This morning when I called, first CSR told me the card was sent, but via regular mail. Then second CSR said no card was sent because I didn't go in to a branch with two forms of ID. If I don't do that, they will close my account. Now you know how frustrated I was, and I'm actually a JPM stock holder, both common and preferred shares.

I gave in and went to a branch, put the same exact CSR on the phone and she demanded the branch to fax in my ID, but the CSR's fax never worked (it keeps ringing but no answers). The branch manager argued a few minutes with the CSR and she finally said they will overnight the card to me. (I was like, what's the big deal.) We'll see. I'm not holding my breath...

don't worry if it is via regular mail. CHASE & CITI mails out cards real fast. but BOA takes for ever if it is via regular mail. mine took over a month.

trying for business card and all I get is the 30k offer. suggestions???

Can only recall seeing a reference to a 50k biz card one time from a single poster who was targeted for it. Never heard of anyone actually getting it.

The trick doesn't work for the business card.

I can say one thing for sure that the 50K+10K offer for the business card indeed exists, I got the offer TWICE in the last one month.
And no, I won't share the info.

If you input a very obvious/straightforward web address( hint: no "UA Mileage"), you will be fowarded to the application web that requires to input PERSONAL invitation code.

The reason I won't share the info is when I did input my invitation code, my personal info was already populated on the application page, so they are truly target offer.

This was sent to me (new card holder) seems like a new offer but I cant be sure.

I tried searching, but ...

I got the UA Club card in May 2012. It is up for annual fee in a couple of months and I am not going to renew. I want to apply for the explorer card now that I figured out how to get the 55k offer to appear, but the T&Cs have me concerned:


This bonus offer is valid only for first-time United MileagePlus Visa cardmembers with new accounts. Previous and existing United MileagePlus Visa cardmembers/accounts are not eligible for this bonus offer. Bonus miles do not count towards Premier® status.
Technically they are different products and I never received UA miles, but I would rather have some evidence that people have had both products.

My other question is .. do I cancel the Club card before applying, or does it even matter?

You posted this in the US Airline card thread by mistake so I moved it over here. As you can see this is a current offer for most folks.

No need to cancel the Club card. Apply & if you have to call the recon. line you can offer to have it closed then. Bargaining chip, ya? :)

Fresh miles and change the URL for the 35k offer. Replace "30" with "50" in the URL.

Well, I bit the bullet

Problem with chase is that they will give me the card but not the bonus.

They don't auto deny you like CITI

Edit: called recon got approved for $13.5k, tried to confirm bonus, lady said that is I've never gotten miles I should get them. Will reconfirm after I get the card.

FYI: I was able to pull the 50k offer AND the club card first year free.

I cleared cache & cookies
Logged into UA
Clicked on mileage plus earning
Clicked on credit card
Clicked on explorer
Sometimes it takes you to the chase info site, sometimes it directs you to the 30k offer
Once there I changed 30k to 50k

If you click club card once the 50k shows, it will be first year free
