im pretty new to the whole credit churning thing but some ideas that i had (like i said i am new so these ideas might not be new but i didnt c any one mention this idea yet )and if any one can answer me that would be great so first q. i need to spend 5,000 in 6 monthes on my amex card for the extra bonus but i live in Israel were i would have a fee for every transaction so my q. is if i buy a gift card using my amex (so i get the needed spend on my card)does those gift cards NOT have a foreign transaction fee?
second does a transfer of balance work for receiving credit? basically if i only spend 5,000 one time on one card then transfer the balance to a second card would i receive the credit twice?
