- 50k miles after $3000 spend within first 3 months
- 5k miles for adding an authorized user
- No annual fee first year
- No FTF
- Each calendar year, you are eligible to receive one 10,000-mile bonus after you reach $25,000 in net purchases on your Card.

The extra 5000 points come from adding an authorized user after you have been approved for the card.
Is there a business card? Yes, and Flyertalk has a thread devoted to the business card: United business card: 50k+10k united miles
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?See the wiki and related discussion in Applying for Chase Credit Cards- May 2015-Present

Is there anyway once the min spend is hit to get the points to reflect in the account quickly or do you just have to wait out the billing cycle?

Several years ago, I got the bonus for my Explorer card posted to my UA balance quickly by calling and having the billing date of my card moved up to the next day. The Chase rep didn't KNOW that would work, but it did. Still took a few days to make it over to United, though.

Hi all,
Tried searching for this answer but was unsuccessful, apologies if I missed it.
If you complete the $25K in calendar year spending but then cancel before the 10k bonus miles post, will you still get them?
Thanks

To be safe, you should at least wait until the statement closes after you hit $25K. They post when the statement closes after you hit the $25K, not at the end of a year.

1. The correct link for personal card is as follow:
https://www.theexplorercard.com/50kAFW
2. See here for TU's procedure:
https://www.transunion.com/personal-...justments.page
At the minimum, you must have an active report in order to fix issues.

I've been trying for about a year and a half to pick up a UA card with a 50k bonus. But no matter what I do, I can't seem to qualify for anything more than 30k. My flights with US are admittedly limited (probably less than a half dozen in the past 5 years), so I'm guessing I just may not be their target audience. Any tips on finding a 50k offer that will work? I need to do a personal card, as I'm pretty sure I'm maxed out on Chase business cards at the moment.

anyone know when the 1K statement credit hits? i was 1k at the beginning of the year, first got the card this march but don't recall getting the credit. prior FT threads from 2013 mentioned April, but I haven't been able to find anything.
the UA elite website says "Credit will be posted once a year, in the second calendar quarter. Limit one per member. Eligibility for credit is based on Premier status at time of posting."

I received a targeted offer for 50k and applied, but unfortunately, got a decision pending notice: "We'll let you know our decision in writing as soon as we can. If we approve your application, you'll receive your card in the mail in 7-10 business days."
I've heard that you're not supposed to call in for UR-earning cards, but what about co-branded cards like UA?
