Barclays has just increased the sign up bonus on the jetBlue Plus and jetBlue business card to 100,000 points. Some readers that have recently applied for the card have asked about matching. Barclays didn’t use to match sign up bonuses, but that changed in 2017 and they now match bonuses as long as you applied within the last 30 days. This has now been confirmed by multiple readers who were able to successfully match to the new higher bonus. This is nice to see after Chase stopped matching some bonuses.
Just talked with a supervisor.
If you applied with Barclay you get 60K, NO MATCH!!!
If you applied with Jetblue you get 100k
Please post if someone actually gets the 100K.

Nevermind I found them in the post about the new offer
Check the original posts, also some on reddit and my inbox.
The only match confirmations I see in comments on DOC are for the business version. All personal comments say denied.
Definitely some on personal were approved as well, maybe they tighten after initial matches?
Just called twice today and got a firm NO (with a hint of “don’t even try calling back, it’s not happening”). Applied around 15 days ago. Bummer
Applied and approved less than 30 days ago. Called today and told they can’t match offers, they were specifically told they can’t in a meeting. Any help from those who got approved for the match?
denied. account approved just 33 days ago.
They denied me the match and I was approved less than 30 days ago (I applied 33 days ago).
pretty sure it’s based on application date.
Do you have to request the match ASAP or should you spend the 6k requirement first?
Match ASAP just to be sure
I spoke with a manger today who said they match within 45 days of an application (as opposed to 30). But I had to meet the minimum spend before they would submit my request for a match. He was optimistic though said there is still no guarantee they will do it.
No match for me. Told that at a meeting today employees were told no matching…
Someone at Barclays got laid…
