In the past, to request a LoungeClub membership, you could go to this site, enter the code CHASEINK, and complete the form:
https://www.loungeprogramenroll.com/inkcard/

But, as of April 30, 2015 this message appears:
We are no longer accepting new LOUNGE CLUB enrollments from Ink from Chase Cardmembers. If you are currently enrolled you may continue to use your membership until the expiration date printed on your LOUNGE CLUB card. If you have any questions please call the phone number on the back of your Ink from Chase business card.

The same is true for Fairmont cardholders.
"We are no longer accepting new LOUNGE CLUB enrollments from Fairmont from Chase Cardmembers." In the past, to request a LoungeClub membership, you could go to this site, enter the code FAIRMONT, and complete the form: https://www.loungeprogramenroll.com/fairmont/

I've seen this question posted here and I've seen 2 opposite answers. So, I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this or new info...

I have a newly issued LoungeClub from my Ritz Carlton CC to expire Jan 2017. I cancelled my Ritz Carlton card. Anyone have experience with this and their Lounge Club card continuing to grand access?

Thanks!

I too canceled my Ritz account a few months ago, and a new Lounge Club card arrived a week or so ago for a new year of membership.

Not sure if you would be able to use the lounges fee-free since your Ritz account is closed. Even if you are allowed into the lounges, you possibly could end up being charged at some later point for any lounge visits you had.

You would receive a statement from Chase for a transaction on your closed credit card account. Closing a credit card does not void valid charges.

I had a similar experience with my Palladium card (few years ago). I received a new Lounge Club card with 1 year until expiration. I cancelled my Palladium card, and then enjoyed free Lounge Club access until the expiration was up. I figured that Chase already paid for 1 year of Lounge Club access and I enjoyed that benefit. Did not get any bills from Chase or Lounge Club.

Thanks all for the input. Will give it a try on my next trip next week!

Keep us updated! Btw it's too bad Chase Ink no longer includes Lounge Club passes. I enjoyed that feature.

My hubby will be flying alone for a trip. I have lounge club (from Chase Ink) and have never used it. I know their policy is my guest can't use my card without my presence. But I wonder how strictly the rule is enforced. Anyone has some experience to share? Thanks!

By accident last year I had my wife's Priority Lounge Club card and not mine with me and the lounge agent just ran the card without questioning me. Do not know if this would always work.

I was at an Alaska lounge last month, and the woman at the desk didn't even check to see if I had a ticket. Just swiped the card and welcomed me in.

It's hit or miss, but taking a shot is free.

I know this has been asked before but hoping for some current data points. My chase Ink Lounge Club card expires the end of this month and I have an opportunity to use it for the first time! But I cancelled my Ink card last June. Is my Lounge Club card still good?

Yes, it is.

I cancelled my Ink Plus last May. I used my lounge card in Aug 2015 and my brother used my lounge card in Feb 2016.

Yes. I called the Lounge Club number and just asked (in my case, I didn't receive my new card this year). He said you can't use a lounge if you don't have your card in hand because they're not synced that way. He said I could pay to use it and then reimbursed from Chase later. But it will be easier for me to use my AE Priority Pass at LAX next week at the Virgin Loft.

But if I pay with my RC Chase for my guest, then I think I can get that refunded to me as a travel expense under the $300 allocation.
