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.

I did pay attention to NOT provide SIN second time around (did provide it on first app) - that did not help either.

Thanks folks. My question was simply would you get what you are entitled to using the French link as posted, but then pressing the "English" button to fill in the application in English after first going to the French page.
Specifically :
1) If you were a first time applicant - did you get the FYF, free night + 50,000 points after first going to the French page, and pressing the "English" button on the top centre of the page?
2) If you were a repeat applicant - did you get the 50,000 points after first going to the French page, and pressing the "English" button on the top centre of the page?
Thanks.

Thanks so much MasterGeek. There is another way if you want to find out faster. If you call the number on the bank of your card and ask the customer service representative "How many points have you earned on your current statement beginning June 12, 2016" - they will tell you. Should be 50,000 + your purchases you have made.
If the original question was about repeat free night certificate - then I can share my experience. First ever marriott visa - applied through the english link in wiki at the top of the page. Second application (and I waited full year+1 day after canceling first) I clicked on french link on marriott website, filled it in french and got points, but no free night certificate.
So french/english makes no difference, same rules apply across.

I called but the agent said I had only 20 points from my first transaction ($10 restaurant purchase), perhaps I called early because the purchase just posted but the balance is still zero. When I asked him to confirm whether my account is linked to the 30K or 50K offer, he gave me the run around of "you need to call Marriott"

I have seen that the billing cycle ends on the 11th of the month. Purchases made by the 8th or so will make it on that bill. The bill should come in the mail by about the 15th depending on your mail service and the points earned posted on the 18th of the month to your rewards account. It may be too early to see....
I did just receive a new cc last month. I used the link that shows up when I go to the Marriott Rewards page and sign in. I have had a previous cc (or two!) so am silver elite, the 50k link seems to always be there.....

I have applied beginning of March, not sure if that was before or after public offer stopped (did not track that at all). I followed the link from my marriott.com account, and french applicaiton was unintentional on my part. The link just landed me on french application and I thought - why not, maybe I get free night. The link was for 50K and that is exactly what I got.

So it's been two years since I last churned this. Anyone successfully get the points/FYF for a third time? Don't care as much about the free night certificates since they're effectively useless anyway at cat 1-4.

I have had 3 cards now in just over 3 years. I held onto the card for the year each time as I like to take advantage of the 0% foreign ex rate when travelling. I cancel just as it is coming due to avoid the AF , wait a few months and apply again. Once approved you are good to go. No cat. 1-4 certificate or nights added to your count but 50,000 points and no annual fee. I will try it again next spring.....

Hi, does anyone know if I can use the certificate and book the room for someone else without me checking in the room?

Reid / MasterGeek : Does this for sure work? I have called Marriott in the past and they have told me the person absolutely has to be there whose name is on the certificate.
Thanks. Please let me know if this for sure works and which hotels as I would love to do this also.
