Nice deal, Pity I still have the Ink Business Preferred active and just applied for Freedom Unlimited... A word of caution with their UR Travel service. I had very negative experience with them lately.
On one occasion, I planned my conference and booked the hotel with UR Travel instead of using the conference link. The price was similar, so I decided to earn a few points... That was bad choice because:
They charged the full amount immediately instead of placing a hold.
When I wanted to shorten my stay, it took me almost 2 hour on the phone to change it. And even then, their portal still shows the old travel dates and it took them 2 weeks to refund the difference, so that I had to pay the balance first.
On the other occasion, I tried to book a cruise with them - even worse headache. They do have some cruises online but not all of them. And definitely they don't have any of the optional packages the cruise lines now have to sweeten the deal. My cruise was not available on the portal so I ended up spending 2-3 hours on the phone with very ignorant UR rewards employee who wanted nothing more than to end the call.
And most importantly... The Ultimate Rewards Travel has been outsorurced abroad, to multiple call centers in at least 2 multiple locations (I heard 2 different type of accents, both equally bad). The UR Travel call center used to be 100% English speaking, very knowledgeable, very nice and attentive representatives. Not anymore. Upon your call you are getting to the badly accented employee who is clueless as to what you are asking such that you have to repeat yourself 2-3 times. Mid you, English is my second language too, so I don't mind repeating, knowing that my accent is also bad. But I also know that it is not that bad so I have to repeat myself so much so it gets tiring. There is also bad lag between you talking and call center responding. This is confirmed on every occasion I had to interact with them. The only way to solve this is to immediately request the US Representative. At least for now this works, but who knows for how long.
Thanks for the heads up. Refer my wife to sign up. That's 15k for referral and 80,000 once the spending requirements are met.
That's what OP said. 80k + 10k in branch.

The lady that I spoke with at the branch said there's 10K extra points if I apply at the branch, but it requires another $6k spend in the following 3 months,
after $4k spend in the 1st 3 months.
Was this condition mentioned to any of those who applied at the branch?
The other option I was considering is to apply online so that my spouse can get the 15k referral bonus.
My spouse has the Sapphire Reserve, can he get the referral bonus if I use the link to apply for a Sapphire Preferred card?

When did your spouse get the welcome bonus for his Sapphire Reserve? If it's within the last 48 months, he wouldn't qualify
I and my wife already have saphhire card last year. Am I still eligible top open a card on business account?
Does chase offer $0 fee if I open the card at the bank?
I just signed up for this card this past Saturday off a referral, but was only for 60k points.
Does anyone think Chase will honor the new 80k point bonus offer?
Yes, I just called about this and they informed me once you qualify for the 60k, give them a call within 30 days and they will honor the additional 20k points.
I downgraded my prior Preferred card to just a Chase Sapphire card more than 3 years ago. Would I still get this bonus if I signed up for this upgraded card now? Otherwise, it sounds like I just have to refer my spouse.

It's 6k total spend.
4k gets you 80k points. Another 2k (for 6k total) gets you the extra 10k points.
You have 3 months from opening date for the first part, 6 months from opening date for the second part.

He got the RESERVE less than a year ago, but he would be referring me for a PREFERRED card. Are you saying that referral bonus cannot be earned since he got his card less than 48 months ago? I thought the 48 months was for signup bonus and does not apply to referral bonus?
Assuming he's eligible for referral bonus, it's still not clear whether a person with RESERVE can refer another person to a PREFERRED card.
I had chase sapphire in the past but don't have right now. I am chase customer with freedom credit card and checking account. Am i eligible to refer this card to my wife? (My wife never had chase sapphire in past)
I had chase sapphire in the past but don't have right now. I am chase customer with freedom credit card and checking account. Am i eligible to refer this card to my wife? (My wife never had chase sapphire in past)
I signed up for chase sapphire reserve few months ago, but messed up and didn't spend 4k in 3 months. Could I cancel and sign up for another chase sapphire reserve/preferred and be eligible for the bonus points after spending 4k?
Anybody have any advice for juggling personal and business cards from Chase?
I have a Chase business card, and signed up for a second, personal card a while back. The whole thing was a total mess. I couldn't see my personal account details after logging in, so I reached out to customer service. After three phone calls over several days I was finally told I would need two completely separate logins (which I thought was dumb since I was offered and approved for the card while logged into my business account). This also meant the app was a pain because logging out removed biometric authentication. It was such a disaster that I just ended up cancelling the personal card.
Is it just not possible to manage personal and business cards from the same place?
Edit: alright, people can quit responding that it's possible to manage both. Apparently, either there was something specific with my account, or I had a series of bad customer service reps, because they explicitly told me they could not merge the accounts. Maybe I'll try again in the future.
You have to have separater logins but you are able to transfer UR points between personal and business accounts you just have to set it up special in UR portal

Thanks. I'll have to check another branch or talk to a different person to confirm.
