Ugh! I just activated my Plus card last night and started on my quest to break 110k by the end of December.

I got a call from Chase fraud that I need to send in my SS card now. What does this mean? The rep was not too bright and could not explain to me what the trigger was.

Nothing to worry about.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Nothing to worry about.

Thanks for the reassurance, Dan. Truly.

Thing is... I wasn't that worried... but still... there's something else... they say it will take 7-14 business days to "reinstate" the card. I'm already down to the wire here. Now I will have to do all my SW spending on my other card.

I dont know if it will work.  Check somewhere in the terms of the points.  look up about transferring from one person to another.  See if family members  accounts are combinable. 
 If not, get a second one for you.  Even later in the year as long as they all post in 2014.

Yep, only delayed an hour and the flight took half hour faster than estimated. So all in all - pretty good, bh!

Waited too long to close my card, so they won't refund the AF. Rep said the 60 days is a hard date unless you never used the card before,

Anyone have any recon luck with this?

On the topic of closing the cards, my 60 days is on Jan 5th and I'd be getting the bonus with my statement close on the Jan 15th. Could I close the card (I'd much rather downgrade, is that an option?) on Jan 5th and still get the bonus + companion pass etc.?

Thanks!

That's a good Q. Usually it's only 100% safe to close a card once the points have posted.
