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.)

When do you move down your CL ?

Is this $300 airline certificate like the CSR. ??

I called about 10 days ago to get it lowered. I used 300 on AA gcs but told chase it was for transatlantic flight bag fees. Now that statement closed those two charges of 100 and 200 do show "gft fee" but I've already received travel credit back.

Did you apply for the new card or you were upgraded from old?

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

You tried?
Nope. but why would they give it to you ?!?!
You can't make up ideas, and expect chase to give to to you.

Can someone please list the top 3 benefits of this cc? On the csr thread I was surprised to see someone say that this cc offers ~$1k in signup bonus + benefits.

$300 = airline credit that you can triple dip on if you sign up at end of year? Is there any easy way to cash this benefit out?

Whats the $600 credit?

Don't know about triple dip but you can double as its per calendar year. I bought AA gc and said it was bag fees but you never know. I consider myself lucky on that credit

$600 is basically double dipping it.

$900 is certs. You can sell each one for $300 easy. $325 is going rate with ease

Isn't this a great deal of a CC to add/replace if approved/denied for the CSR? why is not the spotlight on this?

With 3 nights, and a $300 airline fee credit based on calendar year there’s no reason not to get the card now and see how much you’ll use the benefits over the next year.
