that just makes it authentic if it came from chase employee -- who cares if he is trying to get biz for chase -it is good for us to know what is at branches , I am in Europe and it is a little hard to see the offers posted in the branches--

I was told by someone at a branch in ny that --- ''yes" have the bonus offer for pre approved targeted

my question is not if have offer -- question is SM and try to get matched?? --even I after got bonus on visa and master ---- I am still in 90 day window-- how big a risk that  they will see double dip

Just applied for a Sapphire P Visa and closed down my Mastercard to get it approved. The rep informed me multiple times I would not get the sign up bonus for the Sapphire card since I already just had it.

Is he just saying that?
Did that ever happen to anyone?

What's most surprising to me is that the word "points" would even be mentioned by one of the guys moving lines/closing cards - IME those departments never communicated.

I closed down my MC to open a visa and got points in the past month or 2. I don't think you have anything to worry about but keep us posted anyway!

assume u sent a SM --I think only if chase as a policy of  "does not match targeted offers" will you get turned down --- I and many have been matched on many offers as long as within 90 days of applying , my only concern is --will they see i got the visa and mc bonus --and will this cause me a problem???

Yes I sent an SM
Well that's exactly it - I don't think they match targeted offers. I am only guessing here, but if there was a publicly available 70K offer and I just applied too early, then I'd have more luck. This was an offer that was never intended for me.

Nothing to worry about, they say it all the time. I've yet to hear of it being true.

I have sent 3 SM in the past two weeks to try and get a 50k or 70k offer match on my SP that I opened up about a month ago. I currently today sent my most recent SM again to try and push for a 70k offer. Just doing this to push and test to see if it is even remotely possible. Will update if something comes up.

So the first and second I reply I got was that the offers were no longer available and that they closed them. However, this is a much more promising response. The most recent reply was as following:

Dear btab,

Thank you for your interest in the Chase Sapphire bonus
points offer.

The 70,000 bonus points offer was made through a small
direct mail test and is non-transferable. The Offer Code
and Invitation Number included in the mailing can only be
applied to the recipient?s account. If you are not listed
as the addressee of the mailing, we will be unable to
apply the offer to your account. I understand you may be
disappointed and I am sincerely sorry for any confusion.
Please know that we will consider reviewing the terms of
other offers you receive in the future.

If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.

Thank you,

Teresa Rodrigues
Customer Service Specialist
