I just got the first statement on my new Barclay Jet Blue card. I met the $1k MSR but the SUB points haven’t posted. Anyone know how it works with Barclay/jet blue? When do points usually post?

Barclays require you to meet the SUB and pay the annual fee. The points never post with your first statement, but you should get them with the next one.

I think DH and I have accumulated too many Biz Plats that we haven't cancelled over the last 3 years out of fear of retribution from Amex. I feel like I'm always spending $95 worth of AF per card after the credits we're able to use.

Anyway, I think I'm going to close some that just had the AFs hit as soon as use up Dell credits. Would you close the older ones or more recent ones? I was wondering what Amex would dislike least. I feel like they like it when you keep a card open over a year

My opinion is probably the older the better-to avoid the perception of gaming and remember, if you've taken a retention offer, ensure you've kept it open after a year from accepting that offer.

I was just able to apply for the CIP 120k offer by logging into my Chase account, choosing "business cards" under "explore products" and then "take a quiz." Unfortunately, I wasn't auto approved. Fingers crossed.

Please remind me: If I want to product change my CSP, I should wait until the AF posts, get the anniversary bonus URs and then switch. The AF should be refunded (prorated). Correct?

I recently got DH the CSP with my support. We don't need two and will keep his. I plan to have him support me when there is another elevated offer (after my anniversary date). It has been 48 months since my last CSP bonus has been earned.

Congrats ……applied for the 100,000 offer with P2 support link…instant approval…Will try to match to the 120,000 when it’s public

Did you also use your $50 hotel credit? I'm considering going in the opposite direction and after I pay my annual fee in November, upgrading to CSR for a year, and trying to double dip plus get value out of the 1.5. Still got months to go.

And yes, they will prorate your fee. My other option would be downgrade to a freedom and app for the CSR as November will be 4 years. We will see.

It took 8 weeks to the day I'm about to cancel this card I think.

should i cancel before the AF hits? i haven't used it yet or do they have a grace period? I may downgrade but the other card seems meh.

I did not use my hotel credit. I have until 4/18 - so still time to use it before I downgrade. Thanks for the reminder.

I have definitely canceled one of these after the AF hits and I have received the anniversary points. I think you have 30 days for AF refund, but not sure if that is from posting date or statement date.

I think I have to correct myself. Chase will refund fee inside 30 days. Amex prorates the fee. Can someone confirm I'm stating correctly as I don't want to confuse anyone.

Amex Bonvoy Biz 5 FNCs

P2 is getting pop-up (not eligible for bonus pop-up due to history of...) using support link. Also pop-up trying an affiliate link (OMAAT). Not a Bonvoy eligibility issue. Currently has 4 Amex credit cards. Know of any links which bypass this pop-up? Just closed an older credit card just in case credit limit was an issue as this was applied for under a small business using EIN.

I too was getting pop-up on support link but was successful with affiliate link, though it went pending and was approved the next business day.

It would be really nice if I had two sets of 5 FNCs to work with.

Not familar with Amex, but with Chase if you PC at any point they will prorate the refund…And pretty sure you are correct full refund within 30 dys

Did you try no support and no affiliate? I got the popup with support link, but then approval without support just going through Amex.

But will the support payout decrease then as well?
