I love credit cards so much! v2.0 (see first page for add'l details)

[Killer Fish]

Got bored with having no MSR....just opened the AMEX Delta Business card for 70k after 2k spend. Instant approval. Used the offer link on the DOC page to see if I was targeted. Seemed like a good offer and will kill time before starting my companion pass strategy.

SUB posts on statement close date.

Glad you got the long delayed credit from Amex! They are hard to figure out.

My statement close is on the 12th. I want to put a 5 day hold on a couple of biz AA saver award tickets from lhr. I was going to wait until the the 10th. Maybe I can do it tomorrow. Do you think my sub will post by 13th?

Has anyone had any luck pulling the 45k AmEx Green offer? I might pull the trigger on it if I could get that.

I was able to pull that for my P2 right after it first came out, and we now have the card in hand and our Away bag ordered. I am very lucky that he doesn't care what we do with our credit card apps, as long as I don't ask him to physically carry more than two cards at a time!

Anyone done the BBVA Compass bank bonus? I think DoC posted about it earlier today. There's one vague DP about Ally working for DD, but didn't know if anyone else had done it. I have Ally, Discover, and Fidelity that I could push from.

Macy's is at 20%. Which pushed me to use the Amex Offers Macy's $75 get $15 and 5% online department stores stack.

Which card did you have that on? I’m getting ready to place a $120 order and I knew there was a Macy’s offer but I’ve not been able to find.

It was on DH's Aspire. But I can't remember if he had it on other cards too. I didn't find it on any of my cards.

RetailMeNot is having up to 20% cash back today - worth a look.

Amex Plat folks - Saks is on there for 16% cash back.

I used my Plat credit for a replacement cutting board and a pair of knee socks for college dd!

Macy's is at 20%. Which pushed me to use the Amex Offers Macy's $75 get $15 and 5% online department stores stack.

Booooo we only have the +1 MR offers for Macy's

@smmco
I think it took my DH’s miles a couple of days to post after statement close date. I’d probably be safe and give them 48-72 hours from close date. With that said, my statement closes tomorrow, and I’d be happy to let you know if the miles post.

My SUB, while posting on statement close date, didn’t show up in my AA account for 2-3 days. That would be cutting it close in your case. But possible? Maybe?

Today my R-C free night posted! The AF won't post until the end of the month so I'm considering downgrading it. Any thoughts? I'll miss its heft but otherwise the benefits aren't really worth the AF at this point.

Thanks. I’ll hold off until Sunday. I’m hoping by the 15th my miles have posted. There’s a lot of availability on AA for British Airways flights. Hopefully the flight I want sticks around for a few more days.
I find it strange there’s no availability on the British airways website and of course no BIZ saver awards on AA metal. It’s costing me 550.00 more to book on BA metal vs AA.
If all the good options disappear I’ll book premium economy on AA. I can find AA saver flights in PE which would save me a bunch of points and money.

Neither the CIC or the CIU have AF's. I love the CIC. It earns 5x at office supply stores and for all telecommunications bills (cell phone, internet, cable, landline).

@MickeyMouseCD524 all this!

The CIU gets 1.5x back on everything so anything that doesn’t fit a CIP or CIC category can go on a CIU. No AF.

Got it! I'll look into them! thanks!

Where do you look to see if you are targeted for this? I thought it appeared on the SW page last year, but I can't remember where I saw it. We both have at least one Chase SW card as well, but I don't see anything online. Can someone please give me stupidly easy directions where to check for these offers.

Someone already probably replied, but when you go to Southwest and log in to your account click my account in the top right corner. From there on the left hand side there it says promotions. Click on that and if you are targeted it will show up there. Good luck, hope you get it.

 

[WVMomof3]

Got it! I'll look into them! thanks!

More importantly there is 50,000 UR SUB on each. SUB are the best feature on any card!

 

[alryan]

Super bummed - DH did not get targted either, but I'm not sure that SW knows he has a card yet (first statement hasn't closed). Faint hope that once the first statement closes, the promo will magically appear in his account?

I don't know if it would matter if he doesn't have the credit card yet. I would think as long as he has a rapid rewards account already the promo would be there, but I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! Of course I've been obsessively stalking the site today to see if the promo magically comes up for me. We can always hope, right?

 

[CaliforniaGirl09]

Really? Will that work? I will try it in another phone I have. If it works, I'll try upgrading to the phone I want.

It worked for me for about two years. I used my 6+ sim on my iPhone x. I would have used it on my 11, but I ended up going with an e-sim to keep the physical slot free for my travel sim. They actually didn't charge me the activation fee at AT&T for the e-sim, which was nice. I think if I'd done it online they would have, but I got the e-sim code from the apple store and took it into the AT&T store.

Thanks for pointing this out! There's a red wool peacoat that I've had my eye on at Macy's for a while, but I couldn't make up my mind on getting it. It was originally $225, then marked down to $160. Now, it is part of the "Friends" sale, and I had both Macy's offers on my Delta Amex (not my favorite card for earning, but it is worth it for this!). With the RMN boost, that came to <$75 with tax. I'm so thrilled.

I don't even know what an e-sim is. I'm so technologically backward.

I thought there was a Ticketmaster Amex Offer. Did I dream that or was it a Chase offer? I have googled it and didn't find anything and have checked a few cards. Does anyone else remember this??
