Just wanted to let everyone know I too received my $150.00 credit on 1/23/2007 or about 30days after signing up for the card.

It's obvious that they just do the credit on a certain day and everyone that qualifies gets it on that day, no matter when they made the purchase. So it could end up being a few months or a few days.

Its been a month and I still don't know if I'm even approved for the card, I guess that means I probably am not

Has anyone cancelled their card yet?

Is it as simple as calling and telling them you don't need it anymore or are their strings attached?

eg. Do they ask you why you signed up for it and then cancelled a month later?

I doubt they would ask that, but that would hurt your credit score much more than keeping the card open and throwing it in a drawer if you dont want to use it

Wow, you didn't even read the details when you signed up? :confused:

Well, anyway, you have until March 4th I believe it is.

I was approved couple days ago and they gave me my card details online to use. Said card will come in 2 weeks.

I went to chase.com to register, but it doesnt let me. Says unable to process the request when i try to create a profile using my ssn and card account number. Any ideas?
