Chase finally got round to sending me the replacement card they promised a month ago. It too is metal and weighs in at a hefty 12g (normal cards are 4g). Of course it did not scan at the first place I tried to use it here in Japan, but after 5 attempts and an ultra slow swipe it did go through.

It does work at the gas stations 100% though.

My wife has given up trying to use it, as she is too embarrassed by causing the inconvenience to the clerk (and people waiting behind her).
