Will this work:

Sign up for BA and Hyatt today.

Then next year instead of paying 95$ fee, I switch the credit line to the Hyatt card.

Will it work? Will I be able to keep the Avoios?

Excellent.

How many CCs should be applied for at the same time using the MB? Is 2 more likely to work then 3?

Whats the best hotel CC out there after SPG?

If I signed up (and got accepted) for Chase SW in June, and Chase Ink in September, what's the likelihood of getting accepted for this now?

There is so much more to getting approved for cards than just how many you have from that bank in the last few months.

Very true. Chase keeps on mentioning that I have many new accounts at other banks.

When did you open the card? Just curious when the fee normally hits, I have had the card for a couple of weeks. Tried to SM for fee waiver and failed but want it to hit before I SM again.

Found it myself on the landing page " 50,000 Bonus Avios
This new cardmember bonus offer is not available to either (i) current cardmembers of this consumer credit card, or (ii) previous cardmembers of this consumer credit card who received a new cardmember bonus for this consumer credit card within the last 24 months. To qualify and receive your bonus, you must make Purchases totaling $2,000 or more during the first 3 months from account opening"

So, bottom line, people, If I have not had the card or received the bonus in over 24 months, do I need a new ffn?

I have the card still from the 100k offer but had downgraded it to a fee free version(Don't want to cancel as it's one of my earlier cards and good for my score). Can I get the bonus again?
Dear .........llll

Thank you for contacting Chase about your interest in a
new British Airways credit card.

As long as you have not received an enrollment bonus for
the same British Airways product within a 24 month time
frame, you would qualify for a new enrollment bonus. We
can not guarantee your request will be approved or that
you will receive this offer with a new application as
credit card offers can vary and change at any time.

If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.

Thank you,

My 1st statement is closing on Nov. 3rd. The fee didn't show yet.

How many days before the statement closed did it show?

Probably going to have it cancelled anyway, in order to get some other cards approved.
I just want to know for the future.
