This is helpful i will hold on do my ba card for dear life because i use those points for short hauls often  im looking for something else to apply for beCause I need the freedom and I am looking to double it with something. I have BA sp united hyatt sw. I would do ink bold but most people said that it pulls as 2. So I'm left with no other resort but to cancel and churn. I've just recently churned the sapphire.

Does united or sw churn?

Both are churnable. Especially United is a great one. You should probably take these questions to a different thread though.

You can transfer UR and MR points to BA,  so you do have many other options. . .

which offer? There are 2 discussed in this thread. I believe the only one that may still work is if you try booking a ticket on BA.com and they ask you to open a cc.

A friend of mine sent me this. Not sure if it was mentioned on this forum or not. It's good for 50k after your first charge and another 50k after one year.

Apparently this only works with chrome.

1. open an incognito window on google chrome.
2. go to the BA site and search for a one-way flight from chicago to london on an upcoming saturday (i chose june 23). it should price out to around $1400.
3. hit continue a bunch until you get to passenger details.
4. enter your details on this page. you MUST select YES that you are the name on the card that will be paying.
5. you should come to a screen that says “earn 100,000 avois” which gives you the option to apply for the card. if you instead came to the payment screen, CLOSE the incognito window, open a new one and repeat.
6. choose “Yes, I’d like to pay for this flight using my new card.” you will NOT actually have to pay for the flight. click on apply now.
7. it will show the details of your flight along with a big price. hit “continue to credit card application.”
8. after you complete the application, you will be taken to a screen (hopefully telling you that you were approved) which will confirm that you have not yet bought the flight. it will redirect you to the payments page. just close the window, and you’re safe.

They don't. I did it in regular chrome. But I suppose they could cache if you've ever booked a ticket before and first time customers may receive this targeted offer more often according to however their algorithm is programmed.

So?

I'm not sure about this one specifically, but many times if you've opened an application once a cookie is saved and you won't be able to load the better offers.

Edit: That's my understanding of it but I may be wrong.
