The same happened to me yesterday. I escalated the call to a supervisor and she was crystal clear to me. Chase changed recently their policy regarding this card and they ate now counting the last "premium" received irrespective of whether it is a sign-up bonus or spending bonus. So the 25,000 avios are being counted for the 24 months.
I pushed back but no way to change it. I complained not to be informed, etc. No way. The worst thing is that I'd have to wait until late May and probably be denied then due to the 5/24 rule...
Just another data point that Chase has gotten stricter on this card.
Also I used a different FFN and address but Chase systems must have been strengthened as I was automatically declined with no hard pull.
