Just applied for the 60K offer (did it after logging into my Mileage Plus accounted on united.com) and got "Decision Pending." I think I'll approved based on my credit history and my relatively light existing credit limit with Chase.
Is it worth calling the reconsideration line now? Or wait and see what answer I get in the mail, before I do anything else?

Sent in SM for 2 separate accounts. Got the $50 on one account within an hour. Got a "will get back to you within 5 days" on the other. YMMV.

Helped a friend apply for this today. Couldn't get the 60K offer using firefox or explorer--presumably because of the cookies in each.
Switched to chrome and up it popped, 60K. A quick screen shot and app is on its way.

Yup, good call. In my last post I forgot to mention that I was only getting the 40K offer, but then switched to another browser, logged into united.com using that, and then was able to get the offer.

Can anyone post a freestanding link for the 60K bonus? I have an existing MP Visa Signature card and so when I log on to my mielage plus account there is no promo to apply for the Explorer. I am also awaiting a response to an SM clarifying wheter or not I will be able to get the 50K on the new card and keep )(or not) my existing one.
Thanks in advance...

EDIT: I posted this process earlier, 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.

the link shows 40k only. how do i get the 60k bonus? and can someone tell me if i can use it for UNITED flights only and how many domestic flights is 60k?
is it good like the ADVANTAGE MILES ?
thanks
update
I just opened (enrolled) a united mileage account online and clicked on the card link, it says 50k bonus miles after first purchase, and if you spend $25k in a year, i get 10k bonus miles on top of that.
How do you guys get 60k bonus miles after first purchase?
i don't spend $25k a year to get the 10k additional miles.
thanks

Regarding my SM for the $50 credit, Chase said they'd get back to me in 3-5 days. Curse all of you who got the credit right away!

Do some homework on your own by reading up the readily available information - far better than asking many questions that you can find answers simply by reading up on United website.

Who do we send an SM to (i.e. which department)? The rewards area says their not the ones responsible.
