update
I put in an app for this card for my husband with the 50K first use, $50 statement credit offer page used while logged into his UA account. I did not get card instantly approved with an annual income above $100K and a high credit score. Got the message they will consider and notify by mail. Chase has been taking 2-3 weeks on other cards I've applied for to get approvals.
Is there a phone number to call for talking to Chase to ask for an expedited consideration?

Data point: I applied to this card more than 2 but less than 3 months after applying to sapphire preferred. Got approved but not instantly, didn't have to call reconsideration. I also have freedom from chase and that's it.

You dont need to pay anyone to get your credit report - you are entitled to a free copy each year from each of the reporting agency.
On top of that, each time you apply a credit, you can call the reporting agency to get a copy if you know which agency the inquiry likely goes. You just need to tell it you suffer "adverse" action. No approval of a card is an adverse action.
It is a good practice to check one's credit report periodically to make sure if there is any discrepancy etc.

Posted on here previously, originally applied and received the Continental Card in 3rd/4th quarter of 2011. I received the bonus points (think it was 50,000). Applied for United Card for 65,000 points (50,000 bonus +10,000 after X amount of spend +5,000 for adding authorizer user +50 statement credit). I was not instantly approved, but called a couple days later. I was approved and card sent out to me. They transferred my credit line from the CO Card to the United Card and closed the CO Card account.
I received my $50 credit on my statement and the 50,000 United points just posted to my account today. It took about 4 weeks from original approval date. Girlfriend did the same on the same date and hers posted today too.

I tried searching, but couldn't find the answer ... is there an expiration for this 65K offer? I want to get some relatives in on it, but won't be until early July.

I had seen somewhere that there is a requirement to have miles in your United account for one to be eligible for the 65K offer. is that true ? My friend wants to get on the 65K offer but it is not working for him using the links above.
Can somebody help?
Thank you,
