Use this thread to discuss the Sapphire Reserve card offer. There are separate threads to discuss:
$300 Travel Credit
Priority Pass
Concierge Service
Travel Insurance
Global Entry/TSA PreCheck reimbursement.
This card is subject to Chase's 5/24 policy. For information on (and discussion of) the policy, see Applying for Chase Credit Cards, 2017 onward. 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.)
As of August 2018, all Chase Sapphire cards are (with limited exceptions) subject to an additional restriction:
See Sapphire (CSR & CSP) 48 months between bonuses, August 2018 for details and ongoing discussion.

Application page: https://applynow.chase.com/FlexAppWe...304&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.
How to determine your account number, expiration date, and shipping date before receiving the card
(** Note that this no longer seems to work checking on 5/18 - the account number in the secure message header is XXXXXX'd out except for last 4 digits)
(** Also I do not see any recent comments 5/18 on timely shipping or shipping method)
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 five years from the month of approval. So, if you were approved on August 31, 2016, your expiration date will be August 2021.
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 via 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 for your address.
6. Contrary to what the customer service rep may tell you about the delivery of the card—such as the card will take 1-2 weeks or that expedited shipping is not available—the card is actually expedited and shipped via express shipping, as mentioned in #5. There is no need to ask for expedited shipping.
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.

I did a double dip of CSR and CSP in June and met the CSP minimum spend in a month and got the 50k bonus.
I hit the CSR minimum spend a few days back and have not yet received the bonus. When I sent a secure message, they told me that since I received the bonus for CSP in June, I won't get it for CSR. I'm hoping this is not correct. my statement closes in a few days. Any recent datapoints?

I've seen dozens if not hundreds of examples of the double-dip over the last year. The bonus success rate has been 100% for those that meet the minimum spend.

I don't mind the 24 to 48 month rule at all. Hopefully, this will discourage churners and prevent a devaluation.
Bonus points to Chase for implementing this rule nearly two years after CSR was released as an additional sting to churners.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Chase instituted an new policy of allowing only ONE Sapphire card last year. I think this is the issue. See: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/chas...hire-card.html So, while you were able to get two Sapphire cards you'll only get one bonus.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Historically, Chase will not issue the card if the bonus is not attached (i.e., you don't qualify for it. Differs from AMEX policy.) The double dip is the way around the one Sapphire rule and - again - the bonus would be attached to the card or it wouldn't have been issued.
As pallhedge noted earlier, CSR/CSP double dip has been eminently successful in obtaining both bonuses. I suspect Sheldor will receive his CSR bonus eventually as there is a known problem at Chase right now with credit card sign-up bonuses not posting on time (reported on other forums.)
(If there is any problem in this scenario, in my opinion, it is that the Sheldor contacted Chase and put human eyes on the account and those human eyes noticed the two Chase Sapphire cards.)

Finally got the 25K bonus for AMEX Everyday so I bit the bullet and went 7/24 today...the Chase change to CSR/CSP solidified that decision

I see zero reason to renew my CSR for the 3rd time next month either.
Will PC down to Chase Freedom and barely put spend on Chase cards going forward.

ahh, it's the post from Sheldor discussed in the last several posts. So it seems there hasn't really been a proven data point that you won't make 2 bonuses if you double dip, it's just everyone is getting jumpy regarding Chase right now. Thanks Mia.

Well aware...have moved away from Chase anyway to build MR...don't see the value in another $450 expense for a card I'm barely using...

Check your Ultimate Rewards dashboard. It will tell you how many points you have pending on your next statement.
I've seen dozens if not hundreds of examples of the double-dip over the last year. The bonus success rate has been 100% for those that meet the minimum spend.
