*december sorry
If you use it after the statement closes you would get your 2017 statement already.

Re: Travel credit posted after statement date
« Reply #183 on: December 13, 2016, 01:39:32 PM »
My travel credit (for Porter Airlines gift certificate) posted on the 9th, for a purchase initiated on the 7th. My statement closed on the 8th and credit is posting to 2017, not 2016. Rep says everyone is complaining about similar thing but they can't do anything.

Suggestions anyone?

My card arrived today with closing date in January. I called and asked to move my closing date to 12/25. Was told they cannot make an earlier closing date. Only later?  Anybody had success with earlier date? Should I huca?

I belive this isn't true. If IIRC Dan had posted that he has had a cc close 10 days after he got it. I received mine today and after calling and confirming thru SM I got a statement close Dec 28. Due date Jan 25. So it doesn't hurt to huca.

Write that the terms were confusing and you just got approved but didn't have enough time to get the TC, be creative, give them a sob story.
ETA : You might want to try moving your statement forward a few days first and see if they'll let you do that.
This is what Chase wrote back :-( Any help with a response would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Thank you for re-contacting Chase regarding the Travel
Credit on your Sapphire Reserve account.

Customer feedback is an important opportunity for our
organization to review processes and service and make
appropriate changes. For that reason, we always welcome
and appreciate feedback from our customers. I regret to
hear that the service you received was not at the level
you expected. Thank you for taking the time to share your
experience with us, and we sincerely regret the
inconvenience this matter has caused you.

The $300 travel credit maximum is explained on the
application that you applied for. If you apply for a Chase
Sapphire Reserve rewards credit card account, the
information below shows under "Offer Details" before you
agree to submit the application. It does explain that the
$300 travel credit begins with your account open date
through your December statement.

Although we appreciate your loyalty, we ask that you trust
that this decision is the same for all members. We feel
that adhering to the same policy for all members is the
best way to remain fair and consistent. Regrettably, since
the terms of the offer were agreed to prior to submitting
the application, I am unable to honor your request and we
are unable to take further action regarding the $300
travel credit.
If you are trying to get my attention/assistance and I'm not responding, please feel free to PM me. :)

Thank you! I tried an SM and they said no problem

I requested the 28th of December as a closing date

Now I am unclear if that date is okay
I see elsewhere dan says the statement has to print in December?

Will a dec 28th close print in December?

Or do I get the credit so long as the charge posts in the December statement?

Thanks

Charges need to post before 12/28 with a 12/28 closing date.
"LESS IS MORE" It is the cumulative effect that kills deals!!! How many times do I have to say this?  >:(

As far as I know it's two different ways of saying the same thing.

If you cancel your EZ-Pass you can request to be refunded by ACH. FYI, Mass EZ Pass - no fees for anything :-)

If your December statement already printed then it's for 2017.

Anyone with experience on hotels.com gift cards? Friend of mine said they were coding as business?
