How many Chase UR points have you accumulated?

Anonymous — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 03:16:54 GMT

So far, I've accumulated 121K...Hoping to add 50K shortly from my recent ink plus approval . My goal is to accumulate enough to pay for airfare + hotel on a Carribean vacation. The points really add up fast. How many do you have?

About 200,000.

Most of them were from a 100K CSP first use promo + 50K on an Ink Bold.

It was a while ago, during the 100K BA, 100K American Airline, and 100K Venture Card promos. Initially, I was targetted for 50k, but secured message if they would match the current 100K targetted.

And, they did. Chase has been very accomodating during these credit card sign up wars

PS - During this time, there was also 100K Amex Plat, 75K Amex Gold, 100K Ink Bold, and $350 cashback for $500 spend on the Freedom, and $400 cashback for $500 spend on the BofA 1-2-3. There were so many, it was impossible to try and get them all. I recall during this time, anything less than $500 sign up bonus wasn't even worth an inquiry.

PS 2 - My favorite was the UA Explorer for 60K miiles on first charge and $50 statement credit.

About 150k so far. 50k from my CSP signup bonus and 100k from spending.

My United card gets much more use than my CSP though. I've racked up about 120k UA miles from spending in the past 10 months. The only signup bonus was the 1st year AF waived.

Gosh, I thought I was accumulating well, but I see I still have a ways to go to catch up with some of you high rollers :-)...

I'm just a newbie. I earned 10,757 in my first month...received the 10K sign up bonus.

Prob around 175-200K. But I redeemed a little over 100k for prestige class flights to Asia on KAL.

so far ~65k points with the sign up bonus. if i didnt use some last year it would be ~85k...but i think any thing over $600 in rewards(when redemend) we need to pay a tax on from what i read.

Not a "high" roller here, but most of my points were from sign up bonuses, UR Mall purchases, Office Depot 5x, and double points on dining/travel. I've never used either card unless it was at least 2% spend.

PS - All things being equal, a general guideline for rewards enthusiasts is to never use a card unless it's greater than 1% reward.

LOL, same here! Sitting at just over 55K points, but February points haven't posted yet and I pushed a lot through my CSP and JPM cards. EVERYTHING is going on those two cards for the next few months, wanna get a good point build up.

640,212 UR points earned according to my spreadsheet; I've redeem over 2/3 of that already though. A good chunk was from sign-up bonuses (50k CSP, 50k Ink Bold, 35k Freedom). I'm sad I missed out on the 100k days.
