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.)

Not sure this is the right place to ask this but I did a transfer from UR to Ritz yesterday and the points still didn't post in the Ritz account,  has anyone ever done this? Has it taken this long?

I closed my Ritz card about a year ago. Lounge Club card expiring in February. Does Ritz usually cancel the LC card or i can use the Lounges until expiration date?

That works.
I booked the seat upgrades with my flight. On my credit card it comes all together as one purchase. Is it possible to call in and receive the credit for that? It doesn't make sense.
a) is this okay and can i call up?
b) does it usually come up separately? and if a) is no should i just retry this; and if no, should i just cancel, rebook and do seat upgrades afterwards

Call and see if they'll credit you, if they won't, redo it and purchase the seats separately.

Shouldnt need to redo. If there's any issue they'll ask to email them confirmation of the purchase.

You can say what you think when you think what you say.

They can't report it if the cc is closed.

These days you get it back within 6 months. That's more than enough time to do spend and get the certificate posted.
