Yeah. I got the $100 offer in the mail a month or two ago in the mail. I just checked my email today and only saw the $50 (or $49?) offer. I decided to call and the CSR said I was still eligible for the $100. Might be worth a call to Chase. The Chase Disney rep I talked to was super friendly and Disney-like too. Very easy and pleasant transaction.
I got a mailer for the $100 on Friday. I had multiple mailers and e-mails for the $50 prior.
Crisis semi-averted! I have a bunch of charges from speculatively booking and cancelling Disney reservations for this trip and this Labor Day too... so I just redeemed against two of them that added up to the total
PSA since so many of us are parents on this thread and I’ve just spent countless hours with more to go plus some of my own funds but next week is staff appreciation week. Even if you don’t get your child’s teacher a gift, please consider writing him/her a heartfelt thank you note which I am sure would be much appreciated for what is sometimes a very thankless job.
Oh great, thanks so much for sharing your experience! I know what you mean, I don't dare ask on reddit. This place is the best
*sigh* That card is waiting for me when I get home to make a $5k spend on and it’s questionable if I’ll even get the right bonus.... Now to decide if I say screw it & close it right away in order to hit the bonus on another card.
Normally I’d be rather pissed but I’m in the Seychelles right now and it took me about 5 seconds after hitting the ground to slip into Island Mode.
View attachment 398318 Cheers all! Ooh! I flew Q-Suites so I’ll do a little write up on that in the next few days
I've done reading on FT and Reddit and it seems like it is a giant guarded State secret with no real answers given. It's all "Do your research." How can I do that if nobody takes the time to answer questions? Lol I have a few questions but is it not kosher to ask them here? Should I be doing this in a pm?"Hi...I want to reload my Serve card" (Dollar General will swipe it for you, Family Dollar you can swipe yourself)
"Please swipe you card...great...how much would you like to add?"
"$500 please!!!!!!!"
"Great...go ahead and swipe!" (VGC or MCGC and enter the pin).."Thanks have a nice day!"
You then run outside andto the next location.
You will get an email that funds were added, along with the receipt from the merchant.
Thank you! That does sound pretty similar to our situation. I’m just happy that we somewhat know the current owner and she has DVC so she’s gotta be an alright person right? Lol
This is so true. Too many times I see posts bashing on another person about staying in a value. We love pop and would gladly stay there again. Even if you do deluxe only trips it doesn’t give you the right to make someone else feel like crap for booking a valueCan I just throw out that one thing I love about this thread is that no one tell's anyone else they are wrong for liking any of the hotels? So often on other threads it feels like people want to jump you if you don't stay Deluxe Club Level every tripor one hotel is better than another NO MATTER WHAT AND YOU ARE WRONG IF YOU DISAGREE!!
We are Pop fans but biased as it's the first place we stayed (also, I always wanted to stay at one of the All Star resorts for the large Disney figures when I was growing up, and we've always been in the 50s section so I get that with the Lady and the Tramp figures, which is one of my favorite movies
They mentioned owning the cleaning system at least. I’m not sure about the actual salt. That could be something we ask them here soon.
This is a hard question to answer in a bubble. I try not to state “absolute truths” as everybody is welcome to do whatever they feel is best. As I said before, I’m adhering strictly to a “3 months between” rule. I have way too much runway left with Chase to risk a shutdown over 30 days in my eyes. If the loophole gets shut down, oh well - I’d move on to other Chase cards.
without more info anybody would be purely guessing
They had some kind of cleaning mechanism that crawled around the bottom of the pool. They said that was included with the house and we did have it included on the contract. I’ll be the one taking care of our pool, too since I was the one that wanted it

I would be happy to give a slightly more educated answer if you provided your last 24 months of cards in the recommended format of the 2nd sticky
In your situation I’d feel very comfortable with a literal 3 months. (ie May 10th). I’d honestly probably feel comfortable right now (like today! Even though that breaks my 3mo rule), I’m not sure who issues that Amazon card (you didn’t list the bank
) but you either have 1 or 2 Chase cards in the past year. AND really only 2 cards period in the past year that Chase can see. That’s a far cry from other people asking for advice on this loophole
