Ya it was for the Citi AA.  They tried denying me the card and CSR rep said it cant be overridden.  I got it overridden.

Comparing Citi to Chase is like comparing apples to oranges, but you're correct, CSRs often lie when they say something isn't possible.

Ya, I debated putting it in the Chase thread but decided to do it for the underlying premise that you have agreed with.  Otherwise totally no comparison as I am learning...

What was the reason for denial? I got denied for my AA Business Visa because they said my business was too new to evaluate. Think a supervisor could override it? How long do I have from the date of denial to get it pushed through, 30 days?

Has anyone recently requested the additional 50k? When I sm'd they told me to send a message once I meet the 3k spend and they would give me the original 50k plus an additional 50k because they valued every relationship but based on stsd's post  http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milesbuzz/1215268-extra-50k-expired-chase-sapphire-preferred-card-50k-points-76.html it looks like they are going back on their word? I'm about to hit the 3k mark and his post has me a little worried even though they already said they would give it to me.

Damn. Granted I wasn't entitled to it in the first place but it sucks to be given it and then have it taken away.

I don't think I would worry about. They honored it for me, and from what I've read, I think even if a low-level CSR denied it, if you go up to supervisors, they will honor it as promised.

Will Sapphire points be more valuable after Sept because they will be the only points that can be used with Continental? I think Dan said that somewhere.

No one knows for sure but logic would dictate that they would go up in value as MR goes slightly down.

Dan is the man. Just logged in to my chase sapphire account and my 100,000 points are there. Received the first 50k right after sending the sm and just received the next 50k after spending 3k and statement closed.

You sent a sm requesting the points?

I'm sure he did .In the 36 hour period that they were giving the additional 50K you were only getting it through SM

Yep. They shot me down. I sent an SM and they replied with the "sorry for the previous correspondence..."

I tried them too. Chase lately is giving me atitude, they are refusing to shift a credit line over and when i ask they give me this whole 7 minute interrogation questions including "why do you have so many cards" "why do you need another one" etc;. i opened 2 chase cards recently 1 in march and 1 in may.

Update: I got approved
