no response

I applied for this card when I received the email about 2 weeks ago and I still havent gotten a response. So much for 7 to 10 days.

Is there a number I can call?

Received 30 K points when I applied. Called 2 days later, said I had gotten an offer for 40 K in the mail - recieved additional 10 K. Called again a week ago, said I had gotten a new offer for 50 K - and got another 10 K added to my account. Never hurts to call!

I think 50 K is as high as I can go. I have not seen any targeted offers higher than that, and I dont want to push my luck. Especially, considering I personally had not received any offers - I called the Chase and fibbed by saying I did. They did not check....

Thanks. Looks like an active link.

The 50,000 point offer is now open to the public and not just a targeted offer. I just wrote a post with a rundown of the card benefits for anyone interested.

Basically 50k points is $833 towards Wanna Get Away fares, so this is a pretty good deal IMO.

TPG, I know Rick was hinting at some deals coming down in July. IYO, are better days ahead? This card doesn't interest me even though for a WN flyer it has good value.

It's an excellent deal, I think, too. In addition to redeeming the points for SWA flights, there is an option to buy a multitude of gift cards and even international flights and hotels with the points by using the 100 points to $1 conversion. So if someone doesnt need that many points or does not fly SWA often, they could literally cash the points through buying these gift cards - I got a $50 gift card to Walmart for 5,000 points just to see if it works. It is not as good of a deal as using the points directly for the SWA flights at 100 points = $1.6 conversion, but nevertheless...

Theres more in the pipeline. The thing about these offers though is that they change every minute, so sometimes we are tipped off but many times they don't end up happening.

But I agree with Rick that there is more action to come.

I wonder if Chase will approve the great many of us who already picked up 3 Chase cards this year (CO 50K, BA 100K, Sapphire 50K). Thoughts?

If you have good credit, are a good Chase customer (pay on time, maybe have a checking account, etc) and wait 30 days from your last app, I'd say your odds are good. I met someone recently who had 6 co-branded Chase cards and he's debating going for a 7th!
