I understand that card members have 60 days from the time the AF post to cancel their card and receive a refund. My question is: if I accept the 10K miles, can I just cancel the card once the miles post and as long as it's been less than 60 days since the AF posted, get both the refund and the miles? Would Chase claw back?
Cannot speak on the retention offer. However when there was a 6 months clause in the T&Cs, and card was canceled before that period, Chase indeed clawed back the UA bonus - happened to self and some friends.

So Chase definitely has the ability to claw back miles. Whether it would do that on the retention offer, we like to get some data point. May be you would do it for the team?
