Too bad I am locked out of Hilton forever LOL.Some nice elevated Hilton offershttps://www.doctorofcredit.com/incr...surpass-and-business-cards-via-referral-link/
Thanks. I never would have found it. Went in through DH's CSR, bonus was only 5000, then went through his CFU, was 7500 listed. Clicked on the left 'shop Motley Fool' and didn't get the $99 offer, went back and clicked on the right where it said $99 and stuck in endless spinning wheel. Beginning to think I am not destined for this offer! Going to try a different browser next.It's in the Ultimate Rewards portal, use the drop down menu - "Earn more points"
I clicked the right that had the $99 offer and my points are pendingThanks. I never would have found it. Went in through DH's CSR, bonus was only 5000, then went through his CFU, was 7500 listed.

Yeah, I noticed that too. First try I clicked left side and was offered memberships starting at $199 and into the thousands. This was from my CSP and the offer was 6,000 URs.Thanks.

Couldn't get in with Firefox, got in with Chrome to fill out the sign up form, but then it timed out before it gave me a confirmation, but probably it went through because DH got an alert that his card was used to spend $105.93 at Motley Fool.I clicked the right that had the $99 offer and my points are pending
60k and 75k? or 6k and 7.5k?Yeah, I noticed that too. First try I clicked left side and was offered memberships starting at $199 and into the thousands. This was from my CSP and the offer was 60k URs.
Went back to Chase and started with my CF (plain) and clicked right side where it said$199$99 and got a 75k UR offer.
Ah, yeah, I just fixed that. I'm just used to SUB offers in the thousands. Thanks60k and 75k? or 6k and 7.5k?
That would have been an awesome bonus!!Ah, yeah, I just fixed that. I'm just used to SUB offers in the thousands. Thanks
Same here, and I can't find where the Pending Points are either.I was able to get one of us signed up, and immediately got the Amex offer redeemed email, but I don't see any points pending on Chase. Where do they hide them?
I was factoring in the stock profits I'll reap by following Motley Fool's stock picksThat would have been an awesome bonus!!
I am guessing you aren’t a fan of their advice? Just wondering if I should even bother reading their report. Seems mostly information that is out there for anyone without having to pay for a service. At least it’s free for a year!I was factoring in the stock profits I'll reap by following Motley Fool's stock picks
They've been in the online financial advice biz for a long time. I'm gonna try some of their picks and see how it works out, compared to what I have picked otherwise. If it really does me well, I might renew it next year?I am guessing you aren’t a fan of their advice? Just wondering if I should even bother reading their report.

YAY! I just did this on my CF (7500 UR) and immediately got the Amex email. I checked for Pending UR points (I found the place where they would be listed) but there is nothing there yet, except a note saying it could take weeks for this bonus to show up. Thanks to all for the tips!Same here, and I can't find where the Pending Points are either.
ETA: Also set a calendar reminder a year from now to cancel Motley Fool (assuming I don't want to keep it)
WOW! You got that very quickly!I just got an email from Chase that I used the offer! Now to go do one for me.
Yeah, now I did mine, and I didn't get the Amex email immediately like he did. I got a "your card may not have been present" email instead. Hope it comes soon. I am impatient and hate waitingWOW! You got that very quickly!
I did some research on this yesterday because I just signed up for the AMEX Plat and I get 10x MRs for gas and groceries for the first 6 months, up to $15k. Probably the most I would spend on those two categories over 6 months is only $2500 so I was hoping to buy some GCs. I know per the black & white terms this shouldn't fly, but there seemed to be some DPs indicating that if you bought the store's own GCs (like Trader Joe's GCs from Trader Joe's) and maybe added a banana so that the total wasn't an even number, it might work.I feel like I should know this or be able to find it, but I just can't seem to! Any DP on whether I can buy gift cards at grocery stores and use my Platinum Amex for 10X MR? I feel like I heard no...but then I think that was maybe just to make the MSR, which I've done? I need to buy about $1000 in gc today and I don't want to use my Amex if it isn't going to trigger (or will be clawed back). I'll use my Freedom (where I'm still 5x UR)
