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.

A very nice Rep called me back after I tweeted, and apologetically told me that since they are giving me the 40k, they cannot credit the AF.  She also mentioned that they did just waive the AF on my M&M but US Air is more difficult. :-\ :-\

They called me back as well and credited the AF as a one time courtesy.

From what I have read, it's unlikely they will approve you for the card if you still have one open.

Just called and got the AF waived. Rep told me that I would lose the benefits and not get the 40K and then said let me see what I can do and put me on hold. Came back and said she was able to waive the fee. I just paid my bill as it's due in a few days and then hopefully the credit will be on the next statement. Will wait a few days and then check my US account to see if I actually got the points.

There's a loophole that someone mentioned earlier on the thread which i used successfully. Spend more than $89 your first month and pay it off before the statement closes. They will treat is as if you paid the AF, and therefore post your miles. Once your miles post, call them within 60 days of opening the card, and they will waive the fee. I got downgraded, so I don't know about waiving the fee and keeping the card, but this is a way to get the bonus without paying the AF.

I got a letter explaining my denial of the US airways card a week after canceling one "our records show that you've already established the maximum allowable number of this product with us". Is this based on the t&c or is there a way to fight this?
