Even then probably 6-8 weeks after then.
This doesnt prevent you from making a payment and working the card to meet the 30k annual requirement for the "redeme one get two" annual spent requirement which is based on a calender year. The year is based on the Jan/Dec calender. This essentially makes the 100k miles into 200k miles.

got approved for the B A card yesterday. I have been tinkering around on the BAEC website quite a bit, but cannot confirm one way or the other if my 100k BA miles can be used to fly in the domestic U.S. on Alaskaair (AS).
I know I can fly domestically with AA , but not sure about AS (Seattle-California ideally)
Anyone have a clue?, before I get yelled at for clogging up the thread!

Address/identity verification
Like several other posters, I received a letter asking for a copy of my SS card and govt ID/utility bills. Did people who supplied the requested information end up getting approved? I was surprised by this request since I have a long credit history (15+ years) at my current address.

I app'd on the 21st and got my E-mails from BA yesterday and called the number today to find out I was approved. When does the clock for the 3 months for 2k start? I was goign to pay 3 months of daycare, but I don't want to miss my date and lose the extra 50k.

yep. They said 8 records on me, and also that my balance/limit ratio was too high at 22% (i am working two 0% cards to earn interest). Anyway, i paid down a couple cards and am at 15% now. My credit age is over 10 years, so i'm fine there. Going to try and reapply again once my credit card statement hits and credit agencies are notified of balances.
Hopefully this deal sticks around for another week or so... we'll see. Anyone seen an expiration date?

I have seen a lot of people post that they got the statment about the "letter via US mail..." however I haven't seen any follow up. Does this mean I got turned down?

Thanks; I didn't know if there might be a non-financial reason for them to deny and wondered if people who had been asked for address verification had run into any other problems. Honestly, sending in a photocopy of various documents doesn't seem to be the most rigorous form of checking someone's identity, so I thought it might just be a stalling tactic or something...

Here's the scoop.
$75 annual fee
50,000 miles with first purchase
50,000 miles after $2k in spend within 3 months
1.25 miles per dollar
And the best benefit aside from the signup bonus: every year that you spend $30k on the card you get a certificate for a free companion award redemption.

My app has been approved as it showed up in my Chase account. I still awaiting for the card to arrive. Read the reward details w/i the account, but it says nothing about the annual fee; the 50K after 1st purchase; and 50K after spending $2K.
Where did you get this detail, link? Thanks.
If it has posted somewhere and I missed it, sorry.

My husband received his credit card. I did not. My problems:
I need to have them close one of my new credit cards by the date of the original application. They claim both are active, though I think only one is. I worked today to charge the final amount I needed for the final bonus for one card. Once the charges have posted, I will select a new billing date online so that I can pay it off. Then I will call and have them cancel. They must be the ones to do it in order for me to open a new card.
I have an impeccable credit rating, so this has nothing to do with that. It's simply a matter of too many new cards.
- 2 Chase cards opened in last 6 months. Their policy is to only allow one. This would be the third.
- Too many pulls on my credit card score by Chase and Citicard.

I was told my card would arrive in about a week to 10 days. Maldives, here we come. (or wherever.)
