Cancelling Credit Card After Making ADRs

[wilkeliza]

I know that has nothing to do with this thread, but I doubt someone wouldn't get hired b/c they have opened and cancelled a CC after the agreed upon terms to get a perk. How does that look bad I do agree it is very bad for your credit...more than just the few points your credit number dips. A credit score is a lot more than just the number. How many CC you have open, not only what your balance is, but what your potential balance could be and closing credit cards can be very bad for your credit.

It depends on the company but if they offer big perks they could wonder if the person is only there for the perks etc. Also it could show no loyalty. Not saying it is 100% going to not get you a job but if there are other issues that could be something they look at as well.

So, based on the feedback, my thought is that Disney would most likely never know if a credit card was changed and it would probably have no impact. There is a minor chance Disney could take you to collections, but the odds of Disney turning a paying customer over to collections over $40 is extremely minimal.

That being said, since, as I mentioned, I intend to go to all of my ADRs anyway, I'll probably use the card I will keep, just to be safe.

I do find the responses quite amusing, however. I didn't expect such backlash over what I thought was a rather innocent question. As a hiring manager at a major company, I find it laughable that people think that my job prospects might be ruined because I take advantage of legitimate credit card sign-on bonuses. Do yourself a favor and do a little research. Head to fatwallet.com.

When you use a credit card you know will be invalid at the time the payment would be processed, you're not considered a paying customer.
