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.

+1
It seem that he was making the adjustment due to my call, but wouldn't have done it otherwise.

Based on this comment, I called Barclay a number of times and asked to change the closing date of the current statement, so the points should post faster. But they all said the change will only be effective next statement.

Has anyone tried this?

Regular CS (number on the back of the card).
If it's to open a new card, recon.

Long time ago used to be very possible now that is extremely unlikely that you will get it. Frontier could get you two free domestic round trip tickets.

Applied  for the 50k, immediately approved. No history with the bank.

Called on Friday to downgrade.  Card is open since July.  Rep said she's not seeing an option to downgrade to non AF version, and never heard of downgrading to Arrival. HUCA Monday?

Yes.
If no luck, ask for an account specialist/supervisor.

There is no USAir card without AF. Ask to be downgraded to no AF arrival or rewards card.

+1. I tried it one time while I had a us airways card and M&M card.
I then applied for both again and both were declined and I called up and they said no Hard pull being that it was declined due to a duplicate application.

Can I get approved if I currently have an open U.S. Airway card which I got about a year ago?
