What's the most valuable Chase card offer to apply for, after getting approved now for the CSP since it's going to be under the same pull?

The personal banking number is working. All the CC numbers I tried do not.
CSR worked a few minutes ago.

All numbers are back up already.
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.

Anyone know if the Amtrak card from BofA is able to be downgraded to a no AF card of any sort from BofA?
Still looking for a good MS method :)

You could get a card that has the annual fee waived the first year and then downgrade after the first year, e.g. United mileage plus card

ETA: although would probably be much better to keep the card and pay the annual fee using miles.

When adding “employee” cards for Amex, is it better to add a DOB or not?

The employee with a DOB gets a credit file.  Which might help him build credit.

Any issue if “employee“ is only 9?

In the old days, Amex backdated  all AUs to the date the card was opened.
A DDFer told us he was thanked by a rep for being a member for 28 years....when she realized that he'd just confirmed his birthdate that was 22 years ago.

Not on Amex business cards.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.
