Thanks. That actually gave me the idea to invoice myself through PayPal, pay it with the slate (that I also opened up not realizing I couldn't transfer) and get myself another 15 months. There's the 2.9% PayPal fee, but it's my best option at this point.

You can be shut down for that. Maybe sending it to yourself from one account to the other as 'Friends and family' is a better idea.

It was 2 different PayPal accounts. One business and one personal.

Same billing address?

Dunno about PayPal, but with regular CC processors this is an almost certain shutdown.

Different billing address. Different tax ID.

Which banks allow high funding? citi is dead
Some cards e.g. Barclays allow you to make a balance transfer directly to a bank account,

Venmo, paypal, squarecash, or any similar P2P payment service. They all charge around 3%.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

If u do return protection they will not claw it back as that is not a purchase. Same thing if you meet spending by using an amex offer and then get credited back.

Anyone had a Amex application not show up on the Amex Application Status page but received an email with a reference number for their application?

I called and they said 24-72 hours to process due to technical issues.

Pretty positive. What happens if I entered it wrong? Should I apply again with correct SSN?
