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.

Applied online Monday and instantly approved. Called customer service and sternly told not able to expedite shipping.
Just received notice from UPS that I have a Chase package scheduled for delivery today.

OK thanks, got the calendar view but I have no shipments listed anywhere. Strange - and a tad annoying lol.

This is just comical at this point. Who's idea was it to send the memo to CS reps telling them that they are "unable" to expedite shipping when clearly the plan all along was to overnight every single one of these? Sheesh.

Denied online 5/24, denied in-branch 5/24. No preapprovals (for any card) despite being a Chase checking/savings customer for 7+ years, having 6 cards with them (Freedom, Freedom Unlimited, CSP, Ink, Hyatt, IHG) with flawless history spanning 7+ years, and 770-800 FICO scores.

Others may have a better guideline, but I would think it should still be around in September, maybe October. Personally, I'm just waiting for a card to clear so I can dip back to 4/24. Then I'll run to Chase like my life depended on it.

How are people getting the UPS notifications? I didn't supply Chase with my My Choice account for tracking purposes. Is it just done by address?

Also, keep in mind this isn't a standard new card presentation, where there is a conveyor of sheets of paper with cards stamped on them, and machines automatically folding the letters and putting them in envelopes. These are packages with multiple components, in which a card needs to be placed inside. And, the boxes need to be packed, taped, and put on a truck. So perhaps Chase wanted to play it safe, as they couldn't be 100% confident that the process would go on time.

So do we think everyone who was approved is getting the card expedited? Also got told no way to expedite and I need to buy a plane ticket like yesterday. I could wait until Friday if the card is going to show up, but really don't want to go beyond that and lose the fare!

I'm quite certain you're correct, especially given the packaging. That said, someone very high up the food chain at Chase knew that, after production, these cards would be delivered via UPS next day air. That info could have been helpful to some.
