Misc Credit Card Questions

Big difference between "less is more" and not doing something ever, which seemed to be your advice just a few minutes ago.

His point was to be careful, not to never do it.

That's not at all how his reply to you read.

In fact, he said it was a bad idea even when a part of the charge was made to the same card.

[jsk173]

What I said is many FI's will not like it and shut you down.

I made that point before you did, so it's unclear what you're arguing.

[jsk173]

I am not arguing anything. You are just interpreting what I said wrong.

How so? Unless you know for a fact that this guy has already done this previously on the same card(s), he'd be operating within your "less is more" principle.
 
Comment: "What if part of the purchase was charged to the card?"
JTZ: "Does not matter."

I don't see how I'm misinterpreting anything.

[jsk173]

Because your view is different from this one. 

That wasn't at all your point, as I just showed one comment above.

If it's a bad idea for this guy to do this once, when part of the charge was made to the card he planned to use, then it's unclear how it could be a good idea when none of the purchase was made to a card.

[jsk173]

All you want to do is argue so have a nice day. 

Not at all. Why not spell out your point? I've asked you twice to clarify the exchange I quoted above.

Again, if it's a bad idea for this guy to do this once, when part of the charge was made to the card he planned to use (i.e., when he has a semi-plausible excuse), then it's unclear how it could be a good idea when none of the purchase was made to a card.

a friend of mine told me that he got his amex travel credit by buying a ticket on two cards and he requested the full refund on one card and it worked!

I was reviewing my credit report for my 5/24 status, and i don't see my Platinum card that I opened like a month ago. Are charge cards not reported? They don't count towards 5/24?

They're basically going to ask you if you cash checks or process money, and then wish you a good day. 90 second phone call.
