@wendow
Delta vacations charges $4007 for 5 people Contemporary Bay Tower rooms

1 person ATL-MCO with the Contemporary is 4113.87, so $107 dollar to throwaway the flight. Or $150 for travel insurance. Kind of a crapshoot but if you think you'd cancel for any reason you are out of luck if you go the first route.

My only worry would be when does the travel voucher come. I'd do what @kmc8826 suggested and put the reservation on hold and pay with a few points then call in when you have the voucher. Either way good luck!!!

I called for the Biz Plat today and was told 5K plus another 5K if I spend $3K in 3 months. My annual fee doesn't post until 10/25 so he suggested I call after the fee posts. With the fee increase to $595, you would think plenty of people are cancelling and they would have better offers.

DH called for a retention offer on his Plat Bus Amex and they offer 10k. Not enough to justify the $595 AF to me, so bye-bye. We were careful to keep regularly spending a bit on it (there were some good offers!), so hopefully no burned bridges with Amex.

I am so tempted to do this, but the uncertainty around the tickets is stopping me.... We need tickets for a Nov 2020 trip (ideally to bridge to a DVC AP) and we could use the Delta credit for another trip next year.

Yeah Im just not sure if you can 100% upgrade I'd hate to steer you wrong. We will use the tickets either way and are on the fence about upgrading anyways so for the price I'm taking the risk

@wendow getting BLT for for 2K seems like an amazing value to me!!

Does anyone have the automated number to call Chase for business approvals? I don't want to talk to anyone.

I plan to wait it out. Makes me wonder if putting EIN would have made a difference. I had nothing to lose, either I get card and bonus or I seek out a mailer somehow in a few months.

I'm up for CIP3 on 9/18 and I don't think this affects that at all, both being biz cards.

Are there new mailers without the 48 month language or are the only ones left without the language older mailers? Do you know @SouthFayetteFan?

People are still primarily using the mailers that expired on 8/15. Those will likely still work for another month or so - I don't know of many DPs of people testing that 48 mo. language YET... I'm sure people are and DPs will come in soon though.

Chase's automated status line: 1-800-432-3117, #, 3, 1, SSN

Is this the Pixar shorts? We watched last month and loved it!!!

We watched it for the first time last month too We had seen them all but it was still cute to see them in 3D and be in the air conditioning!

That's why I decided to just go for public. I'm expecting it not to work, but if it does, yay me. Either method seems would have the 48mo language so I took the easy road.

I've used the same one every time. I've changed my login each time though. Honestly don't know if that matters or not.



Which ones did they show? We did at DL last year and loved it!

They showed “get a horse”, piper, and feast. They were all cute. I had seen piper and feast before but not in 3D. We had no idea the theater was going to move lol

This trip you have time to stop and smell the roses since you didn't get a chance to plan every minute. Glad to see you enjoying yourself! Is Thursday your go home day or was it Friday?

Most of our trips are kind of like that now since we only live an hour away. We don’t always book FPS and adrs ahead of time. It’s so nice to take it slow and find new things. We go home Thursday. Seems like our town hasn’t gotten hardly anything

I'm considering getting tickets that we'd use anyway, but it would be a bummer if we couldn't bridge. Going back and forth on possibilities, so I appreciate everyone's data points!

Yes! I really liked them! I’m wondering how often they change the shorts

Haha that’s so awesome! I didn’t think we’d be on the very next video!

Ok, I was perfectly fine being MSRless even after my AMEX popup probably because I was expecting it but now I'm in a state of anxiously waiting to see if I get this little old no fee card. I started a collection of UR's last summer with the Chase Freedom.

The $500 would be a nice addition to what I have now. As far as I remember that comes in the form of 50K UR's. The eventual goal would be to transfer to my Hyatt account but that is a plan that was far out. The ability to catch a little something from Chase (or Amex) was definitely enticing.

Chase did one inquiry on my Equifax account. Everything is outstanding - their word - my score is as high as it can go (except I have 6 Chase cards). Due to my retirement, my pension income is obviously lower than my former paycheck and I did not add any other available assets to that number. That worked with Navy Fed back in March, but maybe it's too small for Chase?

You gave yourself away! I have seen him a couple times in the parks filming around the holidays. Does he approach you and ask or did you just go up and say hello and then he asks?
