You can check your activation status at this site: https://calendar.chasebonus.com/
It will tell you if you were activated for previous quarters too.

Just so all of you know, even though the official last day to activate the 5% bonus is on the 14th, if you call in they could do that till the 22nd.

I'm not saying you're wrong. Chances are if someone called in late they would give him the points. I'm just saying since it isn't too late I just double checked to make sure its been activated.

I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Spent $1k on airline ticket, statement closed with only 1k points. Isnt the bonus supposed to post straight away with statement close? Does it sometimes come later (should I call and try to double dip?)

Typically the 5% takes an extra statement.
Though you should register again just to make sure it went through!
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Disappointed in the lack of supermarkets.
Other than that seems fine to me

guess weak for me, no groceries (though now that I got the BCP that mitigates it), 2 quarter is pretty useless to me. gas and amazon are nice but realistically don't spend $1,500 a quarter on gas (i know, I know, gift cards  :) )

I bet Chase is getting paid for these. It's nice, but if they start doing this instead of categories, it will diminish our selection.

Gas stations are awesome.  Gift cards to grocery or tons of other places!
