I love credit cards so much! v2.0 (see first page for add'l details)

[reliev]

yeah good point I have so many cards now that I only apply to maybe 2 a year...

If it doesn't have an AF its hard not to keep it.

I just got my Hilton Aspire card in the mail and the printed card member agreement says $0 for the first year, then $450. I've been holding my breath!

Okay, a few more questions. Thank for your patience.
1. PC to CF is okay if P2 already has 1 CF?
2. Will the UR on the CSP I'm PCing to a new CF transfer to that new CF?
3. Could I transfer the UR to existing P2 CF before I PC to a new CF (can you tell I'm worried about losing my stash with a PC?)?
4.

Can you please explain this further? I'm lost.
5. Can I PC the CSP to new CF over SM?

Thanks so much!

You've gotten good replies so far. I'll just echo them.
1. Yes, it's fine. I have 2 CFs, one was a PC from a CSP.
2. Yes, the URs will stay with the card
3. You don't need to, but you can if you want.
4. Yep, it gives you the CSR PC avenue without having a new application to go through, as explained by our benevolent dictator.
5. You need to call it in.

The other things I would consider are:
- Chase allows transfers from one person to another in the same household. On the very slight, (and paranoid!), chance that Chase changes this, will it matter to you who has the CSR when you eventually get one? If so, then the URs should be pooled in that person's CF. I could see Chase taking away the person to person transfer; I think it's unlikely for them to take away an individual's ability to transfer between their own cards. (otherwise, look out, mutiny will ensue!)
- If you're not concerned about your 5/24 status, then I would PC the CSP to a CF to leave P2 the opportunity to apply for a CFU with a SUB in the future. Once you are holding a specific card then you cannot receive the SUB for that card. Although you could always PC it to something else so that you can apply for the new card with a SUB, but that would add one more step. Since there's already a CF in the account, that rules out any SUB for a CF anyway. Does that make any sense?

@Breck I'm still waiting for mine, but the PDF on my online account has the waived annual fee for the first year.

Birdies -- does anyone has a referral link they can pm me? I'm branching out from Rothy's! Also would love to hear opinions on comfort of these shoes.

Southwest Airlines & Chase Promotion
To find out if you are eligible, login to your Southwest account, go to "My Account" and click on "Promotions". I see the following promo:

Earn a 25% bonus - Register to earn up to 25,000 bonus points this year.
When you have at least 35,000 points post to your Rapid Rewards® account between 12/1/19 and 2/29/20 under the category of “Credit Card,” you’ll be eligible for a 25% bonus (up to 25,000 bonus points). For example, if you have 12,000 points from your Rapid Rewards Credit Card post to your account each month during December, January, and February, you’ll earn 9.000 bonus points from Southwest. Those 9,000 bonus points will count towards Companion Pass, too!

The "minimum amount" may vary. Mine says 35,000 but I know somebody else said there's was 25,000. If you're eligible, share what your "Terms and Conditions" were so we can compare! 35k points sounds like a lot BUT if I were to sign-up for the SW Performance Biz card now I would earn 75k points there between the bonus and base spend. That would then qualify me for a 25% bonus of 18,750 points! So that would mean almost 94k points from one sign-up. Aside from somebody earning a signup bonus during that time frame, I'm not sure there's any other realistic way to earn 35k SW points that makes sense unless you spammed facebook with your support link, lol!

At any rate - check to see if you're eligible and share details if you are!

Thanks! DH has the 25k. That will work nicely as we are working on his MSR.

I'm following mine on the UPS "Follow My Delivery" and it's taking forever! Seriously, I could have walked to the UPS truck and gotten it by now.

Since there are lots of us with tween/teen boys, DS never wears but now in order to take advantage of out of uniform opportunities, he needs. Any recommendations on brands your boys like? He is still in a boys size.

Amex accounts still active as of a couple of minutes ago! And I did get some of the offers others have mentioned like Best Buy and PF Chang so it seems Amex still likes me (I know, Amex likes you until they don't!).

No SW offers for DH or me.

I've watched the tracker circling all around my neighborhood in the morning, but then go somewhere else and not make it to me until 5 pm.

UPS Follow My Delivery - a blessing and a curse.

OK I have a problem with an order return from Target. I'm wondering what to do next- SO I got my Kitchenaid mixer (woohoo deal!) online order, and I mistakenly thought a part was missing. So I online chatted, and rep started the return process,and initiated a new mixer to be shipped to me. All of this took a while,and literally before I ended the chat, I had located the part (that wasn't really missing) and I told rep never mind,etc. She said it was all in motion now, but no worries, I could bring the unopened new item back to any target store.
In all of this I used my Target debit card. So I can see the original order pulled from my bank account. Today I tried to return item at the store,I had the new invoice slip that came with item. Manager said they had no idea what to do with this,or how to return it,since it only shows as one purchase on my account. (purchase date Oct. 29)
I'm thinking maybe try calling at some point when I have the time? Possiby trying to return to store again,and bring BOTH Invoices? In writing this out,I'm thinking maybe I should have just brought it to store with the original invoice and returned (?) but I don't need my money back..... do you see my conundrum here? any ideas?

Throw the replacement one on the counter and run away! Like reverse shoplifting!

Sorry, no real advice. I can see why that's a but of a mess though. I'm actually a bit amazed that Target was able to help you get your (unneeded) replacement. I despise their website so I guess I am shocked that anything IT related from them could be useful. Having said that, I'm not surprise that someone from there told you to do something in store that store personnel would have no idea how to handle.

Worst case, maybe you have TWO brand new mixers?

I got the SW 6000 RR minimum promotion. Do you think that counts card anniversary RR’s? I didn’t see anything the terms about it, but it’s possible I missed it. My biz card anniversary is in Jan.

 

[afan]

Really? Will that work? I will try it in another phone I have. If it works, I'll try upgrading to the phone I want.

I did the same when I got my new phone off amazon. However I also learned that while I saved money I got a huge hassle when my phonr had issues after the 1st 30 days so after the return. Amazon wouldn't help and at&t wouldn't help aside from troubleshooting the phone. I had to send it to LG to have them fix it. Thankfully my old phone was still useable with clear packing tape holding the screen on since it took a week. My future phones will prob come from at&t cause they would have juat swapped it for a new one.

Just catching up as I worked the elections yesterday -

I’m jealous you got to do P Flyers LOL. As an adult who just travels solo or with other adults (none of us 3 “kids” in my fam have kids yet!) I’m/we’re not allowed to fly it and always joke how we wish they had a Rent-A-Kid option

I've never been on it either...wish they would specify an hour a day just for adults!

I don’t think so. It says it needs to say credit card.

 

[disfanforlife]

I don't but I'm adding the ones that expire first so at least they will fall off soon.

I didn’t know that was something that would help get better offers. Going to load mine up now in hopes of getting new ones!

[disfanforlife]

mine says ...Earn a 25% bonus when 6,000 points post from my SW card from 12/1-2/29

Mine says the same.
