New ReviewerApplied for a Visa card with 80K bonus points, was only issued 40K bonus points. Chase refuses to acknowledge or correct their error.
I applied for a Chase Marriott Rewards Visa cards earlier this year. This decision was based solely on the offer of 80,000 points after charging $3,000 within the 1st three months.
I printed out the offer, as well as my approval at the time I applied. I fulfilled my end of the deal, and called to inquire about using my points, when I was informed that the offer I received was for 40,000 points. I escalated the call to a supervisor, who was no more helpful, insisting nothing could be done. I am very frustrated, as every time I search for Marriott Visa, the only offers I find on the internet are for 80,000 points.
Furthermore, when I log into my account, the login homepage displays an offer for 80,000 points. I have been lied to and conned out of 40,000 points. I would never have applied for this card for only 40,000 points; I am very happy with the service I receive from my other credit card companies.
Additionally, I requested a card for my wife, which should receive a bonus of 7,500 points, but was told that my account is only eligible for a 5,000 point bonus. I have written to their corporate offices, and they do not even give the courtesy of a reply.
Reason of review: Poor customer service.
Monetary Loss: $400.
Preferred solution: Issue the 40,000 points they cheated me out of..
Chase Bank Cons: Did not follow through on their offer.

I applied for the Chase backed Marriott Rewards card for the 80,000 bonus points but only received 40,000 and a $100 statement credit. I was suppose to receive 80,000 points after making $3000 in purchases in 3 months and the annual fee of $85 waived.
Nope, didn't happen that way. What's funny is the lady actually tried to convince me that I had in fact applied for the 40,000 bonus point offer. Hilarious!
I've been a Chase customer for years, but that has no value. So I'll be cancelling that card AND the other Chase credit card I have.
