Chase Sapphire Reserved

Does the Chase Sapphire Reserved always have a 50k bonus or are there certain times of the year that they increase the sign up bonus higher than 50k points?

The public SUB hasn't changed from the 50k offer in awhile. Only increased offer known is applying in branch if you're a Chase banking customer with their 60k SUB.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserved

I think the original 100k  offer was becuase it was a new product but i have no evidence of that being the case.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserved

I've asked a couple of chase reps in the past and the consensus seems to be, without them outright saying it, that the 100k bonus was just when it was new and won't come back. To that end, the CSP was apparently 100k when it was new.

The CSP gives you a 5k bonus if you add an authorized user and has no annual fee for year 1. You can always upgrade it to the CSR in year 2 assuming you have a $10k or higher limit. So if you can go without the CSR benefits in year 1 that might be the way to go...but personally I think CSP + Citi Prestige is a better combo than getting the CSR. You should be able to get the Prestige for the reduced $350 annual fee by becoming a Citi Premier customer for 1 month, opening the Prestige, then canceling the Premier status after the AF drops for the prestige. premier costs $30 per month, but after you lose the status people say they still get the reduced card fee in subsequent years.

It's not as easy to get the 60k bonus as people claim, I think. According to my secured messages, you have to be a Chase Private Label customer, which I think refers to the Chase Private Client program, which requires you to have $250,000 in assets with Chase. So...yeah.

Nope, I just logged in to my Chase account to pay my bill and got green checkmarks SUBs for and including the CSP (60k), Freedom ($300) and FU ($300) with no banking relationship at all with them.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserved

Curious. I do have an account with Chase and I just logged on to my account. My SUB for Freedom is only $150 and for CSP, only 50,000 points. Your FICO numbers are quite a bit higher than mine, though. At any rate, the only place I would ever sign up for any Chase card is in my branch.

Re: Chase Sapphire Reserved

Man that's nuts, I've had a checking and savings account and freedom card with them since 2011 or 2012, and had a freedom unlimited opened in July and an ink business opened in November. I believe I checked and didn't see an offer for the CSP when I signed up in January - the only reason I didn't sign up in branch though is because I was applying for the Amazon prime card the same day so I wanted to ensure that both apps generated only 1 hard pull between them so I applied for both online...I didn't get the Amazon card though so bah
