Click Here to get more details on this card and compare to other cards!

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.)

Come-on guys!!!
We've all seen great deals killed lately because people couldn't stop discussing them needlessly in public forums.
Please keep talk of AF very low-key and don't spell everything out!

Google is no longer public?

You know what I mean.
I'm sure there are things you don't want discussed too much even if they aren't total secrets.

The difference is, those things won't show up as the first result when Googled.

Is the $300 airline credit per 12 month period or does it reset in January?

It per calendar year, so yes it resets in January. So, you can do it now and again in Jan.

Are the seat upgrades automatically refundable once the base ticket is refundable?

True but having the information available dose not make every one knowledgeable and for example why would a guy think that its possible? there for he will never search for it

Did you discover this yourself or work for the info? Otherwise, chill out.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Closed this card and applied again 3 weeks later. Was denied because I got the bonus within the last 24 months. Seems like chase is doing that a lot recently. Has the same experience with CSP.
Does this mean all chase cards aren't churnable anymore?

I accidentally booked a nonrefundable JB for the return part of my ticket so I quickly cancelled it but why am I not seeing a full refund? Is this normal?
