Chase Private Clients may be pre-approved for better or different offers, it's worth asking your banker.

My math says a 50K offer. Where do the extra points come from?
The extra 5000 points come from adding an authorized user after you have been approved for the card. no longer available
Is there a business card?
Yes, and Flyertalk has a thread devoted to the business card: United business card currently offering 30K miles: United MP Business card: public offer now 50K miles!!
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
How long should I wait between canceling a card and then reapplying?
What's the Chase "5/24" policy I keep hearing about?
Now that I've completed the required spend, when will my signup bonus post?
See the wiki and related discussion in Applying for Chase Credit Cards, 2017 onward
Where can I find an online copy of the guide to the card's benefits (such as purchase protection, car rental CDW coverage, etc.)?
Go to https://www.chasebenefits.com/unitedVW4
A few of the best features of the card include priority boarding, a free checked bag, and increased award ticket availability. Priority boarding and the free checked bag for cardholders is included even on the new "basic economy" fares.

I got targeted for 50k after 2k spend (plus 5k for AU). Got the mail today. AF waived for first year.
Now, I am torn between getting this and waiting till new Chase's new card (reserve) comes out. I am 4/24. I also have a Delta Amex targeted offer (50k after 1k spend). Both MPE and DL Amex offers are valid till end of september. Any suggestions?

I'm assuming you already have the Select as it's long gone from being offered?
If so and you value earning miles with your spend, don't get rid of the Select. 2x miles at places like Wal-Mart, Target, etc....
You also get 5,000 bonus miles added annually.

Hi,
I have a question all your gurus on here.
I've been using a Chase MileagePlus card since 10 yrs ago. At some point, I remember I upgraded to the Chase MileagePlus Explorer since it was first released. I think my CC history is based on the Explorer card. I know for sure that I shouldn't cancel this card, but I would like to upgrade this card.
Most of the expenses on this Explorer card is business related. At this point, I see that the Business version of the Explorer card offers 1.5pts for selected charges. Is it a good idea to call them up and upgrade directly to the business version? Would I be able to keep the same CC number?

Also, I'm assuming $3k is in actual spend, and I shouldn't factor in adjustments like the $50 statement credit against the $3k spend requirement?

Checked Bag rules
Hello. Sorry if this has been asked or answered before but I couldn't find it.
I have the Chase United Explorer Credit Card.
I plan to buy a United airline ticket.
1.) If I buy the ticket directly through United and use my United Credit Card I assume I will get my 1st bag checked. Question is will they consider a snowboard bag applicable to "standard bag"? I don't think they charge extra for this type of bag generally but I don't want them to pull off some BS "this isn't standard bag" so you owe $25.
2.) Assuming the snowboard bag is a valid bag for the credit. If I wanted to use Citi Thank You points to buy my ticket but try to charge at least a portion of the ticket to my United Credit Card would that allow me to get the free checked bag credit? (For Snowboard). I wasn't sure if anyone tried the partial payment for the ticket on the United card and if that gave them the free checked bag.
Thanks.

It is there, near the bottom:
...but it refers you to another Wikipost:

...and you have to scroll down, down, down to find the answer:
Now that I've completed the required spend, when will my signup bonus post?

Once I meet the card's spend requirement, how soon will I receive my signup bonus points?
Bonus points typically accrue at the close of the billing period in which you incur the corresponding charges. Points should appear in your hotel/airline account within a few days thereafter.
NOTE: If you complete your required spending in the last 7-10 days of the statement period, the bonus may not post until the following month's statement, even if the regular per-dollar points post on the first statement. This is normal behavior for Chase and is not worth a phone call.
