5 X Rapid Rewards Promotions

I am POSITIVE in September 2020 I registered for a promotion that got you 5 point for every dollar spent on Southwest.  When I received my SW Rapid Rewards Visa Statement today I only got 2 points.  I specifically remember the promotion included SW Gift Cards.  You can not see prior month promotions in your RR account.  1st, does anyone know how to see promotions you registered for in a prior month????  Second, does anyone happen to have a copy of this promotion?    Any help you can provide will be most appreciated.

Since this is/was a Chase credit card promotion and not a Southwest promotion you would not see any indication of it in your RR account.  To verify eligibility or registration you would need to contact Chase.  If Southwest gift cards were included in the offer you would have needed to purchase them directly from Southwest, did you do that?  You also typically have to allow up to 8 weeks after the promotion ends for points to post to your account.  Seeing that it is October 10, it's barely been 1 week since September ended (assuming the promotion ended September 30).

I purchased two $1,000 gift cards directly from Southwest on the Southwest website using my Chase SW Rapid Rewards Visa.  The registration was on the SW web site. If you look at your RR account today you will see the 5X promotion starting October 1. I am 100% certain I registered for one that was effective in September on the SW website.

It's a good idea to always keep a copy of any promotion you participate in -- save the email, take a screenshot, etc. You might want to check your deleted email folder if you didn't save a copy.

 

The easiest way to see if you're registered is to click on the "Register Now" link in the email you received. You'll be taken to a page to register, if you click on the Register Now link there and you're already registered, you'll see the following message:

 

Oops! You are already registered for this promotion. (SW giberish code)
 
From the email I received on August 3, 2020, here are the terms & conditions of the offer:
