** 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

I applied for this card a couple months ago when the bonus was 50,000 points. Today the points were posted but only 30,000. I called Chase and they redirected me to Marriott Rewards. I called them and the lady said it happens often and Marriott Rewards will request the additional 20,000 points. Just a heads up if anybody else is in my position.

Also, the bonus points showed up really quickly (at the end of my first billing cycle).

Since the purchase of the Chase portfolio by Scotiabank this past October, I wonder if this card will be cancelled soon.

This card was not part of the portfolio.

From what I've heard, all credit cards from Chase were heading to Scotiabank, not just Sears Mastercard. This was a similar move when MBNA accounts were sold to TD. I could be wrong, but I don't know why Chase Canada would stay in the credit card business in Canada with such a low volume, you can't even apply for a Chase card on their website anymore...

Has anyone applied via http://www.marriottrewards.com/cdnelitedm after the full switchover? Does it work still?

Thanks.

Okay - thanks. Please let us know if you get approved. I'm trying to churn the card before they change anything.

Regardless of whether it was purchased or not, I'd imagine that Chase/Scotiabank would be very kind in negotiations with Marriott to keep the card around.

With the (possible) SPG merger, I'm sure AMEX (AMEX SPG) and Chase/Scotiabank (Chase Marriott) will be going head to head to keep their portfolios, and perhaps acquire the other one.

Although in Canada, the SPG AMEX is worthless compared to the US one.

Surprise surprise, the card showed up on Friday for my wife. I panicked a bit when I saw the previous post about not being able to register through chase directly, as I wanted to wait a few months before my wife reapplied. She had 45 days between cancellation and re-applying. So the card showed up, no night was deposited (as expected), but the 15 nights didn't arrive either. I don't remember people saying if they received the 15 extra CC nights in their Marriott account on a second application...

Sounds like you just got the card back with none of the signup bonuses ?

Hi Everyone. What is the shortest amount of time someone has churned this card and got the Annual Fee Waived, and 50,000 points (and potentially even the free night).

I see around a year in most successful cases.

Thoughts? Thanks.
