Was this "SM to Chase" to match technique advertised, or mentioned in the Wiki, I guess I wasn't aware this was mandatory?

I may be SOL now, but do you think threatening to cancel the card would persuade Chase to somehow match now?

Just looking for options now...
Lesson learned, however, nothing is stopping you from calling and seeing what retention offer they give you. Don't threaten them, just ask what kind of offer they can give you not to cancel the card. Also remember that to get the bonus again you have to wait 24 months from the time you applied for the card the first time.

A side note, if you do cancel the card, transfer your credit line to another chase card before you cancel your card this is a easy way to get approved for another chase card, all they have to do it moved your credit line around. Just remember to move your credit line BEFORE canceling your card.
