Anyone have any datapoints on people who have the $59 annual fee variant from when it gave two "Standard Awards" for roundtrips instead of 25,000 points? Wishing I had waited now, for the CP possibilities. The terms do say "first time SW card holders" - any chance of this working?

A lot of people have been asking here if anyone has gotten Premier bonuses after having a Plus in the past, but there haven't been many responses yet.

I got the old card in April 2009, canceled in July 2010, and got the new Premier card at the end of July 2011 and received the 50k points. I don't know if I got the bonus again because it's a different product or that I had waited long enough since my prior approval and cancellation. Others have also reported receiving the bonus after having had the old card in the past, but I'm not sure if there were any that applied for the new card while still having an active old card.

Do you still have it or did you cancel it previously?

I also just got Ink and Freedom about a month ago. As a matter of fact I closed my WN Plus biz card to get the Ink and the biz card is still on my online profile (showing closed). They refunded my $59 fee that had been paid a month earlier but I kept the 3K points for renewals.
CP is very tempting and I may just move the WN Premier cards up to next priority with Chase. I'm assuming my prior Plus cards won't stop the new bonus.
Here's an article on Plus vs Premier, the Companion Pass, and churning:

I had the same question as I have been looking for hard confirmation. I had one response saying I was good to go.

I could be wrong, but I think this offer may be around for a while again.
I have found there are now at least 4 working links for the 50k offer:
http://www.mychasecreditcards.com/southwest/2ffian
(from the Southwest In A Nutshell e-mail.. labeled a "limited time opportunity")
http://www.mychasecreditcards.com/southwest/2ffdyk
(from post #796, from the Southwest homepage.. right where the "Did You Know?" text pops up normally under the Travel Guide on the right column)
http://www.mychasecreditcards.com/so.../2ffproductbox
(currently found on the bottom of the Southwest homepage)
and it's the standard offer on Chase.com!
https://creditcards.chase.com/credit...edit-card.aspx
.. found a 5th link.

Question about statement timing
So my wife just got approved for the personal and business premier cards. We are hoping to take at trip on July 20 using her points (and a newly minted companion pass). She will receive the cards tomorrow or Monday. What is the earliest date I could expect the points in her account?
She is going to try to move up her statement date to as soon as possible when she activates, but I'm trying to gauge how long it will take for the statement to close and the points to be deposited in her account so that I'm not booking the flight 2 weeks before we take it.

If trip is 7/20, you should have plenty of time.
