IMPORTANT INFORMATION

1Offer valid July 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009. To qualify for the reward you must open a new Chase CheckingSM account with a $100 minimum opening deposit of new money (money not currently held by Chase or its affiliates). Also, to qualify for the first 10,000 bonus miles you must make 5 debit card purchases with any Chase debit card linked or used to access the new account or initiate a repeating direct deposit such as payroll, Social Security or other government benefits. The 5 debit card purchases or first direct deposit must be completed within 60 days of account opening to earn the bonus miles. Initial 10,000 bonus miles will be deposited in your OnePass® account 6-10 weeks after the 5 debit card purchases or initial direct deposit has posted to the new account. Limit one personal checking account-related reward per customer, per calendar year. Limit one 10,000 bonus miles per checking account. Offer not available on account conversions or in combination with any other offer. Customers are still eligible for the first 10,000 miles even if they do not get the Chase Continental Airlines Preferred Debit Card. Account is subject to approval. Chase CheckingSM is available only at Chase branded branches, excluding branches in California.

2The second 15,000 bonus miles will be credited to the cardholder's OnePass account after the first qualifying purchase is made with your Chase Continental Airlines Preferred Debit Card or Chase Continental Airlines Debit Card. Please allow 6-10 weeks after your first qualifying purchase for bonus miles to post to your OnePass account. The first qualifying purchase must be made within the first 60 days in order to qualify for the bonus miles

P.S. You can try to combine this offer with $100/$125 bonus for opening a Chase Checking account. I did it last year with similar offer and got both bonuses. Although I had to call a couple of times to get 25K point credited, I finally got all of the points.

Edit:
you can get an e-mail with $100 bonus coupon here:

For those of us w/o Chase branches nearby, we're out of luck, right? From the language it looks like a branch visit is required but I'm wondering if anyone has contrary knowledge to that.

Thanks! I'll give it a try later today.

Sweet, thanks for posting this. Nice to see I can get a bunch of miles without having to open up a new credit line.

so what are the gotchas?

the debit card has a $25 annual fee.

"Limit one personal checking account-related reward per customer, per calendar year."

From this I would gather that opening up an account earlier this year with a $150 bonus would disqualify me?

The Chase Continental Airlines Preferred Debit Card has an annual fee of $65 per checking account. If you choose the lower fee option of $25 with the Chase Continental Airlines Debit Card, you earn 1 mile for every $2 in qualifying purchases. Customers choosing the lower fee option will still receive the second 15,000 bonus miles after the first qualifying purchase.

Can you convert an existing account to a Continental account?

I did similar promotion 1.5 years ago and since then closed the account. Will I still qualify?

Was anyone successful in getting this offer (Combining Continental Miles & 100 Bonus?)

A rount-trip ticket to Europe requires 50,000 One Pass miles, so $25 for 25k miles seems like a solid deal to me.

I doubt that the Chase employee at the branch would look favorably upon using both coupons (if you even manage to get your hands on an original $100 coupon in the first place)... big YMMV.

I just opened such an account with them using the coupon link from continental website. This one is better.
I got $125 for open account, instead of the initial 10000 miles, plus $65 for 11000 miles/2500 for my wife(authorized user).
I paid $65 for 13500 miles. This offer is $25 for 15000 miles.

I got turned down at WAMU in California.

Rep pointed out this clause "Chase CheckingSM is available only at Chase branded branches, excluding branches in California." He tried punching in the numbers on my coupon but no go.

He said I should try again after the October 23rd conversion,
