I've just been approved for the 75k Marriott Rewards Premier Plus.
And with an insanely high credit limit! That line's going on the chopping block as soon as I have this card in hand.
I wish I could've used a support link, but it seems "
[t]he Marriott Rewards® Premier Plus Credit Card Refer-A-Friend promotion has concluded." I clicked through all the Marriott links on DISchurners, and they're all dead. Support links for this card seem to have ended around the time the 100k offer dropped down to the current 75k. In hindsight, I wish I had gone for the 100k (and supported a DISchurner), but I wanted more space away from my last application and hard pull in mid-May and I was waiting until August to see what Starriott had planned for their cards lineup. Sometimes patience pays off, and this time I'm stuck with a crappier offer.
This is basically my last shot at this card and some kind of bonus on it for almost two years under the new restrictions. It's part of my big push to build up my Marriott points before the restrictions make it hard for me to do so. I pushed up my plans to apply for it by about a week because I decided I could knock out the MSR with one rent payment, but I need to receive the card by the end of next week to set up a Plastiq payment. This will take one MSR off the table, so I can focus on finishing up DW's Hilton Biz, whittling away at my Biz Plat, and applying and working on the MSR for the SPG Lux over the next 2-3 months. (Hopefully, it also removes some risk whether I'll be getting the bonus post-8/26.) With the MR business charge card referrals ending today, I seriously considered referring myself for the 20k MR bonus on the 50k MR/$5k BGR, but I had to catch myself from taking on way more spend than what's called for in our budget.
This card also puts me at 5/24. (Curiously, CreditJourney tells me I've opened only 3 reported cards in the past 24 months, which I know is wrong.) The SPG Lux, which I plan to go for during that short 3-day window of opportunity between 8/23 and 8/26, will put me at 6/24. My oldest cards drop off in December, and another in February. When I'm finally back under 5/24, it'll have been 5-6 months since my last reported card. I'll be canceling the Marriott Biz after it hits a year in February and the Free Night posts, and then I'll try for the CIU if the offer's still good. But before then, I still need to see about getting DW her own CIU. And of course, meeting all this spend...
) and ended up putting my share of my contacts on my SPG. Get home and DHs Hilton biz is in themailbox, of course. At least it was a lot faster than mine, he (I) applied on Thursday. 
Hopefully, Chase gets those fixed soon! I got 'offer unavailable' from everyone's I checked.
