How do I get the current [70K | 80K | other] offer?
Which offer is better, X with annual fee waived or Y with no fee waiver?
Can I apply for this card and earn the bonus after doing so previously?
Once I meet the card's initial spending requirement, how soon will I receive my signup bonus points?
If I cancel my card after the annual free-night cert has posted, will I lose the cert?

FYI I've had the Marriott Rewards card twice before, last time more than two years ago.
Got the free night bonus deposited into my account for opening the cert, and do expect to get the 70k bonus points when I complete the minimum spend.

How long to get approved and sent card?
When I applied for the Hyatt Chase card, I was instantly approved.
I just signed up for the Hilton Amex card and they instant approved me, gave me my card number and temporary CID instantly, and 2-day UPS'd the card to me!
Marriott Chase email said they are evaluating it and don't call us we'll snail mail you the answer.

Thanks for the advice. I called a few days ago and they told me it was approved but was just entering processing. It still isn't showing in my Chase online account view. Last time when I got the Hyatt card, it showed up before the card arrived.
I was told the reason it took some time is because I had other Chase cards so they wanted to take a look at the total credit exposure.

Just a random observation, when my Chase Marriott card is in my wallet, my Clipper Card stops working. I have tested and can prove its the Marriott card.
This is a Clipper Card:

I wonder if this card is a contactless payment card?

Same happens if I put any contactless payment card (transit card or credit card) in a wallet with substantial metal content. I think the problem is the metal, not a conflict with another chip.

I love the card, but I might have to ask for a plastic one....

I am referring to whatever material is used to fabricate the Marriott credit card. Most Chase non-plastic cards are composites with a metal core to create heft, and only a small amount of more expensive external material for show. I do not know the composition of this specific card, but the presence of an EMV chip should not disrupt the operation of a contactless chip because there are many cards with both features.

Does anyone know what the chances are of getting approved for this card if one already has the Ritz-Carlton card with the 140k points offer? I wonder if I should wait at least 6 months from that card opening before applying for this.

My wife got approved for the Marriott 70K a few weeks after being approved for the Ritz-Carlton 140K offer.

Typically, when do the 15 elite nights show up in your account once you have been approved? I received the Cat 1-4 Cert yesterday. I was curious if the elite nights would show up at the same time, but they didn't. When I went back to read the T&C, I got a bit confused.
On one screen it says, "15 credits toward Elite status every year after account anniversary."
On another screen it says, "15 credits toward your next Elite membership level after account approval and every year after account anniversary.*"
That first line seems to suggest that you don't get the elite nights until your card anniversary. Just wondering if anyone has not had the elite nights show up.
