Chase Marriott Boundless Personal Credit Card

This may have already been posted but just in case someone didn't see it.

Offer came out September 29 for 125,000 points plus a 50K free night with $3000 spend. After renewal you would get a yearly 35K certificate. $95 annual fee.

www.Doctorofcredit.com doesn't see this as a 'best' offer - he preferred the 5 times 50k FNC offer.

Personally I think it's a great offer for those of us who use 'on the road' hotels that range in the low 20K's.

Also, points don't expire, certs do, so juggling them can become tiresome.

In general I prefer points. They don't expire but there's always the chance of devaluation. My recent use of an 85K cert coming up is for a 57k room. Makes me feel as if I'm wasting 28k points! I hesitate to hold it longer as I have no real plan for it and the return could end up being lower.

For far ahead planners these might work well to start or beef up a supply.

Thanks for posting this. I am considering a second dog and that would mean I'd be back to driving Central VA to SW FL so I could use these. Plus they'd replenish my Bonvoy points (depleted them for DD's graduation and two nights in London).

So the fact that it's a biz card with a personal purchase, won't raise eyebrows?

It shouldn't, I guess it could all depend on the dollar figure as to how closely they are looking at this. But again its comes out the merchants pocket if they dont respond not Amex.

I got part of the order, the part I am missing is only $50, about 1/3 of the order total.

I wouldn't see a $50 dispute make them look closely at that purchase or any of your purchases.

Anyone have any thoughts on this? I got half of the order right, but half is wrong. Wishing I had used a different card now, as I wouldn't question disputing the charge with Chase.

I h

I have, I also I used to work for Amex, they just file the dispute with the correct coding saying items not received etc and contact the merchant if the merchant doesn’t respond they charge the merchant back so it shouldn’t have any reflection on you. Sometimes if the amount isn’t a lot Amex will just credit you themselves instead of doing the dispute process.

I've only disputed on personal cards with them before, I don't have any Amex biz cards, but I don't think it would matter to them. I've found them much easier to dispute with than Chase. I don't think they would question the amount or what it was.

I recently disputed a personal charge on a Biz Plat. for $35. Item was never received. They immediately reversed the charge, and sent an email the next day letting me know the dispute had been resolved, and was closed. No further action needed. Easiest dispute I’ve ever experienced.
