nanojew, did you apply for this card yet ?
Dan, do you think this offer will come back around?
You recently registered for a purported promotion awarding Elite status
if you applied and were approved for a Continental Airlines World
MasterCard. This was never a valid promotion and was never offered to
anyone, privately or publicly, by Continental Airlines. The promotion and
related promotion codes were accessed in an improper manner and were
placed in the public domain without the knowledge or authorization of
Continental Airlines. Therefore, Elite status will not be awarded in
conjunction with the Continental Airlines World MasterCard.
As a reminder, offers and associated promotion codes are only valid if
they are communicated to you by Continental Airlines. Moreover,
targeted offers are not transferable. If you would like to speak with a
OnePass representative about this matter, please call 1-800-551-3237.
If you were approved for the Continental Airlines World MasterCard,
Chase will honor that account and you may use it to earn OnePass miles.
However, if you are no longer interested in obtaining the Continental
Airlines World MasterCard, please reply to this email and type into the
body of the email “Cancel my Card” and the MasterCard you applied for
will be cancelled. You may contact a Chase representative to ask any
questions, or cancel your card at 1-866-386-5885.
Thank you for your support and understanding.

Well, besides for a class-action suit theres not much to do.
However chase waived the $85 fee for me due to the fiasco, so ill take 15,000 miles and 5% off continental tickets any time for free-especially because continental is one of the only airlines that doesnt have a no-fee card.
Just give chase a call and explain the situation and threaten to cancel, and you chouldnt have a problem getting the fee waived.
