I love credit cards so much!

[palhockeymomof2]

Credits finally posted for the Staples 30 percent off on my CFU and CF. My Amex airline Plat credits finally posted as well. Bought 2 AA $100 gift cards. I'm just waiting for my Saks credit to post. I scored 3 MAC lipsticks with it. I also scored the Staples and Lowes 10 percent off on my BBP but no plans on what to buy just yet.

I also noticed that my annual fee for my CSR has not posted yet even though I opened the card in October 2016. I did pay the 2016 and 2017 annual fees (both posted in October of 2016 and October of 2017), so maybe luck? Anyone else not seeing their annual fee post on the CSR?

I also received 20,000 MR for spending $3,000 on my Amex Platinum (retention offer). They have posted! Also plan to use the Amex offer for Viator. Booking a day trip to Quebec City and Montmorency Falls from Montreal for this August.

I will be 3/24 on February 1. 2 Chase cards are falling off on January 11 and January 13th. I am going for the CIP. Any tips for me?

You may already know, but use your name and SS number as the business name and EIN...nothing else...if your chase credit limits are close to 50% of your income reduce some to increase your chances of instant approval.
If you have a P2 with a CIP...use their referral

does the self referral have the 50k mr on the rose amex? The public is 25k mr.

That's what I'm most worried about. I don't want to go through all of this and not even get a Disney hotel. Those dates were January 28-31. The other 3 nights for our trip had no Disney hotels listed on Hotel Canary. Thank you!

I believe it is AKL as well based on the rating of 8 and the 200 reviews. That matches and the price matches Disney's akl price for standard view those nights.

I got an email from Plastiq for a $20 Amazon GC for taking a survey.

DH is staying at a Hyatt for a conference in April, so he signed up for a Hyatt account. Which of course starts my wheels spinning as to whether we should get him a Hyatt card eventually

I remember the mess you had and how it took forever for them to fix it. I totally get it. I usually want something like that, too. I love the Epcot resorts.

We are Epcot Resort people too.

 

[disneymagicgirl]

what are their dates? I can check priceline/hotwire.

Ouch. I hope it’s just all the anxiety that the charges are taking longer than usual to credit. I was so sad when I read HA gift certificates no longer credited, so I feel for our Delta hostages. But let’s be honest, those $50 increments are a PITA.

Do we know if this is true on the Aspire too? I have delta as my airline. I bought my $250 and got my money back 2 weeks ago. But if they don't, then I need to change to AA for this year.

unsure... currently just waiting for for more DPs. its unsure if its on delta side that changed(gc site) or amex side...
chances are, if things changed, it would be delta. i think we need to make a decision by Jan 30th right?

Do we think SW is still safe?

I made two $200 purchases yesterday for my Plat and Biz Plat, so I'll post if/when I see them credit.

 

[disneymagicgirl]

Lol still haven’t decided. My TA just quoted us $1800 to stay all 6 nights at WL. We’ve never stayed there before though and I kind of want to be in the Epcot area but that’s a pretty good price

The outdoor restaurant, Geyser Point I think, is so yummy. I was supposed to stay there on the magical rate then too...well our dates would have overlapped. I just switched to CBR though because it saves me $550 which more than covers the DAH tickets I decided to add last minute. Never stayed at CBR but the new lobby looks amazing. I will still be headed over to WL for a snow white dinner...will keep my eyes peeled for you!

Thanks! I need to do mine on the Plat and Gold.

I have to do the gold too, but decided to try the Plats first. With things changing so quickly, I didn't want to wait too long, but also didn't want to jump in head first (irony is you'd think I'd test with the Gold first and not the Plats ).

SW and AA should be safe, no news on those... its most likely a change on delta if something did change...
I was thinking about buying an gift card with my delta AO but notice the CashStar name... which usually wont trigger AOs...

its unsure either if PGC will still work as i pretty sure 99% of ppl buy EGCs. give a few days... we will have something conclusive...

Latest DPs on FT say yes: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ame...rsement-reports-wn-fl-southwest-only-100.html

Nice! I hope I get an email.

 

[speedyfishy]

not to be a pain but how do i self refer?

does the self referral have the 50k mr on the rose amex? The public is 25k mr.

It’s 50k MR. Go to the Blue Business and refer a friend from that. Send it to your DW but then click that link and it should say looking for another card. Hit that and it will show you all the ones with a referral offer.

 

[trstno1]

sooo... ur suppose to eat those coins then right?

In other news, ppl are reporting amex plat incrementals dont work with delta anymore... My guess is that delta GCs are from cashstar now?

I purchased 4 $50 Delta cards with my AmEx Biz Platinum on 1/3/19, and received the credit on 1/7/19. I have also received credit for 2 $100 AA gift cards purchased on a separate AmEx Biz Platinum on 1/3, and for $100 Southwest gift card purchases on two separate Rose Gold Cards. I have not yet received credit for a $200 Southwest card purchased with an AmEx Personal Platinum on 1/1/19.

I need to read the posts, but I believe people are saying it doesn't work if you purchase with the app, but still works if you purchase via the website.

Oops - repeat post.
