Misc Credit Card Questions

[shulem92]

Can I join the pulls if they're from different banks, or is it only for another Chase card ?

Only same bank

See later post, did exactly that. Interesting that for next card they approved new credit line without shifting.

Reports are that CSR needs a bigger starting cl than other cards.

Is there a way to transfer SPG to United 1:1? I heard maybe you can do SPG to a different airline 1:1 and from that airline to SPG?? Tia

I have 4 SPG cards laying around from the 35k bonus. My question is I only really need one any advantage or disadvantage closing the rest?? I do not need the CL.

On a side note: I combined my SPGaccount with my wife's by mistake instead of transfer the points and they combined the credits towards  elite to a total of 20 nights and 8 stays.

Why not combine the credit, you can never know when it'll come in handy.

+1 and then close the other ones if you don't want them.

i can't combine my credit with my wife's, can I? I guess my question is, any reason to keep my wife's cards open or to close them ?

It will help your wife's credit to have more avail credit but if you can more her credit line diff Amex card that would be good

What airline allows you to transfer their points to another airline?

My brother got a notification that his slate will not be renewed after the expiration date of his current card (next month) due to inactivity. He called the number on the back of the card and was told there's nothing they can do for a renewal decline.
He has a large cl and will need the 0% checks in the near future.
Huca?

Did he try to shift the credit to another card?

I don't know. Would I be able to book a United flight with points on a different airline that transfer 1:1 from SPG?

Definitely try HUCA.  and even a 3rd call, if necessary.
If all else fails, call to see which other card he has that may have a low fee cash advance check and move the credit line there.  But be sure to move the credit line to some other card.
