55,000 bonus miles? that's almost double the current broad market offer. Did you get that through a mailer? Congrats and nice limit!
I assume OP means the 50k targeted offer plus 5k for adding an AU. While the public offer is 30k+ 5k for AU, you can call or secure message chase and ask them to match the higher offer. I called, spoke with a nice rep who said they forward these requests to marketing. About 2 weeks later, I got a letter saying they were adding 20k miles to my original bonus. When the next statement cut, there they were. The cs rep I spoke with said they were more likely to match if you got the MPE when purchasing tickets, fyi. So if you got the 30k bonus that way, consider contacting chase.
OP: Did you use your MPE much before getting the targeted offer for club card? Do you fly united a lot? I've thought about upgrading for the lounge access and 2nd free bag (issue when traveling with kid), but it would be great to try for a year before committing. enjoy the card.
In wallet: Ink Plus 10k, AMEX TE 25k. In bag: CSP 16k, USAA WMC 15k, Hyatt 13k, United MPE 12k, AMEX HHonors 3k. In SD: Cap 1 QS 5k, Discover IT 7k. FICO 08 says my EQ is now 844, was 510 in 2010.
