She also told me to keep checking back though, because Chase is always coming up with new offers.

I recently noticed several posts indicating others with the United card were getting the bonus miles, and the 60K offer was showing up on my United account. Since two of the terms for the offer seem to be contradicting (explained in my previous post), I called to get clarification of the terms. As a result of all that call, I applied for the card 2 days ago. I tried to get the card for my wife, but the offer does not show up for her. She doesnt even get the 40K offer. I've tried all the suggestions with various links, clearing cache, etc. She just cancelled her older United card this month.

From all I have read recently, if you can get the link to work, it appears there is a very good probability you will get the bonus.
