The 100K offer with staggered spend is live again. (9/17/15)
Additional discussion can be found here: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/chase...-75k-100k.html
50K, 75K or 100K offer https://creditcards.chase.com/a1/ba/nonaep?CELL=6H8X
Public link on Chase.com
https://creditcards.chase.com/credit...H0&list=4,2,1&
50,000 Avios after $2000 in purchases within the first 3 months
25,000 Avios after an additional $8000 in purchases within the first year
25,000 Avios after an additional $10000 in purchases within the first year
(Thus, a total of $20000 spend for 100,000 Avios)
Annual fee $95 NOT waived
Card earns 1 Avios/$ on everyday spend
Warning: Avios do not work like other types of miles and points
The British Airways system is distance based, priced per segment, with very high fees and fuel surcharges possible, depending on the airline flown. In particular, redemptions for British Airways flights are often the worst value. Therefore, one of the most popular uses of points is for short-haul flights on partner airlines.
Make sure you understand the program thoroughly before you apply for this card, as whining may be considered off-topic. Most questions and advice have already been given within this thread.

I did call Chase to see if they were aware, but they said if the app isn't loading it's a problem on BA's side unfortunately. I have no idea where to call to see if the offer is still available through BA.

...and now the landing page is gone. I wonder if someone made a mistake and the official launch of a 100k offer is on the horizon...

I got the 50,000 offer based card a few days ago, sent a SM
and Chase matched it to the 100,000 offer without any problems.

Update - another data point
The card arrived and I activated it. No indication, of course, of any bonus.
So, I called them to see if there was a bonus attached. The CSR basicly read me back the rules and, since she saw I had had a card before, she was pretty sure I didn't qualify for the bonus. She did offer to send the request over to another department, and they would notify me officially in 7-10 days.
Doesn't look good.
My wife's card arrived, too (she got the "we're considering it" message and then the card showed up). I presume she's in the same boat.
So, if I get a negative response from them, I guess I'll just cancel and be done with it.

I mis-calculated and I was about twenty bucks short of the $2K for my first bill, so I guess I'll have to wait for the next cycle.
Anyhow, even if that's all I get, I'm thinking it was still worth it.

I got this one on December 2013. I had only spent 4K on it. it required 2K spend for the 50K miles as you all know, and I thought it was 5K for the extra 25K miles but it's 10K spent, so I put it in the drawer since I got the Citi 100k Offer which I just completed spent last week.
Now, I just started charging the Chase BA again, I'm up to 7K so far. Can wait to hit 10K for the extra 25K avios...

All cardholders contribute to $30K annual spend?
As the 2ndary cardholder, I am making most of the purchases to achieve $30K annual spend for the Travel Together certificate.
I assume all cardholder spending contributes to the $30K, but want to make sure .--$30K is not a small amount
Can anyone confirm based on their experiences?

Just a friendly reminder, you do understand the 2-4-1 cert requires you to travel on BA only, right? Therefore you will be subject to BA's hefty YQ charges as well as the very high LHR departure taxes.
The out of pocket cash is quite a large sum, so much so it is better to view the 2-4-1 cert being paying for coach tickets but travel in business / first cabin.

Further update
Wife's first bill arrived today. Made the $2K spend in one shot (paid my taxes). Got the 50K "first use bonus". ^
I mis-calculated and I was about twenty bucks short of the $2K for my first bill, so I guess I'll have to wait for the next cycle.
Anyhow, even if that's all I get, I'm thinking it was still worth it.

100k British Avios promotion not honored
Hi everyone,
I applied for the british airways card back in November 2013 to take advantage of the 100k avios offer. I got the first 50k upon spending of $2000. This month i finally exceeded the required $10000 spending limit and was expecting to get my additional 25k avios. I called chase but advised that my promotion was only for 50k avios. I spoke with a representative and told them that it was for 100k avios but didnt make any difference as they said the system shows only 50k. I also put an inqury with the sales dept but didnt get any results. I told them what the sysem shows is incorrect. Does anybody happen to have any screenshots of their application page with the offer showing 100k? I may be able to present those pics and get my 100k promotion honored. Thanks so much for your help.
