According to this Flyertalk thread, Chase is offering 50,000 miles as a signup bonus (after $250 in spend) for a Mileage Plus Visa.

The offer isn’t available online, you have to call. From the thread,

Call Mileage Plus Customer Service (1-800-421-4655 for non-elites)

1. Choose “manage my account”
2. Let them know your mileage plus number and zip code
3. Say “more options”
4. Finally say “apply for a United mileage plus card”.

And tell the rep that you’re calling for the 50,000 mile signup bonus offer.

All reports on-thread so far are positive.

    Gary, I fought hard to get my rightful 100,000 BA Visa miles after Chase told me I qualified and then corrected themselves. That’s when I called them on it. The muckety-mucks up high gave in, but also said you can only get bonus miles once per type– and a travel card is one type. So they made it clear I couldn’t get these types of bonuses any more. Was that true or a scare tactic?

    Still valid, just got it approved with the 00000 zip code trick. Chase and the United rep both confirmed the 50k bonus.
