** On or before May 30th, 2018** - ALL Chase Marriott cardholders that held the card as of March 15th, 2018, will receive:
  • 1 Night Stay Certificate for a Category 1-5 Marriott Hotel
  • 15 Night Stay Credit towards elite status

** CHASE HAS CLOSED ACCOUNTS AS OF MARCH 15, 2018 **

By now you should have been notified that your Marriott Rewards® Visa® Credit Card will be closing on March 15, 2018. Here's what you need to know:

• CONTINUE EARNING.
You will still be able to continue to use your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card and earn points on eligible purchases through March 14, 2018. After that date, you will no longer be able to make purchases or earn points on your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card.

• USE YOUR POINTS.
This does not impact your Marriott Rewards account. You will still be able to access and use any points and benefits that you have earned.

If you have paid an annual fee for your card any time between April 2017 and December 2017, Chase Canada has said that they will give you a prorated rebate of the fee back as a statement credit on your account.


If, however, your annual renewal fee is due between January 2018 and March 2018, you will NOT have to pay it. You may continue to use your card until March 15, 2018

As a cardholder, you will still receive your 15 Elite Night Credits and Free Night Certificate, regardless of your anniversary date. They will be deposited into your Marriott Rewards account after March 14, 2018.


Existing Chase Marriott Visa cardholders will be given a special signup to the Amex SPG CC for 25,000 welcome points and $120/yr annual fee.


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

Information below is left here for reference only, so that others who applied before the deadline can refer to the info.

If you find a working application link buried in this thread and apply through it don't be surprised if you do not get the advertised welcome bonuses.

Tips:
  • Go to marriott.com and apply for a Marriott Rewards account first, and have the member/account number ready during application. If you did NOT do this then Chase will create an account for you - look for the numbers on the lower left of your new Visa card, it may be displayed there.
  • Spend at least $1 on your new card by the 9th of the month, so that the txn posts by the 11th onto your online account at Chase (https://online.chasecanada.ca).
  • Seemingly, all Canadian Chase Marriott Visa accounts cycle on the 11th of the month. Points are posted by Chase to Marriott.com and the 50K points will appear by the 18th or 19th of the month.
  • You will see the points posted on page 3 of your paper statement when it arrives in the postal mail. Chase does not provide Canadians with an online PDF statement, only transactions. If by the 19th you don't see points posted, double-check the Marriott Rewards number on your paper statement to ensure it matches your true account number, in case Chase messed up and created a new MR account on your behalf.
  • When setting up payment for the card at online banking, look for "MARRIOTT VISA" as the card name.
  • If using this card outside of Canada, ensure you prime the PIN onto the card at a CHIP/PIN terminal while IN Canada, before you leave for your trip. You cannot prime the card while in Europe (for eg.)
  • YMMV, but if you decide to cancel this card, it is advisable to do it WELL before the anniversary date, as Chase may not pro-rate a refund.
  • If you plan to use this card outside of Canada (no FX fees), you should call Chase to let them know, so your card won't get locked. I've never called when using it on extended travel in the US, but for sure I would call and let them know if I was going to use it elsewhere (Europe, Asia, Antarctica).
  • If you log out of MARRIOTT.COM and notice an 80,000 point offer, it is a USA-only offer.
  • You can find List of Marriott Hotels and their Categories via below searches

With your marriott cards, were the automatic approvals? or did you get a "you will receive a response in the mail"?

I'm really not sure why we were able to churn. I've never spoken to an agent regarding any four of our applications - all online. I called once after my initial 30k hit to ask for the add't 20k and that's it. I only had a gap of about 6-8 weeks between cards (Aug 2013 - early Oct 2013) and he had a gap of Aug 2013 to Feb 2014.
So, to set me straight, can you confirm that you did this:

You: Aug/Sept 2012 online for 30K, argued for 50K
Hub: Aug/Sept 2012 online for 50K off the bat
-----
You: Oct 2013, online for 50K
Hub: Feb 2014, online for 50K

Man, you got lucky, when I and so many others got yanked out by Chase, citing "first time ever" cardholders only, please!

Close - it was like this.

Me: online Aug/Sept 2012 - 30 K, argued for 50k
Hub: online Sept/Oct 2012 - 50k

Me: online Oct 2013: 30k
Hub: online Feb 2014: 30k

The first three were all instant approvals. The Feb 2014 was actually a 'wait 10 days' message. He received a decline letter in the mail, and then 1.5 weeks later, the card?! I can't even begin to apply logic to this.

To clarify any other questions
-never been charged the annual fee.
-Both received the cat 4 cert in 2012.
-I received the cat 5 renewal night before I cancelled, he did not.
-Neither of us received the cat 4 cert in 2013/2014.
-Always received the 15 elite nights and it looks like I got the anniversary renewal nights

Hmm, so basically if I follow your path, I should try for the 30K promo and $0 FYF + elite nights. Which means, no e-certificate and 20K less than the 'big' prize.

Need to weigh the options on this, as I'm not sure if I want to burn another credit pull.

Thanks for sharing your info again.

Would just like to say that my Marriott points hasn't posted yet even though my first statement was on the 11th, and I had a few transactions in the $5-20 range on it. I guess I need to contact Chase for my points.

The free night did post when I activated the card however.

Statement closes on 11th, points post to Marriott on the 18th. For everybody.

Wait until the 19th first, and go from there.

SO basically it sounds like if you got the 30K offer before, you can go for the 50K offer now (and vice versa). Did I summarize the thread correctly? Mom got 30K before and just got a signup offer for 50K. They closed the card on 20 Oct 2013 so it's been exactly 6 months!

Lot of folks get offers but only few reported getting bonuses the second time. Let us know how your mom's apps turn out.

Does anyone have a 50K bonus link that is still valid? I wanted to have MamaTwick sign up for the card, but missed the April 15 deadline...
