Is it one item? Does it have a Manufacturer warranty? I would do an MR earning Amex if you have use for MRs.

Amex Extended Warranty good for items up to $10k. Extends mfg warranty by one year.

Amex Pt Purchase protection good for purchases up to $10k.

Disco has 5% CB but only on the first $1500. Then its 1%. These are doubled if its your first year and you are enrolled in CB matching.

Amazon Prime store card is 5% CB as a statement credit.

Chase Amazon Visa is 3%.

There are several  2% cards available.

UR and MR points can be parlayed for greater than $0.02, often greater than $0.04. Plus if you are eligible to app for the Pt or Biz Pt with a 100-150-250k sign-up bonus, you can hit it in one shot.

I know there's pretty much no chance but I may as well ask, any way to get a referral bonus if the person forgot to use ur referral with chase?

Which card? I've gotten simply by calling and giving the info. Obv u gotta be a smooth talker, but if they have the ability to manually give u points, u just gotta ask for them

Related: Discover once gave me a referral bonus as a one-time courtesy when it didn't show up in the system, I don't remember if i received the auto bonus later (Although it would make sense that i did.).

CSP Probably no chance since I didn't even send it but I told somebody to apply for it & they only told me they were getting it after they applied…

Had the same thing with them and I'm almost sure I did get the regular referral bonus as well

Ouch ! That stinks . I had that a few times . Now, whenever a freind or family is thinking applying I always tell them to wait for my referral & I send it in the spot (saved in its own file in email).

My dad got the CSP and made me an AU on the card. What's the best way to transfer the points to my account without risking a red flag?

We don't fly a lot, so I was looking at leaving them in my UR account or moving to Hyatt.

New Question: I applied for the sapphire card under my wife's name and it was not immediately approved as it was when I applied myself about 3 months ago. Is there a reason to worry? Is it normal to be reviewed? Which is more common?
