I mentioned the offer to my wife who is a Chase employee and she pulled it up on her internal system. It had a note that they had additional offers if you apply in a branch. You get the 100k points, 1st year AF waived, and a $50 grocery credit. So essentially an extra $145 for applying in the branch.
Wow. No brainer if you are eligible for the bonus.
I signed up for 80k offer just last week. Can I get chase to make it 100k?

Not everyone lives close enough to a branch to make it worth it if it's true information.

Has anyone succeeded in this in recent times. I know that Chase used to do this (match new increased bonus if requested shortly after opening anew account). However, recent reports on this seem negative.

It is all guessing.

The previous deal was 80k points + $50 grocery credit. Additionally applying at a branch waived the annual fee.

So I don't think there is any chance the $50 grocery credit will be available in branch in 2 weeks. People are assuming the waived fee will be available again, which I'd say is a pretty good chance.

Quote from terpnation03 :
I have a CSP and its been over 4 years since my bonus. Should I just outright apply to a Freedom card to get that bonus and then downgrade my CSP to another Freedom so that I can then apply for this card on a new account? Or does downgrading make me eligible for a Freedom bonus (highly doubt it though)?

I guess applying for a Freedom card would count against me for 5/24 but that would only be 1. Any thoughts? My plan was to get the CSP in branch at 80k points and then in 13 months product switch to a CSR. I currently have 90K UR points
If I understand your situation correctly, you currently hold a CSP and no Freedom account, and you are trying to fashion a way of maximizing bonuses by applying for both a new CSP (100K bonus) and a new Freedom ($200 bonus). It has been more than 4 years since you were awarded the last CSP bonus.

The simple answer is "yes" you may downgrade the CSP to a Freedom card, then apply for a new CSP to get the 100K bonus. And you can apply for a new Freedom card to get the $200 Freedom bonus.

But there are a lot of details to attend to:

- You need to select which Freedom type of account you wish to downgrade to: Freedom Flex or Freedom Unlimited. They are both the same except the Flex has a 5% rotating categories and the Unlimited gives 1.5% back on every purchase.

- The CSP downgrade has to be recorded into Chase's system before applying for a new CSP card. No one really knows how long this takes. Some say 2-3 days, others have said that it takes a month. (My suggestion is to call Chase Customer Service after 3 days and ask them whether their system still shows your CSP account as being active.)

- You need to ensure that you qualify under Chase's 5/24 policy (maximum of 5 new credit cards in the past 24 months).

- You need to evaluate whether your credit score is sufficient. (I'd suggest that your credit score be at least in the mid-700s to be comfortable in applying for a new CSP card.)

- You need to evaluate whether you can meet the minimum $4K spend requirement (or the minimum $4K + $500 if you apply for both new CSP and Freedom cards simultaneously).

- Already having one Freedom account (for the CSP downgrade), you should evaluate whether it is worth the $200 bonus to open up another Freedom account. (I already have a Freedom Flex account and the benefits associated with it. For me, opening up a Freedom Ultimate account for a $200 bonus isn't worth the administrative hassle and the potential 5/24 impacts.)

- When opening up the new Freedom account, you will need to choose whatever other type is left after the downgrade. If you chose the Flex for CSP downgrade, then you would need to open up a new Unlimited.

Provided you have met the conditions stated above, you can have two applications (new CSP and new Freedom) submitted to Chase at the same time.

Anyone else downgraded their Chase Reserve to a freedom and were able to apply for this Preferred with success? I downgraded my reserve this past Fri and still getting denied. (I'm well past the 48 months, 5 yrs with Reserve) Read it could take a few days for the system to recognize?

YMMV If you recently applied for the 80K sign-up, keep trying customer service.

Yesterday, I was able to get through with the 100K adjustment after calling customer service a few times and requesting an escalation and case review.

Chase "cannot provide writing" so I have to take their word for it, but keep trying I guess.

Any idea why the new account bonus is not showing up anywhere on chase.com after I got approved? Does it take time to show up?

When should I cancel the card or how long should I keep it open? How much will it drop my credit score for canceling and will it also affect other things too? Thanks
When should you cancel the card and how long should you keep it open?

If you have redeemed your UR points, then you can cancel the card immediately.

If you haven't redeemed the UR points and you don't have a Reserve card, then you'll want to redeem the points at $0.0125 per point using Chase Sapphire Preferred's Pay Yourself Back Program or book travel through Ultimate Rewards Travel. The PayYourself Back Program ends in September 2021.

Alternatively, instead of direct point redemption, you can also exchange points with travel partners. (United and Hilton have some great deals on business class travel and hotel rooms that far exceed $0.02 per point.) That's if you plan on doing any travel in the near future.

If you have UR points and you don't have any other Chase cards to redeem them, then you may not want to close your Chase Sapphire Preferred card. You need to make this decision within 30 days of when Chase charges you the annual fee in order to get a complete refund of the charge. (It's actually 30 days if downgrading the account and 45 days if closing the account, but just figure on 30 days to keep it simple.)

See comments below about downgrading the account, rather than closing the account.

How much will it drop your credit score for canceling and will it also affect other things?

Opening a new credit card will have a number of impacts on your credit score;
- Hard credit pull.
- New account.
- Decrease average credit history age.
- Decrease debt-to-credit utilization ratio.
- Change credit mix ratio.
Typically, these impacts range from 5-10 points and gradually disappear within six months.

Opening up a new credit card may affect whether you are eligible for other credit cards down the road. The 5/24 is the most frequently cited rule. There are other banks that apply similar rules.
https://upgradedpoints.com/credit...ank-rules/

Closing a new credit card, on the other hand, has negligible impacts on your credit score.
- There is no direct impact to your credit score. Unlike accounts opened, the credit bureaus make no evaluation based on "accounts closed".
- Increase your debt-to-credit utilization ratio, because of the loss of the card's credit limit. (However, most people have enough other credit cards and loans that the impact is very small.)
- Assuming the card was terminated in good standing, the record will stay in your credit history for 10 years. That means that 10 years from now, your credit score will be affected when the card drops off your history. Meanwhile, all of your other credit card accounts will have aged 10 years, so overall the impact on your average credit card history should be insignificant.

Note: You can avoid the negative impacts of closing the Chase Sapphire Preferred by downgrading it to a Chase Freedom Flex or Ultimate account (no annual fee card).

So I don't think there is any chance the $50 grocery credit will be available on branch in 2 weeks. People are assuming they waived fee will be available again, which I'd say is a pretty good chance.

Thank you, repped for the insight!
