Update: 6/16/15:
So I smed chase again and got the same response, denying to match to 140k. I then called Chase and got a very nice rep who tried to match it for me but was unsuccessful. It said in her system that they were only matching to 140k credit cards that were applied before April 30th. I applied May 14th. She then gave me 5k Ritz points as a courtesy and told me to try to call Ritz Rewards and ask them to replace my 2 free nights with the equivalent amount of points (probably not 140k). I did just that and the Ritz rep said she cannot do that. Blah blah.....
This really sucks <img src="http://s3.amazonaws.com/tapatalk-emoji/emoji35.png" />

Update: 3/23/15: Many recent reports of successful match to 140k offer via SM
Updated link: https://creditcards.chase.com/credit-cards/ritz-carlton-card.aspx
Standard offer is for 2 free nights at Ritz Cat 1-4 which is not too bad either.

Update 2/9/15: DEAD     
current offer  140k bonus points +$300 airline credit annual fee 395 not waived
link https://www.theritzcarltonrewardscard.com/offer140k

To get $300 airline credit call 1-855-896-2222
don't buy gift cards from Chase affiliated airlines (United, SW..)
As Chase may be able to see what you purchased

JetBlue seat upgrades and delta seat upgrades worked for me.
Airline GC are very YMMV as there are reports of chase asking for receipts.
(Seat upgrades are officially covered in the T & C.)

Even if he has extremely expensive domestic tickets at $500 each roundtrip, that's $1000. $100 off is 10% off. The CSP doesn't come close to that.
Only works for domestic?

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Yeah
I didnt realize that, I stand corrected then.

So its $100 off per booking? meaning if im booking for 8 people, I would make 4 separate reservations?

I think you can only get the savings if your name is one of the two names on the reservation.

Correct.
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

I clicked the link to the additional information and it mentions the $100 hotel credit on stays 2 nights or longer.

Not that I expect to ever use it, but is it safe to assume that this benefit is available immediately, like the ones listed in the email, despite not actually being mentioned specifically in the email?

thats not a new benefit afaik

Are you saying its an old benefit or that it doesn't apply to the old cardholders?

I don't remember seeing that, but then again, I've actually never stayed at a Ritz so it was never relevant to me.

i purchased a jetblue refundable ticket, and told chase that it's an upgrade to int class, and they told me that it comes up as a ticket, -which i played ignorant about- but as a one time courtesy they will give it, but speak to jetblue in the future.
now that it posted, is it safe to refund the ticket right away?
sorry if it was asked upthread

Why should it be different than canceling a upgrade bought on a refundable ticket?
