British Airways 100K Offer is Back

Longer than others.  Chase has to confirm your FF# with BA.  Then they get around to making your account.

Once it's confirmed you can request expedited shipping, usually arrives within a day or two.

You have to request expedited shipping AFTER they confirm with BA, otherwise it won't be expedited even if they say it will.

Leant it the hard way, waited over a week, called in, and rep said it was a new rule that it can only be expedited after confirming, and previous rep may have not been aware of it.

Chase is giving me a hard time on this card too. Don't think it's just the UR cards.

I personally never thought there was a difference.  Will try INK in 2 months to prove my theory .

Many off branded approvals with 5+ cards/24 month history, I'm not sure I've seen one UR approval with a 5+/24 month history, I'd love your theory to distroy this nightmare... but I'm afraid your theory is a bubble.

 Got one Ink plus, and  one  CSP  Feb 2015 , after that Ritz Carlton personal ,Marriot and UA  BIZ, and after that  BA and  UA PERSONAL.
  Didn't try Ink because I was too tired. 
 Adds up to 7 using my Math , and expect more before years end 

What theory is that  ?  FYI I don't add add up 5 in 24, and  if you mean 5 UR cards in 24 months , blew thru that also . 

Tired again
Good Night

Not sure what exactly your theory is... But my wife just got declined with the official reason being more than 5 in 2 years. They actually spelled that reason out, where in the past they have just written "too much credit" or " too many inquiries". It's definitely real.

I'm not sure what you're saying. You don't show any records of having been approved for any UR earning cards after having gotten 5 cards in the past 24 months, after the new rule kicked in (around June, iirc). Your theory is that people are being rejected for applying when they're too tired?

No offense but I'm not sure what you're blowing, this 24/5 rule wasn't yet around when you were last approved for a UR card back in Feb. not your style

Data point point: just got approved for ink plus. Card number 8 in the last 24 months.

[Ephraimh]

Nice.
But the fact that you

never yet cancelled a card with Chase

and it was an

auto

approval, pretty much darkens every bit of light your data point brought..
