Marriott Rewards Card

[menachem_m]

Bump.
Anyone knows this?

[ethana]

Will I get approved for 2 marriott credit cards, if I apply at the same time for them?
Thanks

I thought there is a min post count to start a new thread?

I just got the following Marriott Visa sign-up offer:

•   60,000 bonus points* after you spend $1,000 in the first 3 months from account opening
•   1 FREE night stay* (Category 1-4) after account approval
Apply today and as a Premier Cardmember, you'll also receive:
•   1 additional FREE night stay (Category 1-5) every year after your account anniversary date*
•   Unlimited rewards accumulation including:
•   5 points for every $1 spent at over 3,600 Marriott® properties, now including our exclusive luxury hotel partner,
The Ritz-Carlton®*
•   2 points for every $1 spent on airline tickets when purchased directly with the airline, and at car rental agencies & restaurants*
•   1 point for every $1 spent on purchases anywhere else*
•   Your points don't expire as long as you make purchases on your credit card or otherwise remain active in the Marriott Rewards program
•   No foreign transaction fees† and enjoy global acceptance with
Chip and Signature technology
•   15 Credits toward your next Elite membership level every year after your account anniversary*
•   1 additional Elite Credit for every $3,000 you spend on the card in purchases*

Is this a good sign-up deal?

I got 50K offer so this seems good.

There should definitely be a Marriott thread. There are tons of new threads about the card with just 1 question asked and like 1 answer. Then it dies, till someone else starts a new thread to ask their Q.

[Marco Polo]

You cam SM Chase saying you saw an offer for 70,000. Worked for me with no issue.

[Mutty]

Wanted some advice. I got a card from Marriott in the mail about getting the premier credit card, spend 1000 in 3 months and get 70,000 points. I already have 20,000 so that would bring me to 90,000. (I believe it's the same offer on their website without getting a card in the mail). Anyway, is it worth getting the "hit" and getting the card and miles? I didn't notice this in any other thread. If it is, please point me in the right direction. Thanks.

[AI-TRAVEL]

+1. was wondering same thing.

[Mutty]

I left out that I'm a silver elite as well. Again, any advice on the above? (Got the silver elite via match)

Don't remember how I matched - it was all Dan's fault! I spent a week just matching where I could based on threads hereabouts.
As far as rooms, or gelt, etc, that's why I'm asking for advice. Should I take a hit for this card and end up with 90,000 or just save up for the next great AA or Starwoods promotion. Is it worth it? I also liked the way they sent me a "special" offer in the mail that is identical to the one everyone can get online at their site.

Received the cc from marriott with the free category 1 to 4 room which is good for 6 months.
Will not be anywhere but israel which only has 1 category 6 hotel.
Is there anyway to trade up or what else can I do

[Jay s]

With the recent new rewardsplus program 114k marriot transfer into 50k united
So this could be a good way to stock up on united points by signing up
For the united 55k and the marriot for another 30k in a 2 bm

Hi everyone.

I have 50k Marriott points. Can anyone tell me how I can get the biggest bang for my buck out of them? I am not interested in staying at any hotels any time soon..

[Jay s]

@chamdena
You could transfer to united

You should match to the 70K. SM Chase saying you saw the offer...

YMMV. On the phone they wouldn't match to 70K offer, but would match to 60K.

I had no issue with SM. They seem nicer through that.

SM worked! They said they'll add the extra 10K to match to the 70K offer! Thanks Marco
