Since March 12th it’s been possible to get the following sign up bonuses if you’re a business managed client (I believe this requires business revenue of at least $500,000, but possibly seven figures is required):
Reader PlanetPotato recently applied for this card & bonus and was given a pamphlet showing an end date of 08/27/17 for both of these offers.
Just keep in mind that some people have successfully gotten this bonus without being a business managed customer.
Is there a way to find the contact info for BRM locally? I can’t seem to locate any on the chase website for Austin.
I went to chase branch in houston, The banker showed me that only $300 bonus on ink cash & $800 bonus on ink preffered is available.
I think i need to catch on Business Relationship Manager……..to get $500 & $1000 bonus offers
That’s correct.
Thax dear,
You are always there to guide…
love you….god bless you……
DP via SMS: I regret to to inform that we don’t have a similar offer
available for your account and we can’t match the one you
requested. The offer is only valid for Relationship
Managers and managed clients on account acquired at retail
branch. We know this is not the answer you hoped for and
we are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you.
Should I try SMS again?
btw, I applied in-branch, not with RM, and got 80k/no annual fee waive offer.
I did the same offer, and I was denied via SM as well. I’m thinking of heading in branch and speaking with a BRM.
Please let us know how that goes, thanks!
I just came back from the branch I originally applied at. Apparently, it was a relationship manager who put in the application after all. However, the person I spoke to today didn’t know about matching. He talked to someone on the phone and said that I’d hear back in 7-10 business days. I’m not exactly hopeful, but we’ll see what happens.
Chase credited me with the 20k points in difference!
I got CSR no problem, visited a branch in NJ, no local branch here in Massachusetts, I have no other chase business just credit card(s) got it instantly on the bankers screen, at the time I was like 24/24 few credit cards ever few months, how did I slide through?
Few days ago I signed up online for Ink P Reserve, shows pending? likely not going to get it but still hoping.
Side note: Since 19 years old to 31 only one credit card until I learned about the game, I pay all my spend with multiple payments each month sometimes force paying pending charges, maybe that’s how I got such good luck with the banks?
I make decent income less $75k, credit score just (under) 700 but have $250k+ In credit
Thanks to this blog and some others I learned how to harvest points to take dream vacations thank you DOC
How do I figure what’s my x/24?
Check your records! If you don’t keep those (you should) pull your credit reports.
Yes. I do pull credit reports. But how can I be sure my x is what chase thinks is my x?
With so much downgrading, upgrading, product change, my credit reports are a mess. I can’t believe a human on recon line counts all that in a minute while I am on hold. They must be doing something automated.
I wish there was a website that said your x is this and it was in agreement with what chase thinks my x is.
Does credit karma etc give a number like that?
Yes, they automate the process. No CK doesn’t give a number like that. Downgrading/upgrading/product change doesn’t affect your 5/24. Based on when an account is opened (you keep your account history when you downgrade or PC).
seriously. i have never felt more raped by 5/24 until now… feels like a loser kid on the sidelines and cant play with everyone else… sigh…
Will, just wanted to share some personal experience in case if it would be helpful for others.
I applied for the Ink Preferred with 80K offer a week before 100K offer became available (somehow missed the post about it), but I got it at the branch (to avoid annual fee), and it just happened to be that I applied with Business Relationship Manager (without knowing it could be a plus).
When I learned about the 100K bonus, I waited a couple of weeks, called my contact at the branch (figured I can always try myself later) and asked them if they can do anything to match. My rep contacted CS himself, and got me a positive answer within minutes. As long as I meet minimum spending requirements they will deposit extra 20K points into my account. As a bonus, no annual fee since my original offer did not have one.
For the record: I applied as a sole proprietor, income is nowhere near required amounts for 100K offer, no business checking account either; also have Ink Plus & CSR; CPC but with low account balances.
Thank you for your blog!
Awesome DP, VL!
“I believe this requires business revenue of at least $500,000, but possibly six figures is required”
William, $500,000 is six figures.
He most likely means “only” six figures, as in $100,000 or more…
Nope, I meant seven
Should read seven, fixed now. Thanks Fiby!
Chase sucks with their 5/24 rule, have no value of even CPC now. Does not matter if you have 6 digit balance in their bank accounts.
Over 5/24, you will not be approved of any card, PERIOD.
MF’ers……..
Hope their CEO/President reads this….
I wish I had a 6 digit bank account and suddenly a $500-$1000 bonus credit card wouldn’t mean as much to me 🙂
Not sure why you keep mentioning “business managed client” as a requirement. Anyone who can get a BRM (Business Relationship Manager) to put in the application for them will get 100k point bonus. I never even met my BRM before she put in the application for me over the phone. I have a 1 month history with Chase and am not CPC.
Applying in branch through BRM is the only requirement for this offer.
That’s a work around and I make that fairly clear in the post.
