To signup for credit cards you can click here or on the “other credit cards” tab on top of the DansDeals logo banner to view links for card offers. Then just click on the link to “View all card offers by issuing bank” and scroll down to view all card offers from the bank of your choice.

Pulls from TU in NJ, NY , FL , PA

Recon 866 408 4064 (might pull from Experian)

For those who want to churn and/or want to get the bonus without paying the annual fee: Wait until the A/F gets charged, pay it off with the rest of the bill, and the sign-up bonus will post (at the end of that billing cycle). Then call to close the account and ask to be refunded. They can't charge an A/F for a card you aren't using. You will not lose the miles once they are in your US Airways account.

It seems that if after you use the card you just let it sit unused for a couple months, they will then email you with a targeted offer for 15,000 more points for spending $750 a month for three months.

now that I see this I indeed didn't get the referral bonus..

I referred 5 people before the end of Dec.  They told me in an SM they will be applying the bonuses in Feb and Mar.

When i tried to churn the card, I was declined. Called recon and they were able to see that I recently had the card and downgraded to arrival. I was told the current 50k offer is for new customers only so they could not approve.
Will HUCA, but has anyone had a similar experience?

I plan on canceling my card - and recapturing the AF - today. Will I lose my companion tickets? If so, what do you recommend doing to retain those?

Have the Twitter waivers been before or after the AF posts (I understand that it's before paying the AF)?

I did:


Wow! Just got approved for the card! Didn't think that would work out.

I'd applied for the card first last March, but wanted to try and get the bonus before it went away. I cancelled the card and reapplied, but the recon rep offered to reopen the card for me, and I was caught off guard and that's what happened.

Based off of what others reported, last week I downgraded to the no-fee Arrival, as well as lowered my CL on my other Barclays cards. I applied a second time, but I was denied: after calling in I was told it was because the computer had identified me as a current cardholder (I wasn't patient enough to wait a few days: probably should have done that). They told me there was no pull

I tried applying again (3rd time!) on Sunday, but the system denied me (no pull) because I'd applied for the card within 30 days.

I just called recon, and hoped that I could wing it. He told me I'd been declined because I had the card, and I said I didn't have it now but may have had it in the past. He put me on hold and after a few minutes said:
...
He put the app in again (4th time, but only 2nd pull), and after answering a few uncomfortable questions I was approved!

No, and it's against the official ddf rules to discuss it.

You needed an email. IIRC, the referral program is over anyways.
