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

Did anyone do the AT&T offer with Chase yet? Two transactions of $15 and get $40 back? I did a $20 and a $15 purchase on AT&T a week ago and the offer has disappeared from my Chase card (isn't showing up in redeemed yet either). Maybe just slow Chase offers, just didn't know if anyone else had gotten a credit. Tried to search on r/churning but couldn't find anything.

I think I remember reading on the old thread that someone was able to use 3 gc's online but if you wanted to use more than that, you'd have to call in and that process was a pain for someone.

(Haha- This is what I meant in my last posting about me not reading who's actually posting what...all I can remember is "someone" posted, which I know isn't that helpful.)

Well that is helpful enough for me at this point. I only have 2 to use. Thanks

New thread looks great! Thanks for setting that up SouthFayetteFan.
Quick question, DH got the Discover savings account bonus a few months ago. Can I also open one in my name for the bonus? I would move the money from his to mine. I'm assuming it's fine, but wasn't sure about same address etc.

A new threaddddddddd so much happens when I have a busy day and can't get to reading the Disboards I was wondering when we'd outgrow that space...

 

[SouthFayetteFan]

For glossary SM should be in there. We mention SMing a lot

That’s funny you say that because I took it out, added it back and then took it out again lol. I just wasn’t sure it was often used enough. I will put it back in for good

Loving the new thread!!

PNC - thanks for the tips of putting my savings in Growth mine is at 2.4%. Do I need to make deposits direct into growth or is it ok to put into spend to trigger the higher interest rate. This “wallet” is totally confusing!!!

 

[SouthFayetteFan]

Actually, that makes me wonder about adding links to one of the stickies. What do you think @SouthFayetteFan, oh benevolent dictator, could football stats share space with links to posts on the thread where people have given really good instructions on how to accomplish certain objectives, like using Delta GCs? Or is that making it too easy? I thought "someone" wrote a good post about how to save content for future reference but I don't recall any of the details.

I am torn on having a comment linking to “best content” or “best tips” etc. @afan mentioned not wanting to make it too easy to find this stuff. I’m not sure of the thoughts there of the entire community..:

I remember a few people asking when told to “SM to PC a card” (back when that was possible)

Should be fine. I opened up individual Discover savings for both DH & I in late 2016 with no issues whatsoever. But I was putting in money from external accounts, not from one Discover account directly to another, so in your case I would transfer money as follows your account > external account > his new account.

Hey we have @Lain and his spreadsheet for that

 

[SouthFayetteFan]

Do you think a short list of the regulars and their relative respective areas of expertise would be beneficial. The thread moves fast and sometimes a question may be asked but missed and knowing who to tag about that question would help. A short list of the Delta hostages, the AA hostages, the bank bonus gurus, SW experts, Schwab cash out King, using airline partner peeps etc.

I don’t want to forget anybody (or offend anybody not named an expert)...and that also sounds like a lot of upkeep lol. I will respectfully decline this idea for now but anybody else is welcome to identify and maintain this list (especially somebody else with a page 1 comment LOL)

 

[hsmamato2]

Really, @Lain


Serious comment... do we want to link the hotel review thread in a sticky post?

yes please!!! I always have a hard time finding that thread!!!

 

[Alexle2007]

Off to the ortho to get my brace's wire changes and pay the balance of $3000. Do I put it towards by Arrival Plus+ MSR or meet by CIC MSR with it? Decisions, decisions!

Yeah, I can totally see that, especially for the more sensitive content. Of course, it's a judgement call as to what is sensitive. I'm fine either way. I do wish there was a way for me to curate info that applies to me and my situation under my login.

ETA: I guess I can always make my own Google doc and paste links into there.

 

[speedyfishy]

Ugh, my Walmart is burned for MOs they asked for ID and started putting my address into the system. Then they couldn’t accept my address because it’s a PO Box. They told me I need to bring a bill next time with my address? Really? For a $498 MO???

 

[hsmamato2]

Well I got here in time for page 4. But I was only gone 8 hrs. Went to the old page and was like, why can I not reply Doh.

Me too..... what do you mean I don't have enough privileges????

 

[FloridaNative8]

Ahhhhh, Page 5, but I'm here!! I had to finish the other thread first, I can't leave things undone

Thank you @SouthFayetteFan for putting the work into this new thread!!!

We got DH's CIP login all figured out, and my employee card is on the way. My 20K referral URs are pending

 

[Chancery8]

Found the posts I was referring to:

I agrre with this. I have hundreds in DL gift cards that I haven't/cannot use. You cannot pay for seat upgrades, etc with a giftcard. Fares only. When I called in to apply multiple gift cards once it worked but the call was over an hour talking with a non native English speaker and very painful.

@trstno1 said:
I don't know if this is a recent change as I don't recall ever using a Delta gift card before, but last week I booked a Delta flight for my daughter online and it allowed me to apply 3 gift cards. It was really easy. It would not work for $+miles reservations, but it was no problem on a cash only reservation.

 

[LuckyMamaInDE]

Thanks @SouthFayetteFan for starting the new thread! I like the stickies, especially the abbreviations because those darn amex cards trip me up

I just wrote myself a reminder note to go back to the old thread for the post about using United MPX app. I've got to start using that!

Discover isn't limited to household, you can each get it. I concur with @platamama , it'd be easier if it came in as new money. I found it faster for mine to setup initial funding as a small amount, like $50, then setup another transfer for the large balance. I got both within a few days and the bonus posted next day - 5 business days total between opening and bonus because we were fortunate enough to have the full amount in cash still, so I only needed one transfer.
