Getting the Marriott Rewards Premiere Card Again
Some years ago I churned Marriott Rewards cards regularly, always receiving the points -- but not the free night certificate once they tightened up (before, you could churn and receive both). I focused on other credit card bonuses for about four years, then my wife and I recently applied for Marriott Rewards Premiere cards and received the 70,000-point bonuses, not the free night, as we expected. My question is, has anyone recently churned this card, and if so, how long did you wait between applications?
I know Chase ended the churn gravy train for the same card several years ago, but the fact you can get this card and receive the points -- but not the free night certificate again -- suggests Chase knows who has had this card before but allows those of us who have had it to be approved for the card receive the points again.
