Are you implying that the 50k bonus points from your Chase SWA CC posted as TQPs? Bonus points and points from regular CC spending do NOT count as TQPs The only TQPs from CCs are those 1,500 TQPs are posted as bonus for every $10k spent on a premier card up to 15,000 such TQPs per card per calendar year.
