I called the Chase app status number (800-432-3117) and was told that i would recieve a reply on my application in 2 weeks. This sounds badish. Should I proactively call the reconsideration line and ask to have credit lines moved or just sit on my hands?

I'd call now. Otherwise you'll probably get a denial letter w/reason in the mail and have to call to try to fix it anyway. Might as well be proactive, some reps are more helpful than others.

Called, had a little chat, approved. Now just have to figure how to do the spend and the kids are going to DisneyLand. Thanks, FT.

I applied for the 50K offer and was approved, then I read this thread and appliead again ( 3 minutes later) for the 65K card with the $50 statement credit.

I got a wait for approval the 2nd card but today got approval emails for 2 diffferent account #'s

I intend on asking about the signup bonus when I activate both cards, I wonder if I could end up with 100K in first use bonuses

opened my account in Feb.

Yes . People have gotten 2 cards of the same type ,both accidentally and intentionally .

If you are lucky enough to get 2 of the same card you might get 2 UA accounts that you will have to merge , YMMV but you can always say how you wound up with 2 by accident cards if challenged , so I would try for double dip.

After getting points posted you might want to cancel one 90 days later ,and give the CL to your
Next Chase application

Lucky you :cool:

I filled out both apps with the same united number so we'll see if they create me a new account.


I guess I don't have anything to lose unless they deny me the bonus on both cards which I doubt will happen as I haven't had a United card since the merger, last one was probably 2 years ago

When you say 55 K I assume you mean with AU . Correct ? Bravo !

Thanks allanfan..let me check with chase..

Wish they had the same offer on a business credit card. All I see is the regular 40K miles offer and no annual fee for 1st year.

So at this point I'm banking on them not enforcing this, although I'm fairly sure I'll get the bonus based on the feedback I got from 2 employees at Chase(got the 50k confirmed both when I called the reconsideration line and when I called to activate the card). I'll let y'all know when I see the miles post or find anything out.

It does sound like they are starting to crack down on this offer though based on some recent posts...

Hey just wanted to update y'all that my 50k bonus miles just posted! I might've slipped through the cracks so i still call it a YMMV situation but it worked for me - now to book hawaii flights!! I also think i'll try to get chase to match the 5k for adding my gf as a cardholder...
