I got rid of my during Covid and scoped up the CSP @ 100k a few months ago. For me, I could justify the increased AF.

God damn. I forgot to unfreeze my credit before applying and just got denied lmao

sure you did

we all know you're a bum

 

[Hisma]

I thought I was gonna have trouble racking up 15k on my ink business to get the 100k points. I've done almost 9k first month.

 

[AndyP]

God damn lol they say I’m not eligible for the bonus anymore since I got declined. Make sure to unfreeze before you apply

Did Chase recently limit using rewards points to pay yourself back?

Ugh I should probably get that cap one card, but I already have like 1.3 million Capone points that I haven't used

Bro, go on a vacation.

 

[Cold Brew]

Bro, go on a vacation.

I've been trying

 

[bearsdidit]

I've been trying

We went two years without a vacation due to Covid but it felt great to get away again.

Capital One Venture X is no joke. Applied on Wednesday and the card arrived Saturday. I think CSR did the same, but its fascinating how quick they operate.

Now need to lower my CSR to CSP.

Patiently waiting for my GasBuddy card

 

[JeffSTL]

Got approved for the SW Premier through my EIN

Just like I thought, I'm up against that Chase credit wall tho....they lowered my CL $5k on a biz card under my SSN which is a different account to give me $5k of credit here. Kind of nervous about getting the personal card now a week later, but hopefully the timing isnt an issue and hopefully if they finally deny due to credit, I can call for recon and get them to shift credit if they dont automatically do it themselves. No reason I need $20k-$30k limits on all these cards.

I’m gonna drop mine to freedom unlimited once I use the points

Wasn’t it limited categories anyways? I’m sitting on 2.2m UR points that might take me a while to redeem on travel. I could blow a bunch on the 1.5x towards apple but don’t really need anything. I don’t want to pay myself back $100 on groceries at a time

 

[LOLZILLA]

Did anyone else get 3 small bottles of champagne in the mail from Chase and www.thesipsociety.com in the mail?

No. Not yet. Do you have to be signed up for it or something?

Yes and it fucking sucks. The program is basically worthless now and I have nothing to spend my points on

These pay yourself back categories are a joke
