Any update on what this is?
I just used a code I found for Avis it didn’t charge me underage fees and saved me around $60 on top of it for a 4 day rental. When I found it it just says use a Visa card which I did but I googled the code after and didn’t find much on it the awd# is B204400 y’all can try it out

If you can trade in a device (e.g. iPhone and port in an AT&T/Verizon line (can buy one on eBay) you might be eligible for a free iPhone 12 ($830 off after monthly credits).

If the device is for screen time then probably the one with the biggest display and/or most durable (though a case would solve that).

Oh, and btw, I chose the Revvl 4+ even though it was less $$$ than LG Stylo 6 and certainly the Iphone SE. Figured: for the screen - drop the Iphone. and For the Revvl 4+ because it was released in August of 2020. - More recent.

I paid $180 and my seller is sold out of that one. Can probably get an android S9 or one of the other qualifying devices (different list for each trade in promo) for less. But make sure your seller will send you an IMEI before shipping.

I paid more for a device I knew would pass their inspection, supposedly all they care about is cracked screen (or other major physical damage) and/or water damage, but I didn’t want to risk it. Device also has to not be iCloud locked (or whatever the android equivalent is) and IIRC not blacklisted by the carrier (e.g. bills not paid, stolen, etc).

The way I see it, t-mobile is giving me $830 and I won’t be able to switch the trade in device. So it was worth buying from a wholesaler/cell phone specialist that will give me what I’m expecting and I don’t save $50 but get screwed out of my $830.

Too many steps for me..  But, If your friend starts selling pm please. Maybe I'll buy one to have ready for the next promotion...

Its all what the system decides

Well I called again and was offered a courtesy $100 credit for my 9 years of being a loyal customer... Plus, she said its irrelevant to whether I keep the card or not. That I can still choose to close if I end up deciding so.. Which at this point, unless some bonus dell credits or wireless credits show up, I will be cancelling.

I heard that idea. I guess it would work for anything that offers a trade in. So for android users, also a Samsung s21.

Maybe next round I'll go that route. How much did you pay for the iphone 8  on ebay? Broken even works? Link to buy ome?

Yes. For me it was. I went for a larger screen, but we were talking freephone via statement credits for adding an additional line for 24 months.

Guess I got lucky. Or maybe it's the difference between first year and second year (or first time and second time) retention requests.
Not sure if anyone has any data points on that

Interesting.  Had some decent spend and no retention. 

In other news, Platinum consumer card - decent spend - got $500 credit.

Called and said the card is good, I'm going to be travelling soon, which was true but actually didn't use my amex in the end, and asked if they could "ease the pain"
I had used it for some dell purchases in Dec/Jan before I called them which prompted the agent to say "I see you're using you Amex offers"

Does anyone have any inside/updated information regarding new perks on the Amex Business Platinum. Annual fee coming up on the 23rd and no retention offer so far...
Want to know if its worth holding on and canceling (prorated refund) in a bit to see if some good perks will be added..

I had a $10 offer. On my AMEX Bonvoy
Plus there are a bunch of other ones. See here for other benefits. Like one year free for Blinkist.com . Probably each offer can get there own thread if there is not one existing already.
