** On or before May 30th, 2018** - ALL Chase Marriott cardholders that held the card as of March 15th, 2018, will receive:
  • 1 Night Stay Certificate for a Category 1-5 Marriott Hotel
  • 15 Night Stay Credit towards elite status

** CHASE HAS CLOSED ACCOUNTS AS OF MARCH 15, 2018 **

By now you should have been notified that your Marriott Rewards® Visa® Credit Card will be closing on March 15, 2018. Here's what you need to know:

• CONTINUE EARNING.
You will still be able to continue to use your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card and earn points on eligible purchases through March 14, 2018. After that date, you will no longer be able to make purchases or earn points on your Marriott Rewards Visa Credit Card.

• USE YOUR POINTS.
This does not impact your Marriott Rewards account. You will still be able to access and use any points and benefits that you have earned.

If you have paid an annual fee for your card any time between April 2017 and December 2017, Chase Canada has said that they will give you a prorated rebate of the fee back as a statement credit on your account.


If, however, your annual renewal fee is due between January 2018 and March 2018, you will NOT have to pay it. You may continue to use your card until March 15, 2018

As a cardholder, you will still receive your 15 Elite Night Credits and Free Night Certificate, regardless of your anniversary date. They will be deposited into your Marriott Rewards account after March 14, 2018.


Existing Chase Marriott Visa cardholders will be given a special signup to the Amex SPG CC for 25,000 welcome points and $120/yr annual fee.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Information below is left here for reference only, so that others who applied before the deadline can refer to the info.

If you find a working application link buried in this thread and apply through it don't be surprised if you do not get the advertised welcome bonuses.

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.
  • You can find List of Marriott Hotels and their Categories via below searches

Hey folks, just came upon this thread. I'm making a large USD purchase and I've heard that this card will charge exchange rates very close to xe.com. Is this true? If so, how fast do they approve/send out card? I need to buy before the end of the month! Is the 50k points offer still available? My options are chase cards so is the processing time the same?

Points Deposit Time?

Hi Everyone,

Just wondering how long it typically takes to have the 50k bonus pts deposited? My statement closed April 11. I'm hoping to take advantage of the MR -> Aeroplan transfer bonus currently offered, but it closes on April 27...

Thanks

Again, I wouldn't do any cash advances unless I really needed to, and only if I've pre-loaded a positive balance on the card.

If you get this to work (multiple days, maximum daily cash advance limits), share your successes with the community!
My report:
Max limit per day is probably the max limit that was indicated on the cash advance line in the welcome package, right under the credit limit line.

I could withdraw close to 2000$ then again 2000$ the next day after sending in an additional payment to the card account.

No fees from Chase, but a charge for the ATM at Japan Post; as warned by the ATM terminal, I got a commission fee from <Credit Saison> a credit card emitter in Japan. Never got that charge in the past. Fee was 10$ each time. Ive seen worse in Canada.

Things have changed a lot in the past 10 years in Japan and I wont be using cash as much for my future trip as there is now really good credit card acceptance in the major cities and even suburbs which kind of surprised me.

Got the points, but no e-cert for free night... at least none that I can see. Damn, I had no idea. Guess I should've tried using a new account number

That was quick. I received approval for the card and they have already given me the e-cert for the free night. They sent me an email last night informing me of this and I also checked on-line on my rewards page! Whoo hoo!

Low income

Anyone have any success applying with relatively low income but good credit ratings?

I recall reading somewhere that this card required 60K personal income or 100K household income. So, I think it is just AMEX where if you do not enter a number that min the above requirement, they will decline you automatically.

Is there an expiry date on this offer? Sorry I tried to look back at some old posts but couldn't find any. Also is the min income 60K and 100K household then?

Min Spend

Is there a min spend in 3 months or anything like that on this card?
