** 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

With exactly one month to go, anyone heard any further news about an "official" replacement Marriott credit card to replace the existing one issued by JPMC (private label by Scotiabank)? Is the Amex SPG card the one?

Unless you're a Rogers customer. But in either case, it's still a net win.
I have, in many cases, purchases two of something to see what they looked like in my home. Colored things like curtains, etc. need to be seen in their environment. Just the other day I purchased some wall hooks that my wife didn't like from IKEA on the way home. Back they went.

However, I tend not to purchase things on the internet that I have to return.

My anniversary was a couple of days ago and I received the free night certificate along with 15 elite nights credit

I look forward to getting another free night certificate and an additional 15 elite nights credit on March 20th.

Got my points from Feb statement, so, look like they fixed the problem.

​​​​​​I do wonder if they are going to delay March statement cut-off date to March 14/15 or we do actually going to have an April statement that only for transactions from March 11 to March 14/15.

I hope so - it would be dumb to have such a short statement period. However, I'm under the impression that charges will go through up to and including the 15th?

The only reason why I put 14th or 15th is because some of the communication state it will stop working on the 14th and some state 15th.

They will need to print a statement for your last payment anyway.

I currently have a credit balance thanks to the $72 refund. Think I'll just leave it and let them issue a cheque.

mhmm I still don't see any kind of refund or anything on my card. Will see what happens once it gets even closer to cancellation.

my anniversary was in November and I didnt receive the 15 credit.. I called and they say I will only receive them after March 15. Should I be receiving my 15 credits for November plus another 15 for the card closing?

How are people finding their free night certificates? Is it the Marriott Rewards Web site somewhere?

You can see it on the Activities page when you login to your account. You can also see it when you book a cat 1-5 hotel and gives you the option to redeem the certificate.

Yes, if you're logged in, click on your name in the top right hand corner, and a menu will appear. If you click 'Activity' you'll see 'Unused Certificates' at the top.

I still only see the certificate issued back on November when my card renewed. We're told we should see another one loaded for the March 15th cancellation. Not sure if the certificate will be added to our accounts before, on, or after March 15th - but we're all waiting with bated breath!

I think the 15 nights are supposed to post around the same time you get your renewal certificate. Are you sure you didn't get your 15 nights? I *think* got mine back in November, but I didn't check.

What's showing now in our accounts is "rollover" nights (which is your total earned, minus the previous year's rollover, minus the amount of nights required to maintain your elite status). I am not even sure if my number is correct. I wish there was a way to see a detailed breakdown of the calculation of qualifying nights!

You do know that you can see a breakdown of nights by going to "Account Activities" and clicking the number of nights earned at the top, right? Maybe you're looking for more details than that, but I post this in case you didn't know!

I earned my free hotel night and 15 nights yesterday, right on schedule. I'm crossing my fingers for one more, as well as an additional 15 nights, to show up after March 15th.
