points can be used for the AF.

Statement credits: If you have the exact number of points or more required to wipe away a charge, you can wipe away the entire charge.  If you have fewer than the exact number of points, you can only redeem in 2500 point/$25 increments.

Example: If you have an $87 charge, and 9000 points, you can wipe away the entire $87 charge.  If, however, you only have 8000 points, you can only wipe away $75 worth of the $87 charge (2500 point/$25 increments x 3).

CSR claims you need SSN to add an AU. Is that true?

ETA: Went online to add AU and interestingly, it makes you choose the relationship of AU to AH. If you choose spouse, they ask for SSN, if you choose child or close family member they don't ask for SSN.

You can try, but Barclays has been a bit tough with MBM'ing. Any particular reason you want both and not two different cards?

How is Barclays with exceeding the credit limit on Arrival+? Does the system generally allow it?

I have already managed a  2 BM with them so that's not really my concern.
I'm just looking for a 2 BM as part of a bigger AOR and I already have m&m.
Anything else I can get instead?

I remember reading somewhere on DDF that in order to churn instead of cancelling the card it's better to downgrade. After few months should I cancel or reapply while still have the non-plus card?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

IME they won't give you the plus if you have a no fee card open.

Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Am I correctly remembering to 1st downgrade before cancelling? Should I wait a min. amount of time before cancelling the non-plus? or to reapply after I cancel?

I don't think there's a need to do the downgrade.
In my case when I applied I was told they can't approve since I had the no fee version and they consider it the same product. So I canceled the no fee card and reconed successfully the next morning.

What do you gain by downgrading, why shouldn't I just close it

As I recall for some reason you had better chances getting approved for a 2nd card if you first downgrade to the non-plus card.

You can redeem for odd amounts over $25 as well.

Redemption's start at 10,000 points. After that you can do it in increments of 2,500 or an odd amount if it covers the whole charge.

Starting at 2,500 if you have an old card.
