My Card was approved yesterday and it was sent by Rush mail today. I called the CSR and spoke about the offer. She didn't confirm straightaway about the $50 credit, but said she'd added a note regarding the same. Lets see how this works out.

I have called United to receive this offer on my new account, and used Chase's SM to do the same for my wife. Will let you all know, we just got these cards 2 weeks ago

I believe I recently saw mommypoints posting that one of her friends got the 65K United offer with 55K after the first spend. I think I am going to try to see if I can get the additional 5K miles (worth at least $100 to me) rather than the extra $50 credit.

For those of you wondering, about trying to get the $50 matched. I've sent a secured message to Chase earlier today using Million Mile Secrets' template and got a reply six hours later saying they would honor it and credit $50 statement to my next billing cycle.

So how do I get the deal advertised by the OP? When I click on it, it gives me the generic 40K bonus

This card is great, signed up for it a few months ago. Unfortunately missed out on the $50 statement credit but with no spending requirements made this card a good one to grab for the easy 50k miles

I have had a continental one pass card since 2010. Just called chase and the csr confirmed that if I cancel my current card and apply for the new offer I would receive the bonus miles etc. Not sure if it's because my original card was a continental vs a united one.

I just tried it again to make sure it was still working and it is. What I did was use the 2nd link posted, signed in, closed out of that window since it's only the 60k offer (no $50), then clicked the link in the OP. There's probably a less complicated way to do it, but I couldn't find another way.
