** 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

  • 2017 Marriott Rewards Category/Tier Update: On March 7, 2017, 23% of our hotels and resorts will change category.

Very impressed - just got an e-mail notifying me of my free night and silver status, only a week after applying online. I haven't even received the card yet!

For people who called, what # do you call?
the Chase 1-888 530-2938 on https://www.marriottpremier.ca/

I have no status with Marriott now (was Gold then Silver then nothing), but figure it's worth asking for 50K

I just spoke with a Chase agent and he stated that they would honor the 50,000 points if I had a promotion code. Did anyone receive a promo code with their 50,000 point Marriott Chase credit card offer?

That's the number I called. They told me I would get 50K. I will let you know in 4-6 weeks if I ever get it. Got the free night in my account. Only thing I have left is a hope and a prayer that 50K actually shows up. Let's see.

Never applied for a chase card, both myself and my +1 did not get instantly approved.

Do they communicate by email or do they send you a letter or do they phone you to let you know of your application status?

EDIT: We both hold SPG AMEX, AEROGOLD and AMEX GOLD, all instantly approved.

It appears some of the people in the call center have no clue what is going on. The email in this post clearly states the 50K offer is valid until September 15th...

I called into Marriott rewards and they seemed happy to offer the 50K bonus and transferred me to Chase at 866-206-0601. It turns out that is the number for the US credit card application which gives everyone the 50K bonus.

So I tried calling Chase Canada again at 1-888-530-2938 and asked if I was eligible for the 50K offer. They also mentioned if you get the email you are eligible for the 50K bonus. I asked what happens if the email was lost and you never received it. They didn't know any way to really check whether you would get the 30K or 50K bonus. So they transferred me over to applications. Applications didn't know either and wanted to transfer back to Marriott Rewards where I started. Eventually this person suggested waiting another week just in case the email hasn't been sent yet.

It's unfortunate that nobody seems to know if you are eligible for the 50K bonus before applying. I would hate to miss out on the 50K bonus so it might make sense to wait a bit longer before applying to see what happens. It almost sounds like the 50K bonus might be a targeted offer for those with Platinum status or those who had the old Marriott Visa card.

I currently have the CIBC Aerogold Infinite, however have been thinking of replacing it since Aeroplan is becoming a joke. My annual spend is probably only about $20K/year. I'm thinking about switching to this card, but I'm still not convinced. I know nothing about the Marriott's reward system however I'm seeing some perks..

1 free night = I'm going to St. John's, and the drinking, smoking, foul mouthed in-laws become a lot to handle. The Courtyard by Marriott in St. John's goes for $229/night. so I'd save $229 right there.

I'm going to Europe in October. Hotel for three nights is $700 CAD, with the no forex fee, I can save $20.

As for the 30,000 It's not that much, if it was more I'd probably due it right away.

Will sit and think about this for a little bit.

The rep stated that if anyone received a mailing, there would be a promo code in the top right corner of the offer. I applied for the 30,000 points and was accepted immediately but they would have provided an additional 20,000 if there was a promo code.

There apparently is a promo code but when I asked the agent, he would not supply it.

Thanks for checking. Might as well apply for the 30K offer then.
