1 year but you really should look over the benefits page for the card because it's explained there

Thanks Irish.  I don't have the card yet. 

Chase / MR et al are taking their sweet time 

not to worry. They took their $395 on the 1st

Of course they did   It should be arriving soon.  Sign up for MyUPS so you'll know when it's been shipped

Thanks. Got the my ups and fedex equivalent.   Approved on Dec 29.  I'm wondering if I'll have the card this week. Need to pay air upgrades by 10th.

I would think you would get it latter part of the week.  'Should' be there in time

Thanks Irish.

I've been trying to use the ritz site to check if I have an ID.  I click on I forgot my pasword/ID and  put in my name/email etc but it still doesn't show me in their system.  Maybe that's not the right route.  

I might try to call Ritz at some point, maybe Tuesday.

Try to find out if you have an account with Marriott Rewards and if it shows you with Gold membership, then everything is fine.

If you DID NOT have a marriott or ritz carlton rewards account prior to opening a marriott or ritz carlton rewards credit card, you would go to the marriott rewards website (via this link <https://www.marriott.com/rewards/createAccount/activateAccountChallenge.mi>) and use the number listed on the back of your credit card (Which is now your rewards account number) to create an online access account and have it linked to your marriott rewards account.

You can't do this until you have the card in hand, as it is what holds the information necessary.

Also, keep in mind if your AF posted on 1/1 (based on your Dec approval), the same would apply for next year.  So, if you plan on cancelling the card before the AF posts, you will not be able to take the $300 travel credit for the 2017 calendar year, only this year.

ETA: unless you're able to convince them to waive the AF next year (doubtful) or you employ the services of jsucool76 to learn other "tricks"
