I should have been clearer in my post that I did make the new booking before I canceled the old one. So it was not a "cancel and rebook", it was a "book again then cancel original". It was clawed back. It posted today.
Maybe if you wait for the new purchase to post to the account before canceling the original it would work? I don't know. I am just hoping that this third booking, which was made after I saw the meter reset to 0/250, properly triggers the credit again. I will leave it to others to play it risky and figure out the exact behaviors. |

Not only did I get the EDIT credit (should we call it the crEDIT?), I also got a $100 credit for booking with Chase Travel. It was one of the offers available as I scrolled through the card offers.

There is an item from Hyatt today saying "Hyatt will also continue to increase the number of luxury and premium brands, such as Park Hyatt and Alila, participating in The Edit by Chase Travel." If there is substantive follow-through, it could make the program better, since I expect that a lot of us who actively use Chase cards are also looped into the Hyatt program.

Specifically the question is whether they link a specific reservation to a specific credit.
Based on my experience, I think there is zero hope for being able to adjust bookings in a subsequent year and it's not even seamless to cancel and rebook in the same period because there is a lag in the credit resetting its availability after cancel. Also, my most recent rebooking attempt which was after the meter went back to 0/250 has now posted both the new booking transaction and the new $250 credit onto my transactions list. Thankfully, I will not be needing to adjust it again. On the bright side, all this booking and cancelling and multiple applications of credits sent my remaining statement balance to zero. |

i know you are not one to take risk or game the system, but it is still good to know because sometimes, plans just change |
Here is a data point for those looking for an Edit property that doesn't break the bank so you can take advantage of the $250 credit. I haven't seen Oceans Edge in Key West mentioned in this thread. Granted this property is located on Stock Island and is about a 15 minute free shuttle ride to Duval St, but you can get a 2 night stay there midweek in November for a little over $400 all in. Booked this a few days ago and the $250 credit showed up on my account the same day the pre paid charge posted. After factoring in the $250 credit, the $100 resort credit, and the free breakfast this seems like a pretty good deal.

if you want to be just negative and not contribute to the discussion, then i dont think there is any point posting or reading this thread. there are obviously things that are untested and maybe able to work. but you already definitively know that they dont.
i think there is still possibility that it can work. it is possible that you can book in 2025, get the 2025 $250 credit, and book another stay in 2026 and get a 2026 $250 credit. when you cancel the 2025 reservation, the clawback might be returned to your 2026 quota. i.e. you will see your tracker for 2026 reset and you have $500 for 2026 again, although you actually cancelled the 2025 reservation i know you are not one to take risk or game the system, but it is still good to know because sometimes, plans just change what I’m 100% sure of is that the Amex fhr credit is worth substantially more than this. There is a reason Chase is reporting that signups are below expectations! I was a day 1 signup for this card and 80% of my spend has gone onto it…but it’s turned into garbage, with a select few ignoring facts to argue they get value from it. I’m thrilled my card renewed in September without being charged an annual fee. Despite being in nyc so one of the few that can get anything out of the crazy Tables scheme, I’ll happily get rid of the card…until then I’ll try to get a few perks |

I’m not sure I just want to be negative, but every datapoint suggested so far that this won’t work. Will we officially know before someone tries this next year, nope? But the person who tries has a 99% chance of losing a credit.
what is established is if you cancel and rebook while your tracker shows $0 available credit, there is a good chance (not 100% since i have seen other positive DPs) the credit will be clawed back and not reapplied. if you cancel and wait for the clawback before you rebook, you will get the credit applied again how this works across years is anyone's guess. as i have mentioned, if you had used a 2026 $250 credit, nobody knows what happens if you canceled a reservation made in 2025. it is still possible that the clawback reset the 2026 tracker, and not the 2025 one. nothing we have seen so far informs us on this regard, so idk how you arrive at the 99%. your negativity is you assume the worst case here and declaring that it doesnt work, but have no evidence for it since you are comparing with amex, amex is more clawback happy than chase, but even they dont match clawback to the specific transaction that earned it in the first place. there are suggestions online that their algorithm simply looks fhr spend over a period longer than a year. so who is to say chase will? chase might take the easier approach and will return it to your 2026 tracker after the clawback further, i have this problem because my credit is only available to me on 26 Oct, giving me limited time to use it. starting 2026, everyone will have both credits from 1 Jan, so there is a much smaller need to book across years, thus minimizing the issue. meanwhile, you still have to use fhr credits in each half of the year, and hence increasing the likelihood that you will book across years |

I was searching for an inexpensive hotel in San Diego to redeem this year's Edit travel credit when I came across the one mentioned above. I noticed the "IHG One Rewards Eligible" link, which would have been ideal if the property weren't part of Marriott. I contacted Chase Travel, and after explaining the issue several times, it finally clicked with the representative. She put me on hold while she reached out to the property directly. When she returned to the line, she confirmed that it is indeed a Marriott property and eligible for Marriott Bonvoy rewards. She also forwarded the details to a supervisor in hopes that the information on the Chase travel portal will be updated. |
So, I just finished my 1 hour phone call with Chase Travel. When I booked Cosmopolitan Hotel at Vegas with Chase EDIT, it said Resort Fee is included. When I got my bill, I saw that it was charged in the bill and Chase's "Mastercard" prepaid credit did not cover it. First I contacted MGM to find out why and they replied that Chase did not pay for the Resort Fee. And then I just finished calling Chase Travel and after a long checking, they said MGM does not allow Resort Fee to be prepaid and you have to pay at check in time. So even though Chase Travel system "clearly" said the Resort Fee of $50 per day is included, it was not. And worst Chase Travel would not just refund it themselves. BTW, because I got the folio from MGM, I knew that Chase Travel charges me $1009 for the room but MGM is only charging Chase $889.
My advice for anyone going to book MGM hotels at Vegas is that make sure you have a print out of your Resort Fee included at check in. And you have to insisted at check in that Resort Fee is included so that they may waive it at the hotel because once you get the room charge on your credit card, Chase Travel won't admit that it's their fault or refund that money. |
I used my $250 credit on a Las Vegas hotel a few months back and in my account I see the benefit status saying 'REDEEMED'. Unfortunately, I have to cancel the trip so I understand the $250 credit would be clawed back which is fine. My question is does the benefit status go back to 'available' and meter shows $0/$250 after the claw back?
