I love credit cards so much! v4.0 - 2021 (see first page for add'l details)

We haven't gotten a lot of instant approvals on Chase biz lately either.

I did get instant approval on the Venture X this morning!! The credit line is absurd LOL. Now how fast can they get it here?

Congrats!

Congrats!

Crazy it even lets your generate support links right away.
It says to come back later to view the travel portal though.

Guessing you mean 2022/2023. Almost 2 years of CP vs less than 10k in points seems like an easy choice. But your years have me confused and I can't remember if there's 4 of you so use for both of you to have CP at the same time. I would guess since you are both going for it but if not I'd have you get it for 2022/2023 since you were already approved and have P2 do it for 2024/2025. No reason to both have it if you are just 2.

Now if you really meant 2023/2024 and will fly enough next year get it now. And then you can get it in 2025/2026.

Yeah I really mucked that up by putting the wrong years .

Yes there are 4 of us and thank you for confirming what I was thinking.

I'm tempted to apply but I'm going to hold off until I finish my Hilton bonus (3K more).

Will you be posting those links on Dischurners?

Came here to ask for a link so definitely post it on reddit. You did.

I did already

I see this in their mumbo jumbo, I had a regular Venture in early 2020, this better not disqualify me LOL, now that I got instant approval.

The bonus may not be available for existing or previous account holders.

P2 is approved for Venture X (With an absurd limit)!

I put up a support link and I may have even figured out how to not do a raw link this time.

The $89 card is my FAV! The GE/TSA, cell phone coverage, and FNC! I love it, LOL.

It appears cell phone coverage is going away, does that change your tune at all?
It looks like the $49 card had it too, as I got 4 emails for all 4 of our accounts, stating cell phone coverage is ending. I see the free nights are the same value on both cards, need to decide if I really want to pay 4 fees per year to IHG, and need to decide soon.

I also was approved for Venture X this morning with a very high credit limit!!

this MSR is gonna kill me, I am very impatient and like to blow through them quick. That's not going to happen on this one LOL.

When do new approved Chase card applications show up in your online account? Is it immediate or is it after you physically receive the card to activate it?

Oh I hope not! We’ve got an ancient Venture that we’ve held on to for the credit history. Hoping that doesn’t disqualify us from getting the SUB.

Mine have always been in my online account before the card arrived.

I also just got approved for the Chase United Biz Card. (Trying to get flights to Europe and don't want to use my UR's if possible). Figured I can at least Venmo most of that card. Then DD20 will have Tuition and Books coming due in December/January so that will use up a good part of the Venture X. Only reason I got it now was because of the tuition and we get 6 months instead of 3, so that is nice.

So my son's new hockey rink finally reopened. I was EXCITED to see there is a staples 1 mile from the rink. I rolled over, grabbed 5 VGC walk up the the register and I'm told I can't buy them, the limit is 1. Now they didn't have any Staple signage up either. I pulled up the ad and showed where it states limit 5. The cashier then says, well the policy changed 3 mos ago, the ad isn't up to date. I'm like this is YOUR AD from the website. Then the manager comes over and says "it's HIS store, so HIS policy" is to only allow 1 card so others can get one and they don't sell out. I showed him again the STAPLES ad, but he flat out refused to honor it (he was very much on a power trip). I bought the 1 VGC, but then actually did the survey leaving terrible feedback. My BF said I should have demanded their names and called corporate since it's in the weekly ad.

I just know I won't be bothering going there. I was hoping to knock out another $1k of the $3700 left on my CIC #2. I saw Meijer has $10 off VCG, but you have to go through the checkout lanes, and yesterday the 3 that were open had about 20 people waiting in each. I need OD/OM to run a few more sales.

In other non-CC news....I dove into the world of crypto mining last month. Back in May the BF and I bought helium miners. They aren't cheap ($480) and take forever to get here, but my miner has made $828 in about 1.5 months. I'm torn on cashing out my investment, or letting it ride, LOL.

I was coming here to post this as well. I have the free IHG and the $89 one. I'll keep the $89 for the FNC, as I can use that at some nicer properties. I'll keep the free since there's no harm in keeping it as well. But now I need to find another cellphone protection card. I know it was the "world mastercard" offering the cellphone protection. I wonder if other cards (like the freedom flex, and the AAviator had it at one point) will be losing it too. Hmmm.

Congrats on the approvals!

Just FYI that the support has this in the terms:
"Since this program is about new people joining Capital One, you must be a new Capital One credit card customer for your friend to receive a bonus as part of the referral program. If you already have a credit card with Capital One, your friend will not receive a referral bonus."

I see this in their mumbo jumbo, I had a regular Venture in early 2020, this better not disqualify me LOL, now that I got instant approval.

The bonus may not be available for existing or previous account holders.

I would think that applies specifically to the Venture X.

Should be right when it is approved unless for some reason it does not properly link and if that happens be prepared to be transferred a lot until someone can fix it.
