I had it under my account also but want to wait until I can triple dip which I believe is not until the Dec timeframe.
Yeah, that's a card I definitely want to triple dip.

Applied for CIP, I didn't get an automatic 30-day or 7-10 day message like I have with my other cards just to verify my address but a "Decision Pending" page with a "please give our cs agents a call at XXX from mon-fri at your earliest convience" message. Is this normal?
Called the automated status line and got the 30 day response, same with email. Thinking of holding it out until it changes to 2 weeks or 7-10 days, but getting a little impatient! With both of my SW cards and CSR I had to call recon as they needed to confirm my address. I put my credit on a freeze since the Equifax fiasco last year which could be the reason why.
Just read on Reddit that verification office is open today.The “please call us immediately” message is almost always just to verify your identity, and they likely won’t question you about the application itself. I’m not sure if the verification office is closed today (holiday), but you may well be approved without having to call in. Good luck!
Unrelated note: have you heard anything about GameStop being hardcoded against GC>GC? Read that this happened last week.
So I called AMEX recon on Monday 1/12 on my wife's Blue Business Plus (BB+) application. I got them to recommend her to recon for a 5th card... This is the card we applied for by calling in to the targeted line and saying my friend recommended I see if any offers were available to me. It's been a whole week so I called today for a status update - the foreign sounding gentleman I talked to said it looks like the underwriters have completed this and I will be approved within 24-48 hours. That's a weird response (like if I'm approved...why am I not just approved now) but hey, I'll take it!I've been a little quiet lately...my recent update:
1) Failed recon with BofA on the Premium Rewards card. They reconsidered...and still denied me. Booooo!
2) Got a letter on my BofA business app looking for all kind of proof of my entity - yea not interested...so that will likely end in denial. It was a combined HP with the first denial though so no worries
3) Got AMEX to reconsider giving me 5 cards...Hoping for that BB+ card. Online Status site says In Process...waiting is soooo hard, lol.
4) If the BB+ fails my fallback is to max out the 5% categories on the Freedom this qtr and earn some URs. I hate to settle for a 7.5% return (assuming I'll redeem these through a CSR) but if that's all I can get I'll take it lol.
Huge THANKS!!!! to a couple of people who might've used my Southwest link on DISchurners. It could have come from r/churning too but I'd prefer to assume they came from one of you fine people

Yeah, it's $450.Is there an AF for this card?
Since I know a few people here have bought Costco Cash cards with Discover, etc... how long does it usually take to come?
Also, I think DH had an AMEX Platinum 100k offer in the mail yesterday...
I’ve seen that they can book economy over the phone, but I’m not sure about premium. I don’t see why they wouldn’t be able to if you feed them the flight details. They’re just an online travel agency. But I haven’t read any reports specifically about premium.
We are in London right now and just tried Norwegian for the first time. We had a *great* flight and really liked their premium class. The seats weren't lie flat, but they reclined a ton--more than typical premium economy. The service was the best I've had on any plane in a long time. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, especially given their cheap fares and ability to book one-way. The only issue is luggage. They have a 40lb limit in checked bags and a combined weight limit for carryons. Weigh very carefully at home as even premium class bags were weighed and tagged. My husband was really impressed with the dreamliner and commented that he felt much more refreshed than usual. Dreamliner's apparently use fresh air rather than recirculated, it's humidified differently and cabin pressure is lower than normal. Guy knowledge

We paid quite a bit for a refundable one-way flight in premium--I want to say in the $850 range--we weren't going for the cheapest fares on this one. We wanted the flexibility in case British Air did another upper class sale. I think they do sales fairly often, but with summer I'm not sure.I am considering norwegian also for a trip to Europe but im not seeing all these low fares people talk about.
Im seeing about 800 round trip to europe for somewhat specific dates in June. Maybe because it is summer?
I want to book them because they are one of the only 2 lines that fly DIRECT to Italy from lax..but at 800?
How long did you wait before you booked your fare? I'm thinking they are only going to get higher this point out.
I'm keeping in the game with business cards. Thought I had too much risk with Chase so went with SPG Biz.I'm in a rut and need a new card and I don't know what I want, which is incredibly rare for me.
I guess I've just been holding out for the Southwest cards because of their plans for Hawaii. I want the companion pass so I'm trying to keep my powder dry with Chase but I'm starting to lose my mind. And my husband hasn't had a new card in 10 months. I did get the Uber card in November but I feel like I'm going through withdrawal here.
30-some pages ago I mentioned the possibility of the Spirit card just to get to NOLA. My soul just wouldn't let me burn a credit pull on that, so here I wait, reading everyone else's approval stories. #FirstWorldProblems
