Thanks for the heads-up on this. I'm not a United guy but, what the heck! I called United, got a Mileage Plus number. I then went online to get the card and found the 1st year is $60 and the mileage is 30K. I then phoned United, got a rep, transferred to Chase, took app on the phone. He verified 1st year fee of $60 is waived, mileage is 50K.
I'm waiting for the mail to arrive to see if it works. This is fun!
