So those with existing Chase credit cards cannot receive the bonus? or just if you already have a Chase Freedom card?

I think it's only if you already have a Freedom card, but I can't say for sure.

oooh nice. im gonna finally ditch my citicard dividend platinum select.

 

[ungsunghero]

Wow...nice find!

(assuming the bonus applies to new Chase Freedom cardholders, and not Chase cardholders)

Thanks Op! A free $250 plus a good rewards program is a hot deal!

 

[udonoogen]

wait it looks like you have to EARN $200 in rebates and then you get an extra $50. or am i just reading the fine print wrong?

"Receive $250 after your first purchase"

This makes it seem like you get it right away.

Tempting..I'd need more specifics about how you get the $250 though..

 

[ungsunghero]

I called Chase's application hotline twice, and both times the rep told me that you had to earn $200 in rebates in order to request a check for $250.

I'll give them another call tomorrow and see what they say.

Also, both reps said that the "existing cardmembers/accounts" clause referred to existing Chase Freedom cardholders only.

 

[udonoogen]

well, i applied. some people on sd and fw were getting instantly approved. i suppose i'm not cool enough. if i hear anything about 250, ill accept the offer. does anyone know anything about chase customer service? i love citibank but 3% is much better than 2%

 

[flashbacck]

Does anyone know how the rewards are returned with this card? Are the rewards credited to your account the next billing statement, or do you have to reach $X before they distribute the reward?

 

[udonoogen]

i dont know about chase, but with citibank all you have to do is click on "request reward check" and confirm. then you get a nice check in the mail.

 

[rmrfhomeoops]

Okay, after clicking ont he receive $250 after your first purchase.

*You will receive $200 in bonus rebate which can be redeemed for a $250 check. Please allow 6 to 8 weeks after your first purchase....

So that means they give you a $200 in bonus rebate after your first purchase. Because once you accumulate $200 bonus rebate using this cc, Chase will give you another $50 on top of it, thereby giving you a total of $250 in rebate that you can redeem.

On the card I have already it was a pain canceling the Identity Protection Plan that they automatically signed me up for...got it on the 3rd call though after a week.

Get your spam outta here.

 

[TowerShield]

Well I got approved. I guess we will see if this deal was legit in a few months.

 

[Reckoner]

With the chase freedom card, once you receive $200 in rebates, they give you a bonus $50.

With this deal, they start you out with $200 in rebates after the first purchase, plus the $50 bonus for accumulating $200 in rewards.

 

[origami]

That means we have to use the credit card for at least $200 to get a $200 rebate, and then we can click a link to get a check of $250, which includes the $200 rebate?

 

[Fraggable]

I got instant approval!

I don't know what the confusion is here, the terms are perfectly clear on the site. The $250 rewards check can be mailed 6-8 weeks after the first purchase. I think you're all getting the terms of this promotion confused with the regular rewards programs terms.
