For example, if you met the minimum spend for the sign up bonus in the first month the card was opened, the statement closing date was probably October or November 2016. If you met the minimum spend in the 3rd month that the card was opened, then the bonus may have been awarded in January or even February - again, depends on the statement closing date. You can check your first few statements in that account to know for sure.

how does this increase to $1200 work? Thanks.
I would say hyperbole
Bottonline. Apply on your own and walk away with a cool 80K points.
I've been trying to do the same and they can't help but they didn't say anything about application would be stopped if not eligible. Sounds more like if you don't qualify you'll get a card anyway and be sol on the bonus. I logged into my chase account but can't seem to see any old/closed accounts so how in the world can we really check eligibility?

2. After applying message received was, "Thank you for your request. We need to review your request a little longer. We will let you know of our decision as soon as possible. Thank you for choosing the Chase Sapphire Preferred Card."
When saving this as a pdf for future reference, the pdf program automatically named the page saved/file as "Decision Pending - Receive by Mail". Obviously the pdf program didn't make this up on their own. It must on Chase's web code language.
a) So, the question is whether "Decision Pending - Receive by Mail" is an indication of a rejection.
b) How likely is the application to be approved if the applicant never had a credit card before and is currently only an authorized user on another person's credit card?
Secondly, what is your goal here? Just to get the 80k and then run? I mean, I guess you can do that, but this card really isn't designed for someone that doesn't plan to use it's perks. And the trap a lot of people fall into is that they get one of these 'premium' cards and start to use them the way everyone says is the optimal way to use them, but they forget that the only way that works is if you fit the category of whom the card is designed for. Which is not 'low-income, doesn't spend much' folks. It's often a recipe for disaster.

b. Chase doesn't like being a person's 1st credit card, particularly for the more premium cards. Being an AF doesn't hurt, but may not be enough to satisfy Chase in that way.

Should I or should I not do it? That is the question.
