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

Two of the four orders I did through Rakuten tracked. I did a couple before last night and as long as all Disney gift cards they did ship together.

Rakuten is up to 10% back at BJ’s today so worth trying.

All of my shopping trips show up in Rakuten, but only one is pending :-(

Thanks for the suggestion to call for a waiver. Though I paid the late fee and finance charges yesterday, Amex is going to credit back the late fee. It's not all I was hit with, but at least $35 is back. And I won't make that mistake again. UGH!

For the $500 Chase business checking account bonus - is anybody planning to meet the 5 qualifying transactions requirement just by doing 5 ACH credits? DH and I both opened one of these accounts and deposited the $2500. I've done 5 pushes from Capital One on my account, and DH has completed 5 pushes from Discover. All of them are listed as ACH credit in the Chase biz account, which the terms of the offer state count as qualifying transactions. But, that seems too easy... anybody NOT doing 5 debit transactions and relying just on the ACH credits?

I got in trouble with that. Do the debits.

Chase told me the bank transfers we did weren’t actually ACH credits or some weird thing like that and that there was nothing I could do since the time to meet the req had passed. I did 5 debit card purchases that day and got the bonus the next Tues. Fun fact: they give an extra 1-2 weeks to meet the reqs on the biz account just like on personal- at least last year.

Does anyone have experience with the Wells Fargo Business Platinum Credit Card? We currently have about 150,000 Go Far Rewards and we are looking to add to that number. Looking in the Wells Fargo Go Far Rewards travel portal, it looks like we can use those points for Disney World resorts. Any specific guidance on the application, or pretty much same info as on other Business applications? Can you transfer the bonus points easily from the Business Card Rewards Program to the Go Far Rewards Program? Any and all information/guidance is appreciated.

Thanks

I did get that card but only was offered cash at the time. Idk if points transfer to WF Go Far Rewards.

I'm in the market for a new Samsung phone and got the 20% deal on two of my chase cards, but not the one I currently have MSR for. Bummer.

No personal experience but you can transfer points between the two online.

That's from last year but there's still an online option, might just look different. Also looks like there's some kind of bonus when redeeming the Business rewards online. Little vague on how that pays out but almost seems like a 1.1 value maybe? But with no experience don't know what the options look like to know which direction is better to transfer to.

@gottalovepluto didn't you get this card? And a Propel? How do the redemptions compare?

I cashed out my propel points as well. Didn’t see anything about 10% bonus for using them on the portal.

Dear Amex,

How the hell does a Netflix charge from Brazil not trigger your fraud alert?

Sincerely,
Annoyed customer apparently replacing my Aspire. Again.

I never use streaming services. I just keep downloading more music onto my phone. I think I have around 2,500 songs or something like that.

I have... like 6000

Card came today (yes, my mail comes late!) so one of my neighbors must have gotten my ‘fooled ya’ paperwork and knew it wasn’t important enough to bother walking over to me

I have a question for those that use password managers. I'd be using it for my accounts of course and I know DH won't want to bother with one for his. We login to each other's accounts a lot, so I assume for his chase account for example I would just skip using the pw manager for that. And on the off chance he needs to access one of my pw managed accounts I'd have to send it to him from the pw manager tool? Or could he login to the pw manager as me?

Looks like there is a 20% cash back on Lyft rides good until 2/18/20 (max $1000 cash back) if you use your Sofi Money debit card as the default payment. I also have a 25% off Lyft promo in my account, so I hope these will stack. There are support links over in Dischurners for those interested.

They’re showing pending as $168 in my chase account so I’m thinking it worked

All 7 of my orders are showing pending for the full amount!!

My dh and I have one PW manager account and everything is stored in the same account. We both log in through that one login. Hope that’s answering your question.

Unfortunately that isn't any guarantee. If they ship separately, they will bill separately, the pending amount is just the total amount of what we ordered. I am crossing fingers and toes that they all ship together!!

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but what happened when my order shipped separately was the full amount was charged (pending). The pending amount was refunded, then the rest recharged as they shipped separately. You're not really out of the woods until you get the shipped e-mail.

Okay, so we keep holding our breath

I think the 10% bonus is only a feature on the Business Platinum rewards points version, you'd have to look at the portal through that card I guess. Bummer about the cash version, I forgot that was the deal then. You can do the points program now for the bonus too.

If the 10% is worthwhile then in theory you'd pool your other go far points on the Business card for redemption. Unless going for airfare, then you'd want them on the Visa Signature for the 1.5-1.75 redemption rate. It's becoming an interesting little program. Especially if you can still send points to anyone.

Thanks!! What do you use again?

Jenna and Hoda just tried the pretzel Pop Tarts on their show LOL.

 

[vanjust14]

Oh okay. I did the 3 pack of $50s and a $25. If they don’t get charged together Dh is gonna be mad

I did the same. Really hoping they ship together. Otherwise, I could have just kept going to Stop and Shop for the guaranteed $20 back on $100
