[Talmid Muvhak]

Which amex gives extra CB for gas but not for groceries?

blue cash after $6000 of groceries

[Achas Veachas]

blue after $6000 of groceries

You probably mean the preferred and I don't think that's what etech0 meant...

[Buruch]

vons/pavillions counts, right?

[yitzf]

So will the balances combine?

No, you'll have 2 separate rewards accounts.

Can we have this thread renamed?
Shouldn't the thread for discussing Amex BC (Legacy) have a better name?
Each time this thread gets bumped I get scared for a second...

How about this for a name?

Bigger than any glitch find.

[Marco Polo]

How about this for a name?

Or "How I Will Pay For A House and A Car"...

Good call! Good call!

Or "How I Will Pay For A House and A Car"...

Great idea!

[lunatic]

Or "why I love the grocery store"

I don't think Dan will be apologizing anytime soon. Some people prefer vacations over houses.

Well when you vacation it's like you get a different house every few months

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Some people prefer vacations over houses.

...but you can have both.

So true. I think I'm going to move to Poland.

Need to test each one.

+1 but more importantly you only earn 2% (with bc), 3% (with bcp), or 5% (with old bc) on gasoline from gas stations. Being categorized as a gas station is required, but not enough.

[Redbull3]

And, yeah, totally on board with renaming this thread.

Nitpickers aside, some of you may be interested to know that there are some reports of BC card cancellations with no prior warning. Your AMEX accounts can still be open and you keep all the rest of your cards; it's not an FR.

Eta: if there's a way to expedite reward dollars, it makes sense to play it safe and cash out ASAP.
