I just made the Ultimate mistake! Help!

Ugh!!!!!

I had 67,000 Ultimate reward points and transferred to marriot not realizing what a huge mistake that is.

They are saying its impossible for me to get them back into the Chase account and they are stuck in Marriot land. Any advice. 3 supervisors have all said NO WAY

Points transfers aren’t reversable. Why do you feel that it was a huge mistake? What were your plans for the points?

newbie making no sense, call 911

Anyway, once you transfer the points out, it is a DONE deal! It is not lost/stolen, use it for marriot stays

Are you a Dimon level member with chase?

You could escalate to Jamie directly to have him reverse your transaction

What's "Diamon" (I assume you mean Diamond?) level, and how do you get Diamond level?

Life is too short. Enjoy your Marriott points and move on. No need crying over spilled milk.

Apply for the Chase Marriott card and make lemonade out of lemons. Seriously though, UR->Marriott is not really a big mistake if you can get your Marriott points high enough - once you get enough for Nights + Flights they are worth a lot more. So apply for the marriott card, keep an eye on the Ritz card for a point bonus instead of a night bonus, and do Nights + Flights to get your points out.

Dimon = CEO of JPMorgan Chase.

Points transfers are NOT reversible, unfortunately. OP should focus on getting the most for his redemption. Don't blow the points booking a Category 5 Marriott that costs $139/night.
