My wife just got an email offer from CO for 50K signup bonus

Question: Can i (and anyone else on this forum) use the targeted link to signup??
Any catch here?

This is a partial quote from the offer details:
* 50,000 bonus miles after your first purchase
* A waiver of the $85 annual fee for your first year.
* 10,000 bonus miles annually when you spend $25,000 on your Card.
* Two miles per $1 spent on tickets purchased directly from Continental.
* One mile per $1 spent on all other purchases
* Redeem miles for car rental and hotel rewards in addition to
flights — a Cardmember exclusive.
* First checked bag free every time you fly when you purchase your tickets with your Card for flights operated by Continental only (a savings of up to $50 per round trip).*
* Two Presidents Club® passes ($100 value) every Cardmember anniversary.*

ONEPASS PLUS CARD: You will first be considered for a World MasterCard. If you do not qualify for that product, you will automatically be considered for a Platinum MasterCard, which has different fees, benefits and credit availability. For pricing details, please see Pricing and Terms. For benefits details, please read your Credit Card benefits materials which will be mailed after your account is established.

No, it's targeted to her.
Has she never had a CO MC before?

Ya, for some reason I never get targeted for these offers

YMMV. Assuming you have the same last name it may just work. Let us know what happens.

sorry for the ignorance. can you please explain?

beej · « **Reply #9 on:** January 25, 2011, 01:46:03 PM »

its Weird. cuz it seems its a targeted offer, yet my wife got the email offer this morning and now i just got it.
Unless its a coincidence.

elikay · « **Reply #10 on:** January 25, 2011, 01:51:37 PM »

Basically you earn points for different activities. A CC app got you 30 points last time around which redeems for 5000 miles.

You both probably meet the same targeted profile.
Probably going after a specific geographic area, a certain type of flyer, and no previous CO MC.

Anyway PM me the link if you don't mind. I'd like to see what happens if I try signing in for it.
