Hundreds of chase cards a year? That would be impressive!
Take a look at the Chase Recon thread... It's gotta be at least dozens.
Add in all the other issuers, and it's gotta be 200+ over the course of 2011.
But how much money you make is irrelevant; it's not the point. The point is the fiscal currency you've built up with the issuers is an amount no other member on DDF can even close to touching. Period.
At any rate I've never used a contact to get a card approved or get out of a "blacklist."
Also nearly irrelevant to my point. In fact it may tend to prove it.
You've never been blacklisted (don't know about F/R). That could be because you don't do anything to trigger an F/R or AA, or it could be because your the "CEO of DansDeals.com", or it could be a function of both. We don't know.
And you not using a contact to get out of a blacklist is immaterial because you haven't BEEN AA'd.
Suffice it to say, Dan ≠ rest of DDF when it comes to this issue.
