Discussion continues HERE.

This card is subject to Chase's 5/24 policy. To read a summary of the policy click HERE. To discuss it click HERE.

You can override 5/24 by having an in-branch pre-approval (only! online prequalification does NOT override 5/24), or by already being Chase Private Client (as in you see the "Chase Private Client" text on the login screen of the Chase mobile app.)

Landing page with bonus offer (100,000 UR after spending $4,000 in 90 days):

https://creditcards.chase.com/credit...04&IS2F=Y71UH0

Application page: https://applynow.chase.com/FlexAppWe...L3P&PROMO=DF01

100,000 UR points is worth $1,000 as statement credit, $1,500 when used for travel through the Chase portal, or potentially more if transferred to a partner.

Card features are here:https://www.chase.com/card-benefits/...reserve/travel. The card's Priority Pass includes unlimited guests. [Verified in Post #2635] Also verified by Chase

The card is made of the same material as the CSP, and is being shipped UPS Next Day Air Saver to everyone after production (currently (8/26) appears to have about a 3-day delay after approval before shipping. Expedited shipping is no longer being approved). Some are getting plastic cards with no box. Chase advises metal cards will follow later in these cases.

How to determine your account number, expiration date, and shipping date before receiving the card:
1. Send a secure message (SM) from the account. A common SM would be to ask about the sign-up bonus and last day to complete the spend requirement (which appears to be approximately 3.5 months from the date of approval).
2. Check the Sent Messages folder, and the full account number will be listed in the header of the message that you just sent. The number starts with 414720....
3. The expiration date is three years from the month of approval. So, if you were approved on August 31, 2016, your expiration date will be August 2019.
4. CVV2 number is not available, so if a merchant requires it for payment, you must wait for the physical card.
5. According to many reports, the card is not activated until it is shipped, which happens to be UPS Next Day Air Saver (if shipped on Friday, you will not receive the card until Monday or the next business day). To find out when it is shipped, go to My UPS and sign up for a free account. You'll be notified when a shipment is destined to your address.

Priority Pass Select
Click HERE to read the separate thread discussing this benefit.
As soon as the account shows up online:
1. Click on Go To Ultimate Rewards.
2. Scroll down to the very bottom left and click on "Card Benefits"
3. Activate Membership to request card.
4. Card will take 1-2 weeks and can't be expedited, but members have reported success in charging the lounge access to the card and requesting a refund from Customer Service.
5. PP cards will be issued for the account holder and any AU(s)
6. According to Chase, CSR's PP membership includes guest access.

Duplicate Card
1. If you receive the plastic card, wait for the metal card to arrive automatically.
2. If you receive the metal card, send SM or call to request plastic card (for use with overseas merchants that require a card imprint, because you hate metal cards, whatever).
3. DO NOT request a replacement card (especially under any pretense that the card was lost or misplaced).
4. Both cards will have the same number, expiration and CVV. Both cards will work.
5. It appears that all CSR cards are sent overnight once produced, including the plastic 'replacement' cards. No need to request expedited shipping.

How to get bonus points on the first statement:
Act very quickly; you may have less than a week. It depends on the timing of your first statement and when you receive the card. 4K in spending has to clear (not pending) about a week before the statement cuts in order to get the bonus points on that statement. Under "account details" you can see your first payment due date. Your closing date is usually three calendar days after your due date. For instance, if your very first bill is due October 20 that statement would close on September 23, and spending would have to clear by approximately September 16 in order to get the bonus points.

Me too. I requested expedited delivery but was told it couldn't happen. Nice to see it's being overnighted anyways.

If I already have CSP and I get the new CSR card, does that mean my existing UR points will increase in value if I buy travel on the UR portal?

From what I understand, no it does not have to match the card holder name.

Thanks for the UPS My Choice tip.

I was approved online Monday morning and had a UPS message waiting saying that the card would be delivered tomorrow (Wednesday) -- 48 hour turnaround without having to request the expedited delivery.

You can immediately transfer all the UR points to the CSR and they gain value from 1.25 to 1.5

8/24 so based on what I read here and on Reddit, decided best chance was to apply in branch. I went to branch and found I was preapproved.
Applied and approved instantly.
Fico 808
Checking with Chase 5 years, savings 1 year.
6 current personal Chase cards
Income 80k
Not CPC

And let me just add..Woo Hoo! I am excited. I had been sure I was out of luck due to 5/24. very happy.

here is my dilemma, went to chase branch and found out not pre-appoved. Banker only asked for drivers license not SSN, so not sure how they looked up. Anyway, I am at 5/24 with last card being CSP 3 weeks ago but not showing on creditkarma. My oldest drops off end of Sept. Should I take the hit and try applying hoping they don't see the last card on their screen or just wait? I have some spending coming up that would help with the min spend without any MS.

Consensus?

Unclear. The wording is vague it's possible that guests could be allowed in.

My wife plans to apply for this card and add me as an authorized user (at the time of applying). I am over the 5/24, will she be denied because of this? Thanks!

Some years ago I opted out @ https://www.optoutprescreen.com/opt_form.cgi

Opting in, I should start receiving credit card offers, correct? do you have to do anything else?

I was in and out of the bank in under 6 minutes. Kind of shocked me how quickly this guy ran it through for approval. I walked out a bit surprised, but pleased. Then it dawned on my that I hadn't confirmed anything about the signup bonus. Called Chase to confirm approval and they said yes approved, but wait for welcome pack to see bonus they couldn't tell me. Should I be worried?
I was given documentation of the terms by the banker after she signed me up. That included the bonus info, which I had forgotten to confirm being so excited I was preapproved. Did the banker not give you any documentation at all? She had me physically sign acceptance of the terms, interest rate etc., which she copied, and with that paper were the bonus details as well.
