I never got any of the emails, and used to get lots of stuff in snail mail for the older UA cards, but not lately. On the other hand, my SO has been getting tons, finally applied and got the select on the spot.
On the other hand, when I go to the Web site (thatsaplus.com), the standard 30,000 offer applies for the select card (30K miles, $50 discount cert. but no fee waiver). But when I log in to get my special offer, I get the 50K miles, discount cert, first year fee waiver and up to 5,000 EQM/year, but not the recurring 5,000 bonus every year.
