I just found out about this when I went to do my annual couple of K EQM bump from the chase choices. I need < 600 this year if my ~$1000 in PQMs post from November ticket purchases.
I'm going to be supremely pissed if I lose my status over this. 11 years as an elite, 9 as a 1P and 2 as 2P/silver, and to lose it over this failure to communicate.
Any good workarounds or last minute suggestions? Begging/pleading to either Chase or MP? I've spent over $40,000 on the card this year, so it's not like I barely use it. My annual fee was just charged this month (Dec) and not paid yet, so I'm actually in a position to cancel the card if making such a threat is likely to help.
That they didn't send a personalized email, especially to cardholders who have used this benefit over the last few years, is outrageous.

Warning to others: Chase PQMs from united.com purchases may not be posting
Hopefully a fix for my issue and a warning to others finding themselves in the same boat.
I just manually added up my miles for the year, and I've only received 80 PQM for my Chase (old visa signature) united.com purchases in January (an award-ticket-fee). There's way more than the 1,500 PQMs I need from united.com purchases that haven't been credited, and I know for sure that text is still in the Chase terms because I just checked.
So it looks like I need to call Chase or MP and will hopefully get a reprieve from this without having to buy pricey PQMs or spend the holidays doing an overpriced MR.

Look for "Chase PQM Bonus On United.Com Spend"
Note spend after Oct 1 is not yet reflected in the details portion of the statement but may already be in the YTD totals.
Chase is the correct party and using their secure online e-massaging system is the most effective way to handle this.

Hello all,
I apologize if this isn't the right thread, but seemed to be the closest one for my question.....
If I purchase a revenue ticket on UA.com and then use the Chase choices program for a statement credit, will I still earn PQD's on the purchase?
I assume the answer is yes, that I will earn both PQMs and PQD's because it's a paid ticket and the fact that I'm using my Chase points on the back end has no affect on PQD's, but I am hoping someone can confirm this for sure. Thanks in advance!
