The wife applied 2 weeks ago, got the card last week. She called the CSR and verified 80,000 after $1k spend.

I think the thread title needs to be changed because I got my latest IHG card and confirmed the same. Still a great card to get 80K pts on 1K spend and free annual night @ 49. Of course the devaluation is painful but...

I just booked three nights with ihg points. 75K points for a room that would have cost$690

Hi all.
Does anyone could tell me that if I apply PC card through this 80K link, can I get platinum club status? When? I find out that the old card is gold status instead of platinum. I think if I use this card to pay my auto insurance, $1K isn't a big problem. thank you.

Yes you get platinum after the first statement. If you need it sooner, might want to try Secure Message or call to rep.

spouse applied yesterday, further review.

called recon today, they confirmed some numbers did some adjusting and approved. spouses first CC^---other than AU.
(darned 'ole student loans )-- no deliquents, just that silly balance.

did not ask for bonus confirmation after having 15 minutes of drilling. think we will just wait for the card to arrive.

Great CSR , btwn. !! Chase is our favorite.

So does the platinum elite status show up within a day or so of the statement closing?

EDIT: Both platinum elite and the bonus points show up the day after my account statement closed.

I applied (and was approved) using the first link. Activated it automatically and did not hear about 80k bonus, and it was not emailed to me. Completed 1k spend today, should I reach out with a SM already or just assume it will post in the month after this stmt closes?

80K points should post a day or two after your next statement. If it doesn't, then you should contact them.

ycrimi

Sounds good. I try to minimize my contact with the golden goose unless its urgent

Latest data point. Applied on 01/28. Used the link on the first post and got one week review.

Called the re-consideration line and verified with the CSR 80k points after $1k spend in 90 days.

frudd38

I got the card early Jan with the 80k 1k spend confirmed by CSR. I have not met the 1k spend yet and it's been a week since the statement closed.

My status is still showing as Club. Do I need to meet the 1k spend to reach Platinum?

alohastephen

So if I got the old 60K version and closed the account over a year ago, is it possible to get the card again for the 80k sign up bonus?

I have the Chase PC churn status noted as "Maybe, 1 yr aft. Cancel"

I would add it to the next AOR
