I had to stop by my local Chase branch yesterday to take care of some everyday banking and as I was waiting to speak to a banker there, I noticed that they had brochures out for all their current credit cards. Most of them were the same as what you can find publicly online, but as I was perusing international hotel of calgary them, I came across international hotel of calgary offers for each of their United co-branded cards, the MileagePlus Explorer and the Club card that have bonuses as high as the best targeted offers out there and both of which have their first year s annual fee waived a $395 value in the case of the Club card!
This offer is nearly twice as good as the public offer which is just 30,000 miles when you spend $1,000 in 3 months and almost as good as the targeted offer I got in on during my app-o-rama international hotel of calgary back in March where I got 55,000 miles for spending $1,000 in 3 months and adding an authorized user.
The best part is, I asked a banker in the branch if you needed to be a Chase customer to apply for these and she said no! All you have to to is walk into a branch and ask to apply for one of these and then you ll have to sit with a banker who will input the application info for you into their system. So if you ve been interested international hotel of calgary in either of these two cards but have been waiting for a higher bonus to come along, I would suggest you find the nearest Chase branch international hotel of calgary to you and apply for one of these or try logging onto United.com and checking to see if you ve been directly targeted for either offer.

Yeah, I ve found that most customer service folks at Chase will give you the deals I ve seen on the internet international hotel of calgary if I just chat with them. What I didn t know is that they d *beat* internet deals. Good post
I already international hotel of calgary have Priority Pass via AMEXplat so club access is a done deal for me. 50,000 points though, that s tempting. Chase has some very lucrative rewards international hotel of calgary programs, Sapphire and Ink come to mind. The trick for me is they will need to adjust my limits to reach an acceptable max overall limit with which they feel comfortable.
The 50,000 miles is huge because it s only 60,000 for roundtrip international airfare. I just applied for the Explorer card last week so I am going to see if Chase can bump me up from the 30,000 with $1k MSR to 50,000 and $2k MSR.
Just walked international hotel of calgary into my local Chase and walked out with instant approval and a free rush order on the card. And the banker called the credit card people to confirm that I will get my 50,000 points even though I had (and canceled) the United Mileage Plus card back in 2008 (not the Explorer card). Booyah!
However (check with your accountant), if you isolate international hotel of calgary *ALL* usage on a credit card only for business purposes, and keep receipts, and pay the balances with your business checking account, there is likely international hotel of calgary not a problem (particularly for sole proprietors or S-Corp shareholders). The key is to not mix personal and business purchases on the same card. And again, check with your accountant.
If you own a small business, where you get in trouble with the IRS, is not isolating business-only charges on a single card and, of course, not being able to provide receipts. Generally, the IRS does not care how the card was issued. They care about whether the charges are on the card are for legit biz expenses, and paid by the business checking account.
international hotel of calgary Here s what Chase told me, Please contact us after you have spent $1,000 in the first three months your account is open and the 30,000 bonus miles have posted to your account. At that time, we will add the additional 20,000 bonus miles to match the newer offer.
I sent chase a secure message asking to match my original 30k offer for $1k spend (from March) to the 50k offer (base miles). It took 3 days for them get back to me, but they matched it, and said the extra 20,000 miles will be deposited in my UAL account on the next billing cycle
be aware, this looks like a no-churn offer. i ve had a milage plus awards card for 10 years. i went to a branch and they couldn t guarantee that i d get the bonus if i opened an explorer international hotel of calgary card because i got a bonus when i opened my current card. 10 years ago.
*edit* just got off the phone with united s credit line, they told me that i can still get the 30k miles offer if i open an explorer card, but could only get the 50k miles if there was an offer sent to me.
Thanks for all your tips. I had the old United Mileage Plus card and could not access the 50,000 mile offer through any outlet phone, website, etc. I even called and specifically mentioned this offer with no luck. Once I canceled the old card, two days later the 50,000 mile offer appeared once I logged into my Mileage Plus account.
I almost pulled the trigger but was then looking for award flights and proceeded to the purchase page where a banner ad popped up for the 50,000 mile offer plus first year free plus a $50 statement international hotel of calgary credit. I replicated this same sequence of events login, international hotel of calgary search for award travel, move through process to page where one would buy the ticket and see banner ad with $50 credit (not linked international hotel of calgary to buying award ticket). Applied and was approved last night didn t end up booking award ticket yet either.
The information on those sheets in old it is from November 2012 and hasn t been changed. I applied for the UAL Club Card in January with the $95.00 statement credit. My banker at Chase was able to get me the additional $300.00 refunded. Immediately after, my branch had changed their sheet to reflect the same information on the website.
Great advice. I not only was able to get the higher amount for a credit card application that I had seen, but they were also able to tell me if I was pre-approved, run the info quickly and get me a determination international hotel of calgary in less than 5 minutes. THen when I was approved, I asked if they could expedite the card to me as i had some charges of large nature in the next week and they took care of that as well, getting it to me in 2-3 business days. Thanks for the heads up of going into a branch.
Well, it s 3 months international hotel of calgary later, and my chase branch claims ignorance of the offer, so I called international hotel of calgary Chase and they also said that the branches are not authorized to give any offer above what the website offers, which is 30,000 miles. Please international hotel of calgary tell me I m wrong!
I put my wife as an authorized user .. ..when SHE USES the CARD, would WE both get points, or me, or just her or do the points get pooled into one lump? Second question, does it matter WHAT she/me/we use the card for? Gas, food, clothes, etc.
TPG, I absolutely international hotel of calgary love your site and your vast knowledge and helpful info. Question for you: I have not missed a payment on my credit cards for the past 4 years, but due to a move to Tokyo in September I missed the first payment on my United Mileage Plus Card. I applied when the 50,000 bonus was still available via applying at my local Chase bank and intend to pay off the full balance before my next payment international hotel of calgary is due. Do you know if missing a payment will make me ineligible to receive the 50,000 United mile bonus upon hitting the 2k spend requirement? Any info or advice international hotel of calgary is greatly appreciated. Thank you again for your amazing site!
Worked perfectly. Walked into Chase branch, sat with Private Banker, didn t have a previous account. They pulled up offer on their computer in about 2 minutes, and i was out of there in 15 mins. It was titled United international hotel of calgary MileagePlus Explorer $95 annual fee 50K Mile Bonus This wasn t the business one. Not sure if i got better international hotel of calgary treatment because it was a Private Client branch (lots of suits running around), but it was a very pleasant experience. It was the Sammamish WA branch btw. Im guessing you can probably international hotel of calgary call them and apply over the phone. Ask for Don Norton or Michael Varga. I have absolutely nothing to do w Chase, and until now not even a fan. Might have to rethink that
The 50k offer still exists, international hotel of calgary I signed up yesterday. Most of the local associates won t know about it as people rarely walk in to do credit apps, so you have to show them on the flip side of the desk mat, or have them search for it on the computer.
Unfortunately, I didn t hear about the 50k offer until AFTER I signed up for this card with the 30k offer. I called Chase and asked the first representative international hotel of calgary if it was true the the 50k offer existed at the branch offices. She said it was only offered by invitation. I hung up and called again and repeated my question to the second rep. He said that since I inquired, he would note my account and that once I hit the $2000 spending requirement, I should call back and they would credit the extra 20,000 miles. Let s cross our fingers!
Just tried it again for my wife and even though they still had the place mat with the offer, it wasn t available for the rep to use, and when she called was told the 50k offer is only good for pre-screened applicants.
After reaching the $2000 spending requirement, I called back and the rep told me that he would contact some department and they would credit the extra 20,000 to my account. I just received this notice in the mail which confirms this. Doesn t hurt to ask!
