welcome! That Vegas trip was incredible-and now you have more than enough miles to do another!

@Ray:
Wow, Chase really is good!

@Ray:
Nope, enjoy!

@Jack:
There is none.

@rayman:
Sure!

who u send the message to what do u right??

can i apply for the hayat card as well

is it possible to transfer shapahire point to someone else priprity acount

just did it took them under 5 minutes to post the 50k thank you very much dan

I got the 100,000 points for me and my husband after sending the secure message from each of our accounts! I never even got an email reply, they just simply credited each account for the additional 50,000 points!!

are they approving on the spot? cause i got the 7 day wait for a response?

JUST GOT 75K EXTRA POINTS IN ONE MINUTE WITH THEIR SITE
TY

IJ,

You got the additional 50k + 75k? or you got just 75k instead of 50k?

how did you do it? what did u say?

was it through their SM?

How do I send the secure message asking them to match the 100k offer? Can I simply just call and ask?

way to go Dan! I think a question that many people have is the terms seems to say that you aren’t eligible for these offers if you already have that card. How do we get around that?
Thanks

I got approved. How do I create an account with out the card? I don’t have a account Number.
Thanks

hi Dan.
could u explain to me how to do the following “send a secure message from your online Chase account asking them to match offer S6V for 100,000 points”
do you just ask them to “match offer s6v” or do you have to mention something elso too? and what is offer s6v?
thanx!

Hi Dan!

I already have a non-preferred Chase card. Would this offer work if I upgrade the card to a preferred one? Thanks~!

@mendel:
Try that again in English please?

@rayman:
@sara:
Congrats!

@shach:
Don’t sweat it!
Even if they deny you just give them a call!

@IJ:
Nice!

@Mordy:
When you’re signed into your Chase account just locate the secure message center on the left and send a message!

@jeff:
We won’t know until someone tries it and lets us know.

@Chaim:
You have no other Chase accounts? You may need to wait until the card comes.
You can call Chase to get the card overnighted to you for free.

Hi Dan and everyone, Sent them a secure message and got the additional 50k points within the hour.. Thanks a mill!!

Any way to get some more?? Lol..

THANKS DAN THANKS DAN AND AGAIN THANKS DAN!!

Just send them an SM, got the extra 50,000 points!

Thank you Dan!

SM worked for me, got the 50,000. TY!

I can send it thru my checking account although no credit card is listed there? Thanks

@Anshel:
@jody:
@Danny boy:
Your welcome!

@Chaim:
The credit card will show up there under your checking account by itself within a couple days.

If I don’t have another chase account checking or credit card, can i still get the extra 50,000 miles by asking them to match the s6v promotion? If so, how do i phrase the secured message or ask for it over the phone?

Thanks,

Chaim

@Chaim:
Yes, just wait until you get the card and setup your account online to send a secure message.
I’m not going to write the message for you, sorry!

k thanks! all i do i ask them to match the other offer and they should say yes? never done this before and want to make sure i dont mess up…

thanks!!

chaim

Dan, you said, create an online account to send an sm. Can I do this before I recieve the card? I don’t have a Chase bank account. Can I still ask for the 50,000 points just for signing on? Also, I was approved on the spot. However, they said I have to wait a few wks to get the card and they were unable to expedite or give me the account number over the phone. When I inquired about the 50,000 additional miles just for signing up with them, I was told it’s only given after I spend three thousand within ninety days. Could
you please clarify the above?
Thanks

thanks dan

I sent a message on Fri asking them to match the offer for 80,000 which they did, then yesterday i asked them to adjust it again to 100,000 and they did it again!

Sent SM, and received point shortly thereafter. Thanks!

Hey Dan,
Thanks for the advice on the card. I just applied and was instantly approved. I tried to create an acct but did not have a current account with Chase so I took your advice and called them asking them to overnight which they are doing. I think I made a mistake though, because I asked them to match for the 100,000 and the women said that is something thats by promotion only. So will this cause me problems if I now email them? Thanks for your help.

@shoshana: no it shouldn’t as probably nothing was noted on the acct

Yippy. Just sent 2 SMs for myself and wife and got 50K x 2 within minutes! Thanks Dan!

Dan,

Based on the information you provided. If I for example have a chase freedom card with 60k points and now sign up for a sapphire card I can transfer freedom points to the sapphire card which then can transfer to continental 1:1 miles is this correct?

thanks dan as always!
got the extra 50k on both cards!!

got my extra 50K!!!

I am about to sign up for the card however I want to know exactly what I am supposed to do in order to get the extra 50,000 points? Thanks

ELI, THERES A 174 OTHER COMMENTS, FOR GOODNESS GRACIOUS, SCROLL UP!!!!!!!!!!!

Dan
How do I use the Sappfire Miles for Hyatt Hotels?
Do I need to first open an account on the Hyatt website ?

Dan, Your recommended 30 day wait between chase apps are determined by when the app was submitted or when finally approved? Thanks for all your continuous help.

Was rejected for additional 50K points. Wanted invitation number. I guess I’m the first 🙁

@Ariel:
Correct.

@Meir:
Yes, open an account there first.

@Josh:
Submitted.

@Joe:
Yup, looks like you are the first. I would try again…

Sent in from my Mom’s account, and was told I would need to resubmit a request after spending $3000.

joe
did you call them or send them a sm

Rejected again. I think they see the previous emails because the same rep quoted a paragraph straight from the first email.

SM, should i call?

rejected too. last night they responded that they cant give me the 100k because my rewards acct is not yet active and i should try again once its active. tried again today and got rejected.

Seems like all the sudden people are getting rejected tonight.
Probably best to hold off asking until the morning when another rep is there…

my son was also rejected tonight. I told him to try to call and be very sad. I gave him the phone number from the email and also the one that Joe had attached to his email. will let you know that results. thanks

Just got denied seven hours after sending SM. Boo hoo.

Was denied this afternoon as well :(…………..sent them another letter in dissatisfaction, we’ll c how they respond. So not cool. This would’ve been really nice to get. Nu NU, u win some, and u lose some.

I also got rejected. I was wondering if anyone had any luck when calling.

Dan,

I want to send them a SM but I want it to sound correct. Can you give a very brief description of promotion code S6V so that I can explain it to them correctly.

@outoftowner:

There is no “proper description of S6V. It’s just targeted offer code (which gives 100k for $3,000 spend).

In all likelihood, you’ll get shot down, (no one, to my knowledge has been approved since about late afternoon yesterday) but just mention the code, that it offered 100k for $3000 spend, and cross your fingers. Good luck.

Both my wife and I got rejected.
Sent another SM asking them to reconsider.

they responded to my request,
“I kindly
request you to reply to this email with the offer code and
the invitation number”
does anyone have one?

is there a fuel surcharge when booking a miles ticket on continental

so has anyone got the match since yesterday maybe chase is catching on!

requested the extra miles last night and was rejected. resent the request this morning and was rejected.

@partys over????:
Looks like they closed this up last night.
Congrats to those who got in on it, but even for those who didn’t, 50K is still a serious chunk of miles!

Dan
Do you think if i call them up i can be lucky and get them?

when is this deal over?

I sent an sm and, like everyone else, was asked to provide an invitation number. I called and the representative said she would submit the request to the research dept and I should hear by mail in 7-10 bus days. She said it was likely to get approved. I’m not sure if that is significant.

Hi Dan
I tried to get the additional 50000 points to my new chase saphire card and they responded that I need an offer code. Is there an offer code available for me to use?Thank you Dan for a great service. Yitzchok

Dan wrote “then send a secure message from your online Chase account asking them to match offer S6V for 100,000 points”. Does anybody know what S6V is?

Hi Dan,
I sent the SM for 50,000 additional points for the offer S6V, but they denied my request telling me that:
Thank you for your interest in the Chase Sapphire bonus
points offer.

The 100,000 bonus points offer was made through a small
direct mail test and is non-transferable. The Offer Code
and Invitation Number included in the mailing can only be

Dan, do I have to keep trying in sending more SM in order to get the 50K bonus points, or that is a worthless?

So can we say party over?

The party is more than over.
I Called a few days ago and was told that I would get the extra 50,000 points.
When I called back to check my account, the new rep said the old rep was wrong and I have no right to get the points!

dan
when does this promo end?

I saw a paragraph saying about earning 10 points for every trasnaction if I have Chase Freedom Card, Chase Checking Account,and a Sapphire Preferred Account. I tried to locate this information on Chase website but unable to find any more info on how this actually works. Just because I have 3 of them, I earn 10 points on every transaction my Chase Freedome Card is swiped? Just that easy? Can anyone please guide me on where I can find details on this?

@Dan Shouldn’t be this be updated as DEAD? (at least re: 2nd 50k)

Apparently this promo will not work if you already have a chase sapphire card (non-preferred), and they will not upgrade your card with any premium (50k or 100k points). Big disappointment.

dan, can i still try to call or email chase to get the additional 50k (total 100k) ?

Denied as well, I would agree to refer to this as dead

@Ari #210, I emailed them and was denied as well but was given 5,000 bonus points pretty much for asking nicely. Worth a shot

I sent them a secure message and was denied as well. I then spoke to them over the phone and was told they know there were codes leaked on the internet that people were giving to get the 100k offer and that now they implemented a policy of not extending that offer unless you were specifically targeted with an invitation. Basically they caught on and this deal is DEAD!

Wrote to Chase about getting the extra 50,000 points and was refused. The rep. said it was a solicited offer and I would have to provide an invitation number to be eligible for the extra 50,000. Sent another email begging to be considered so we’ll see.

@Richard S:
Looks like the 100K deal is dead unfortunately.
Still 50K Continental miles or Hyatt points is nothing to sneeze at!
They can be easily be worth over $1,000.

Is the link still working?

Dan,
Any idea how to get chase to allow me to do a balance transfer to the sapphire card? B/c on the sign up screen for the 50k offer it says that, balance transfers are included in qualifying purchases. But I just talked to chase and they said I can not do a balance transfer at this time.

any idea if you can apply for the chase card if you are unemployed, like homemaker. what do you put in for employer?

U can just write bmg..or anything it doesn’t matter so much who employer is. Mayb put down husbands employer cause its same household.

Any way to get the extra 50,000 points? Anyone have an invitation for that promotion? I applied for the 100,000 and now they are only giving me 50,000!!!

how do i get the 100K?
i will spend the 3K but i got 50K points.. i need 100K! any ideas Dan?!!! please!

@Josh</a
lucky you!

Mazel Tov to you! Asach Nachas!
I got approved for the sapphire after calling the reconsideration department.
I sent a message to them about the other 50000. They didn’t want to honor it. They forwarded it to the manager. Still not. I sent a new message. Trying. Think it’s still gonna work?

originally chase said i applied for and/or had too many cc’s and didnt approve me for sapphire since i had applied for and was approved for chase BA and chase continental. today i closed the BA to get refunded the $95 fee (w/in 60days) and called the reconsideration and they agreed to approve the sapphire (the cs thought when i closed ba i gave up my credit line i had on it, but i had actually moved it to the other cards so…)

Dan,

I just signed up for the Sapphire card and got approved. I also have the Freedom card for a while. They are telling me I cant transfer my Freedom points to the Sapphire account. Any suggestions on how I can get this transfer to happen?

@DL_NY:
It’s easy to do.
Just logon to Chase, click on ultimate rewards, then manage account and combine points.

Has anyone who recevied the bonus 50K points on the Sapphire Card also received the additional 50K points after reaching the spending threshold of $3K?

How long does it usually take to show up?

Thansk.

@Shaytmg:
yes, 103,000 in total. about 4 weeks later

this is the response i got after i asked for the additional 50k points with this code S6V …

“Thank you for your interest in the Chase Sapphire bonus

This is outdated there is no 50k offer
