I love credit cards so much! v6.0 - 2023 & 2024 (see first page for add'l details)

[Sheree]

just did support from DH and got instant approval for cip! 6k credit limit which helps make meeting spend easier.

after I get card I'll sm to match 120k offer.

need to replenish my URs! used them for La Campagnie flight to Paris in October and ewr-lisbon-barc-ewr this month.

thanks for the advice

If the 120K offer is showing on my account when I sign in, does that give me a good chance of getting approved? I will need a card for house taxes and insurance by September and that gives me until early October to meet the 8K spend.

Is it showing in your account as being pre approved? I had that end of first part of June and was approved right away. I was in a little shock it popped up but figured I might as well take advantage.

Yes, it is.

I also met spend on SW Priority Biz and CIP way too fast. Both within a month. CIP within a week.... Since both DH and I recently got Chase Cards I applied for a US Bank Triple Cash Biz Card - $6000 spend in 180 days for $750 Statement Credit. I recently had 2 US Bank Biz cards. Used the statement credits to buy Disney Gift Cards. Recently bought AP's for me and DD. So, will use these for food.

I have that showing in my account, but I really want to use P2 support. Do you think I could do support and get a match to my preapproved offer? I have no SUB right now, making me crazy.

It's not certain but I've never had Chase deny me when requesting a match. Even when I applied months before. I was approved for the CIP in early May so when the offer goes public I'm going to try and match. Even if they say no you'll get 140k by using the support link.

Really weird thing. I saw on DoC that 300+ SLH properties had been loaded to Hilton, but not yet available for points bookings. Checked Tabacon Thermal Resorts in Costa Rica and it is loaded but showing "not available." When I went through PointsYeah (thought I'd set up a pointsyeah alert), it showed as available, I clicked through and booked it on the Hilton site. Super weird. 80k pts per night!! Which after the recent Amex MR transfer promo, is about 28.5k MR per night.

ETA: screenshot of no availability on Hilton site

DoC had in a post the other day that it seems may 23rd is how far back they are matching. They've been updating their post about the offer with dps and stuff.

If anyone has Delta flights, you might want to check them. I just booked a flight to SFO for my DH which was $150 cheaper than yesterday. I also had booked him a flight to PDX last week and it was $100 cheaper today. It was easy to "change" the flight booked last week to the exact same flight and get an ecredit, but I did lose his seats with the change. I had to rebook his seats which might be an issue if there aren't any good seats left.

Anyone planning to apply the new CIP offer but also have a CIP currently open? Mine isn't a year until next month, but I'm desperate for an MSR.

Me. I have a CIP (July 2023) and CIC (Sept 2023) and a SW Biz (Dec 2023).

Home insurance bill hit my email this morning. No claims, 32% increase, with State Farm. No policy changes I'm aware off but I haven't actually reread the policy yet this morning.

I'm insured by State Farm in Maryland.

Replying to myself here: It seems as if there is an IT glitch as reported here:
https://travel-on-points.com/sapphire-preferred-bonus-issue/

From the article:
"The Chase supervisors informed them that there was a systemwide coding issue affecting June Sapphire applications. That is what is causing these Sapphire Preferred bonus issues."

I will wait it out for now.....then SM. I may have to have DH call if SM doesn't work.

Fingers crossed that if this information is accurate, it will correct itself.

If anyone else applied for the CSP in June - you should read this article and make sure you get your bonus.

Replying to myself again. The SUB points are now pending in my DH's account.

Never hurts to shop it! That's a big jump for someone outside of FL!

Schwab is good for foreign ATM. My only experience so far was Canada. Make sure your money is in the bank account not brokerage to have debit card access.

Fidelity T&C says something about they “may” charge. Everything story I’ve read says Fidelity hasn’t charged FTF but I went with Schwab since it was explicit.

yes that's what I'm seeing- I can do fidelity but it seems easy enough to open schwab and use that instead since there are no fees that I can see
***Schwab question- it seems it's also a brokerage account? Do I need to use that or do anything with it at the moment? I don't want or need another right now I just wanted checking

I thought so also. Waiting to see what my DD's increase is. She owns a rental in my area.

Ours went up a ton too in Illinois.

P2 has two Amex business platinums. We have a flight next May with our kids and my in-laws. Could I sign my in-laws up for CLEAR this calendar year and then sign up myself and P2 next year?

Ours skyrocketed in Wisconsin, too. Auto, home and umbrella. I hate insurance shopping!

Happening all over. I had my home and auto (and umbrella) with the same company (Travelers) for a couple of years. Price went up a lot with the November bill. Ended up switching to Erie. Overall price was lower, slightly better insurance coverage, and I get to use their stupid app to earn $130 a year back in gift cards for being a good driver. Woo hoo.
