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.

For discussion of Mileage Plus benefits, see the master thread in the United forum, found here: United MileagePlus Master Wiki

It's the old Chase MileagePlus (non-Explorer) card, with no AF and weak earning (1 mile/$2 in spend).

They certainly still exist; my DW has one, which she downgraded to from an Explorer card a few years back, even after the no-fee card had stopped being something you could sign up for directly. The wiki for the current Chase downgrade thread and its predecessor both mention this as a possible downgrade option, although I don't recall seeing any recent data points, so the info may be stale.

I have downgraded two cards to both the Mileage Plus and Travel Bank no fee versions in mid 2019.

Is the no-fee MileagePlus card just for keeping the credit line open, or does that also have the increased award availability, BG2 boarding, etc.?

My wife applied for a CIP Biz card and got the "We have received your request for a Chase credit card. We'll let you know our decision as soon as possible." note. With the 65K offer ending on Wednesday, is it OK for her to apply for this card now or do I need to wait on a decision on the CIP card? I'd apply myself, but I'm at 6/24. She's at 3 or 4/24.

I sill have increased award availability. I downgraded to this card in case I ever need to upgrade back to the Explorer card while being over 5/24.

Applying for another Chase card prior to the CIP being approved could put that application at risk.

OK. Thanks. Wish I had seen the end date for the offer before going for the CIP. Oh well, guess I'll have to wait and maybe go for the CIU in a month or so.

There is also a free card that is not open for applications, but might still be open for downgrades.

I want to apply for the new United MPE offer that came out today 60K for $3K spend. I just looked and received my last bonus on the MPE on 1/16/18, so its been 24 months, barely. I still have that account open, however, I downgraded it to the free version of the card a year ago. Am I good to apply for this one?

Any ideas on how to generate a referral link for the current 60k SUB with $3k spend? My referral link points to 40k SUB with $2k spend.

Did the business version of the Explorer card go away? All I see now is the New "Business" card.

Got manager and big RUNAROUND excuse saying yes there is such an offer but you didnt get that one..

Welcome to FT.

I suggest you wait the 6-8 wks after your first purchase before contacting Chase. It's been 2+ wks since you signed up on 1/12. Assuming you meet the TC, the credit should appear by the second statement.

Also, see this thread: Chase refuses to honor Explorer Mileage Plus offer for $250 statement credit.
