To be fair you shouldn't have to. The conditions of the offer are that it is the FIRST spend which triggers both the first bonus and the second bonus, not paying the annual fee. They've just set the second bonus disbursement to be after you've paid the second fee, not because you did. That's the way it's been explained to myself and to a bunch of other people by the telephone representatives.
TL;DR: No.

Can I get in on this deal if i did the 100K British Airways deal last year? I wasn't sure if it is technically the same deal since now they call the miles Avios? Thanks!

how to apply for this deal over the phone???
Ok...my current situation.... have two Chase cards...770 score....
and I had this BA Exec Club Visa card in 2010 and cancelled in 2011, and got that nice 100K bonus back then.
But I just realized, that none of my current five credit cards, have the "no foreign transaction fee", which I actually need each summer.
So... whats the best way to go about trying to get his card again, along with the new 100K enrollment bonus? Is there a number I can call to apply ???????? Id give the reason that I need a foreign fee free card.

If it has EMV it will have a metallic square with kind of grid lines on the left side of the front of the card, just above the first four digits of the card number. The BA card on Chase's website shows it (here). The metallic square is the chip that you insert into the slot of the card reader. I don't think it actually says EMV anywhere. Hope that explained it okay.

Applied last night following post 1 instructions, received the approval screen with a link to go back to complete the booking and stopped. However, I've not received any email confirmation or follow ups. Is that normal? I'd expected something since an email address was requested during the process.

I'm not sure if its the AF that activates the bonus. I just think that the final 50k miles bonus is given in the begining of the 2nd year and happens to coincide with when the AF is charged. My rationale is that, if you don't have the card for the full 2nd year, does Chase really have the right to keep all 12 months worth of the AF (in yr 2)?

I suppose it's 1-year and $75 bucks away .... let's see what happens for those who are curious.
