The rates seem to be the same with the two codes. If that's the reason for the missing credit, that's the most evil trick I've seen with credit card benefits, worse than the fact that the need for a specific code isn't even mentioned in the T&C given in the Chase app. Especially frustrating given that I don't have many chances to earn the credit since the discount I get through my employer usually gives a rate that saves me more than $50.
Same issue for Avis. Mentioned it on another thread several weeks ago. I manually added another zero at the end to match what was in the terms. Still waiting for TB funds to be deposited.

Worse than useless since it's actually cost me $ so far. Paid $10 more compared to just booking direct. As I mentioned on the other thread,
I won't even consider booking through cars.united.com again until these TB funds are deposited, and even then I'll probably think twice.
