Has anyone had experience of obtaining a Chase rewards credit card in the UK? The British Airways VISA signature card seems particularly attractive if it offers UK residents the same benefits as customers living in the US. The recent blog above seems to suggest the application process is now available to UK residents for certain rewards cards but I’d be interested to hear of anyone’s experience of doing this on this forum.
lol, they have copied the US blog and replaced US with UK.
And people do seem to fall for it.
What a trash site. Still, they at least caught some of the $’s and changed them to £’s.
So if the date of this blog was 1st April 2024 I’d understand, but I don’t understand the mentality of anyone posting something so blatantly and deliberately misleading if this is indeed completely incorrect. “If it sounds too good to be true…. it probably is” as they say and yes “people will fall for it” but at least I did check on this forum…
Apart from thrashing the site , yes it is possible
Of course if you have a
– US residential address
– SSN
– US bank account
— US credit high enough to get approved.
Pay attention if your BA account address does not
Match to your US account address there would be trouble transferring the miles.

Not only is it not that straightforward to get US cards, unlike what this site suggests, but the Chase BA card requires your BAEC account to be registered to a US address in order to receive the Avios.
If you can’t spot AI generated crap then you need to shape up, because your future isn’t looking too good.
And, of course, by linking to that article from a site with a high Google reputation, you give it credibility and Google will now show it to more people more often.
“..shape up…”
Newton-John/Travolta lyrics firmly stuck in my head now @Rob 😀

Perhaps you should remove the link, Rob

I’ve got all of the above, what’s the best way to go about this?
Go to the bank website and apply for the card you want.

Will there be any issues transferring the points? Anything I should be aware of?

If you are referring to the Chase BA card, then yes, see my post above. You need a US registered address for your BAEC account otherwise you won’t receive the Avios.
The other Chase cards might be better, as can just transfer to BA.
Keep in mind though that you can be asked to evidence your income and verify your identity through US tax returns. I have never applied for a card with Chase, but have experienced this with other US credit card companies and it is a huge pain to sort if asked (unless you are currently filing taxes in US with the IRS AND doing so with a US address).
