Topic Wiki

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.

I did you different email addresses for the US and NFL. However I did that with the 2nd US air too but denied.
I also added the +4  zip code in the 3rd app  (NFL instant approval).

**Important datapoint just in**:

Double browser on 2 of the same US Air card resulted instant on the first and denial on 2nd (4 or 5 seconds apart, separate browsers).
Instant approval came back fast, so that is why the delay on the second app.

I called recon and he confirmed duplicate app and they won't process two identical cards and due to policy they could not approve. I probed the rep on if I were to apply for a different Barclay's card like hotel, etc if the policy still applies. He said that is ok.

 I hung up and applied for the NFL $400, why not, they already pulled 30 minutes prior. Instant approval on that with 40k confirmed on account along with my other (still open) NFL $200 account from 2 months ago and my US Air new line approved today.

This could be a game changer!

You have the 40k link for nfl?

I applied for the 60k offer and got approved for the lower level card.
Do you guys think it was a mistake from my end to not apply for the 40k offer?

Anyone know if the 5000 mile reduction offer (with a cc user) is only good on us airways metal or will it take a 5000 miles reduction on partners like united too? (eg. could i get jfk-sfo in F for 45k?)

Interesting. I think my 60k offer still said you get 40k even for the lower tier.

It doesn't say it, but it doesn't explicitly state otherwise either.

on the application it says "Offer available to Dividend Miles members currently with Chairman's Preferred Status only" what does that mean
