Tips:
- Go to marriott.com and apply for a Marriott Rewards account first, and have the member/account number ready during application. If you did NOT do this then Chase will create an account for you - look for the numbers on the lower left of your new Visa card, it may be displayed there.
- Spend at least $1 on your new card by the 9th of the month, so that the txn posts by the 11th onto your online account at Chase (https://online.chasecanada.ca).
- Seemingly, all Canadian Chase Marriott Visa accounts cycle on the 11th of the month. Points are posted by Chase to Marriott.com and the 50K points will appear by the 18th or 19th of the month.
- You will see the points posted on page 3 of your paper statement when it arrives in the postal mail. Chase does not provide Canadians with an online PDF statement, only transactions. If by the 19th you don't see points posted, double-check the Marriott Rewards number on your paper statement to ensure it matches your true account number, in case Chase messed up and created a new MR account on your behalf.
- When setting up payment for the card at online banking, look for "MARRIOTT VISA" as the card name.
- If using this card outside of Canada, ensure you prime the PIN onto the card at a CHIP/PIN terminal while IN Canada, before you leave for your trip. You cannot prime the card while in Europe (for eg.)
- YMMV, but if you decide to cancel this card, it is advisable to do it WELL before the anniversary date, as Chase may not pro-rate a refund.
- If you plan to use this card outside of Canada (no FX fees), you should call Chase to let them know, so your card won't get locked. I've never called when using it on extended travel in the US, but for sure I would call and let them know if I was going to use it elsewhere (Europe, Asia, Antarctica).
- If you log out of MARRIOTT.COM and notice an 80,000 point offer, it is a USA-only offer.

So I called yesterday, and was told that I got approved! 
The free night certificate posted to my Marriott account yesterday night as well, and now I'm just waiting for my card to arrive. Hoping to book some rooms at the JW Marriott with it soon, and then my trip will be (mostly) set! ^

Update: husband received his paper statement today and he earned 30,036 points so that's a successful churn for him as well! No annual fee charged, elite nights awarded but no free cat 4 certificate. Either way, I'm happy. Between the two of us we managed to eek out 160,000 points from the sign up bonuses.

I have 20 elite nights this year, all listed under rollover nights, with 70 lifetime nights. He appears to have 15 nights, all listed under reward credit card nights, with 35 lifetime nights. I suspect this is due to my renewal benefits hitting my account just as I cancelled last year.

It's been running continuously for at least 6 months...I have the exact same link as what Jeff posted. You can trust that it is for the 50K promo, and it's good till April 15th.

The new 2014 devaluation is brutal (covered by MANY bloggers now)
http://www.rewards-insiders.marriott...ory%20File.pdf
All my target Cat 4/5 hotels are all moving out of range of MegaBonus
That's New York, Toronto, Washington DC, Niagara Falls, Vancouver, Chicago, etc...

This is just my personal opinion, but I think the reason my husband and I were successful with our churns was because we did the 50k and then 30k. People that have tried 50k twice have been declined for the card, AFAIK.

In my case, I applied for the 30K online back in Aug 2012, but when they sent me the 50K email a month after I applied (in Sept 2012) I called and asked them to upgrade my promo points to the 50K offering, and they complied. So, now I'm wondering...when I speak with Chase, do I negotiate on the basis that I signed up with the 50K promo, and now I want the 30K promo? Or does my original 30K promo signup, and morphing into the 50K offer, nullify me on both counts?
=====
BTW, I still get the 30K offers, and my wife gets the 50K offers, though we have both cancelled our cards. Her latest 50K March email is almost the same as the previous one (see Jeff's signup link, expires April 15, 2014), but has a little bit longer expiry date of Apr 30th. The email format does look a little different now compared to previous months mailings, but I believe it's still all the same offerings (50K, $0 FYF, No ForEx Fees, 1-nite Cat4 E-Cert, etc, etc).
Unfortunately, the signup links don't confirm that you are signing up for the 50K offer. Anyone interested in seeing the original emails, shoot me a PM and I can scrub the original email from Chase and forward it. Otherwise, take a leap of faith and trust that Jeff's link (identical to the one my wife got in the Feb email) is eligible for the 50K...or call Chase and mention code X2CW.
One of my NOFs reported that when he called Chase, they asked if he got the email offer, and he said no, so they didn't offer him the signup promos. But, since the 30K/50K email offers come from Marriott, I don't think Chase can tell if you really got the email offer or not, so you can tell Chase you did receive one in your inbox.

Shake, did you first apply with a 50K promo link, and then on the churn you used a 30K link? Or did you apply for the cards over the phone, for both you and hubby?

I'm really not sure why we were able to churn. I've never spoken to an agent regarding any four of our applications - all online. I called once after my initial 30k hit to ask for the add't 20k and that's it. I only had a gap of about 6-8 weeks between cards (Aug 2013 - early Oct 2013) and he had a gap of Aug 2013 to Feb 2014.
