If I had a sapphire preferred then did a product change to regular Sapphire and it's been two years since I received the original sign up bonus. Can I do another product change to let's say the freedom card, and then sign up again to the sapphire preferred to get the bonus?

Which credit card would be best to buy a washing machine and dryer. Chase freedom, sapphire (regular not preferred), ink business preferred, amex everyday, or blue business plus?

Not looking for points primarily. I'm looking for extended warranty and return protection or any other coverage that would be useful.

Do they even cover big appliances? Would I have to ship it down to the credit card company if let's say it broke? Which CC company is the easiest to deal with by big appliances?

I believe not, at most you'll get it to post in 2 or so days with a post day if today.

Hey so I'm new to the cc game. Do I need to wait for a statement in order to pay my balance and receive the points? Or can I pay it as soon as I see the charge on my account? This is in regards to meeting a threshold for Chase Ink Business Preferred.
I see the charge but no points earned.

let me add that I received and activated the card about two weeks ago and have since made two charges on it.

Congrats on your approval.
You can pay when you want, but the points won't post until your statement closes. Though I will add, Chase doesn't like when you churn your CL, so don't pay early then spend again before your statement closes.

Thanks! So basically, one payment per statement?

no. multiple payments are fine.

But if your credit limit is 10K, Chase doesnt like (allegedly) if you spend 10k, pay it off, and spend another 10k in the same billing cycle.

Is this a phishing scam?

Does Amex actually have a secure message system? I thought they ended that years ago.
