Hi all,
I can confirm if you were a previous cardholder and not a current cardholder, you will be eligible for the bonus miles if you apply (and subsequently are approved by Chase).
Kind regards,
Dilly

Just a data point here but I signed up for the card last Friday and logging on to my Chase.com account I now see the card posted.
If you're looking for your approval status and have a Chase login, check out the website.

I still haven't been able to work out if the dis-allowed existing cardholders are any Chase cardholders or only those hold BA branded loyalty cards?
What happens if you sign up but already hold a card that makes you ineligible for this promotion? Do they issue the new card, take your $75 fee and refuse to give you the miles?
It would certainly be nice to know up front rather than lose the miles or have a declined card show up on your credit report.

another data point, I signed up on the first day, and yesterday received a request for address confirmation and I need to send in a bill or something with name and address.
Strange, since I have other Chase cards, well the one MP visa. Anyway, be on the lookout for further requirements for the application process

applied for Chase cc. Help with ?--do BA offer extra bonus with miles purchase often?
I tried the search function and google, but couldn't find the answer.
Have applied for Chase credit card, but hesitant to buy the other 20,000 needed until I have been approved as 20,000 alone not good for much and my
further planned travels on BA may only be late next year and there is not much one can do with 20,000 orphaned BA miles. Wouldn't want to waste $400-500 in the interim.
Is there likely to be another 25% bonus offer on miles?
Do they frequently offer bonus miles for miles purchases around the holidays?

Not quite clear on this... Is reference to "previous" and "current" cardholder specifically the holder of a BA branded Chase card or is it of ANY Chase card? E.g. - If I currently have a Chase United Mileage Plus Signature Card am I still eligible for this Chase BA Card bonus offer??
TIA!

It applies specifically to previous or current Chase BA visa card.
You can have any other brands of Chase cards. You are eligible for each promotion only once (United Mileage, BA, etc)

Translation please?
[QUOTE=Vegas;12780446]A couple of examples re. taxes and fuel surcharges :
DFW - LHR return (May 09) MFU from WT+ to CW using 25k miles - Taxes, fees and surcharges = $624 per person.
DFW - LHR return (Sept 09) MFU from CW to F using 50k miles - Taxes, fees and surcharges = $659 per person.
I have been using the site for awhile now, but still confused. Could someone please translate "MFU from WT+ to CW" ?
Thanks
