As of Oct 2019, offer is as follows:
What can I do with Chase Freedom Ultimate Rewards (UR) points?
More info here: http://thepointsguy.com/2015/09/maxi...hase-trifecta/
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
- $200 (20K UR points) for $500 spend in first 3 months.
- No annual fees.
- This is the best available offer since the past few years.
- Public Application Link
What can I do with Chase Freedom Ultimate Rewards (UR) points?
- Transfer them to a Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Reserve, or Chase Ink Business UR points at 1:1. If you own one of those cards, this is probably the best option for you.
- Redeem for cash back (statement credit or to a checking account), 1 cent per UR point. So, the 20K UR points for signing up will get you $200 cash back. This is generally the default option if you do not own a Sapphire or Ink card.
- Redeem them for various gift cards, or shop with points at Amazon.com (usually same value as cash back, eg. $25 for 2500 UR).
- Book flights/hotels/car rental/activities through Ultimate Rewards, and pay in full or in part using points (1 cent per UR).

In case people here were unaware, the Chase Freedom is now $200 sign-up bonus after spending $500 in 3 months.
You can find sign-up links all over the web.
My question is I applied right at 2-3 weeks ago, do you think Chase will retroactively give me the increased sign-up bonus since the time frame is so short if I call and ask ?
Applied on Oct 30 and received my card Nov 7.

Chase Freedom Card: $200 Bonus Cash Back after spending $500 in first 3 months
The latest Chase Freedom sign-up bonus just came out today: $200 bonus cash back after spending $500 within 3 months of account opening.
It's also worth noting that one of the 5% cash back categories this quarter is Amazon.com.

I applied for the Freedom on August 22, so I'm on the phone now. The rep said that she will put the request in to marketing.
Is this 90-day period in their terms?
Edit: rep did not even forward it to marketing, but was told by a supervisor that this is for new customers only. I sent a secure message asking to receive the bonus any way.
