Got shot down via SM trying to get the bump to 60K. Somewhat surprised as I applied less than 60 days ago. Is there a better department to SM than rewards?

Thank you for contacting Chase about the 60,000 bonus
offer.

It is never our intention to cause inconvenience to our
customers due to the different offers. The offer which
you received was the offer promoted at the time of your
application.

Further, it is the marketing team which decides and
designs such offers and promotes them for new customers
while the application processes. Keeping the volatility
of the markets in mind, different offers are made
available at different times. Therefore, as it is a non
transferable offer I am unable to add any additional
reward points to your account.

I appreciate your patience and understanding.

Thank you,

---------------------------------

Hello, I recently applied for my Ink Bold card. My sign
up bonus offer was for 50,000 points after spending $5,000
in the first 3 months. However, I am disappointed to see
a higher public offer for the same card which offers
60,000 points after the same spend requirement. Would it
be possible to get this better offer instead, or if that
is not possible, would it be possible get a courtesy
adjustment of 10,000 points?

Here is the link to the better public offer for 60,000
points:

That one was worth more than a couple hundred bucks.
Buy online, ship to your house. Bring to store with coupon, instant return/rebuy.

Denied matching too --

The 60,000 bonus points offer was made through a small
direct mail test and is non-transferable. The Offer Code
and Invitation Number included in the mailing can only be
applied to the recipient?s account. If you are not listed
as the addressee of the mailing, we will be unable to
apply the offer to your account. I understand you may be
disappointed and I am sincerely sorry for any confusion.
Please know that we will consider reviewing the terms of
other offers you receive in the future.

I was denied the bump to 60k points from 50k points. My card was opened in mid March 2012.

Also denied after SMing - was told it was because it was a targeted offer. How can they claim this when it appears that anyone can go to that site, apply, and get approved? No where on the application page does it ask for an invite code to be entered. ???

Can you get two chase ink bold cards if you have two businesses? I would imagine so, but?

Its surprising to hear so many denials for the bump. Maybe taking a printout of the page and attaching it would help.

My Chase Marriott and Chase United application pulls were merged into one pull when I applied for both on the same day.

Of course, if you do that, go into it knowing that you MUST MUST MUST call about the second application or it WILL be denied.

If you don't want to have to call, don't bother with the second app. (I say that because I knew I didn't want to have to call but I put in a second app anyhow, and was denied as expected.. didn't cost me a second pull thankfully but I do feel stupid for submitting that second application at all, considering I *knew* I wouldn't bother calling.)

Definitely a great deal but the $5k would be hard to complete for me. I would need more points to take on that risk....or just more hours convincing myself $5k wouldn't be thaaaaaaat hard. Right?
Truely a great offer. Thanks OP for helping us.
