Chase Ultimate Rewards - Chase Southwest Personal Premier and Plus

Long time time listener...first time caller:

I have a question I've searched for and although I've seen comments on similar issues in other threads I haven't seen this question asked:

Last August (2011) I applied for a Chase Southwest Personal Premier card and got approved with no issues. .The bonus on this card was 50,000 after first purchase.

As I recently started a job where I get to use my own credit card for travel (vs a company supplied card) I wanted to keep my charges separate for easy expense reimbursement purposes. .So, I applied for the Chase Southwest Personal Plus card. .The bonus is 50,000 after 1,000 in 3 months. .

It wasn't till after I applied that I realized that there is some fine print that says something along the lines of if you've received similar offers on Chase Southwest Personal before you're not eligible for the bonus. .As the spend requirements are different do you think I'm fine?

I would have opened the business card had I know this before, but I was a bit skeptical on the personal vs business card liability protection so I erred on the side of caution. .

I'm only 53,000 from a CP so I'm hoping I get the bonus...


Thanks in advance,
Scott


.

Was it approved? Just call in to confirm bonus.

Yes it was approved for a shockingly large credit line. What number would I call? The reconsideration line number I've seen posted or the number on back of the CC?

I thought of calling earlier but didn't want to ruin the deal for myself by having their system not catch it, and then a CSR catching it and voiding it.

Thanks,
Scott

I confirm bonus when activating card. You could call number on back of card (my first recommendation) or send secure message.

I understand flying below radar but I don't think you have much to worry about with a simple call asking to verify how much you need to spend to get a sign up bonus...and then confirming what that bonus amounts to.

Thanks! I got the card in the mail today and will give it a shot and report back.

Called them and we're good to go! Confirmed bonus and spend requirements.

Thanks
