Our Verdict
Seems to be widely available on all Chase cards with the exception of the INK Cash/Plus cards. This is an excellent deal for Optimum. Note, again, the fine print suggests this won’t work for existing users – I’d be curious to hear if anyone actually tries this out.
Also note, you might lose your autopay discount if you pay with the card; sometimes bank payment is required for that.

Data point
Optimum was my monopoly ISP for a few years. Horrible company. Two price hikes a year. Price increase notices are tucked at the bottom of only the PDF bill in mice type. I had to call every year or two and tell them I’m switching to 5G to get my bill below $60 for 100Mbps. They will play games with you to see how much you’ll take. The only time they ever reached out to see what they could do for me was when I moved out of their service area and cancelled. And they called in the middle of my moving day.
Why not just tell them you are moving to another city that does not offer Optimum and you need service cancelled by X date.
Just understand that optimum now owned by Altice requires a 45 min high pressure sales push to not cancel . Only other time I have experienced this was at a time share in Mexico . You say you want to cancel . They make you listen to multiple offers to keep service over and over . Transfer you to multiple sales reps . One is good cop. One is bad cop . .
Looks like chase is not crediting the 15% back on all Optimum saved offers. The ones not being credited no longer show the offer as having been saved in the first place. Booooo
What does DP mean?
DP? what does that mean?
2nd DP!
The offer credited for paying my monthly bill.
If it’s like AT&T offers, it doesn’t process differently.
This is also on US Bank cards and they have double cash back days now so 30% off.
How would the payment process differently as a new customer vs an existing customer?
