I applied for the Continental OnePass Card (50k bonus points w/first purchase) in October. Since I have some United miles, I see the 60k offer. However, in the terms it clearly states “United MileagePlus Explorer cardmembers will only receive one 50,000 bonus miles award if they apply for both the United Explorer Card and the Continental OnePass Plus Card after 7/19/2011. ” I’m sure the 60k offer is showing up because the site cannot detect that I already have the Continenal card. I would try applying but I just did a big app-o-rama, so will probably hold off till next summer.
Will be curious to hear what people’s outcomes are who are in a similar situation.
