I remembered Dan mentioning that You can lookup the merchant code on Visa’s site but I it's not showing WAWA in Howell...? Also is there a similar site for Amex?
You can use this lookup tool https://awardwallet.com/m/merchants

UR (that is marketed as cash back.)

I keep on getting the no signup bonus when I try applying for any Amex cards. Even cards I have never had. What does that mean?
(I used to have Amex cards but I shut them down myself after they requested tax returns. This was a few years ago.)
TIA

Anyone having issues with Chase applications disappearing? They pull your credit and then claim they don't have a record of your application.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Specific to people with shut down cards / accounts perhaps?

Maybe they're catching on.

Question about AMEX Business Platinum card— if I apply now and am approved, am I able to call right away and have them express ship it within a couple days? I want to use it to pay taxes before 5/17.

After amex upgrade, you need to wait a year to downgrade, is the same date the next year considered a year, or the day after?

Wait for the annual fee to post.

For months I was able to spend double my official limit on my Amex Platinum and "check spending power" correlated with the amount I was able to spend. Recently the credit limit is the exact amount I'm able to spend. What happened?
(My monthly due date also changed about the same time I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the limit)

Why do you have a limit? As a result of a FR?
