70,000 Points for Marriott Premier Visa
Update: Some offers mentioned below are no longer available. View the current offers here – Marriott Rewards Premier Credit Card
Recently I blogged about a pretty great deal for the Marriott Premier - 50,000 points and a bunch of other benefits. However, several TPG readers sent me a link for 70,000 points. This isn't one of my links, but it does lead directly to a Chase application page, so I feel comfortable recommending it.
If you've gotten the Marriott Premier recently, it would probably make sense to send Chase a secure message and ask for the difference between what you got and 70,000. In general, if you've applied for a card within the last 60 days, they'll give you the more lucrative sign-up bonus. It never hurts to ask!
Full review of the card. See also: View from the Wing also covers this deal.
