Have others found the TSA precheck to be very useful? If only I have the precheck will they let the rest of my family come with me to the precheck line?

Every adult needs their own Precheck. Kids can go with adult companion.

Is the Global Entry credit good only once or can you get another $100 for each card each calendar year?

Have there been any issues reported with cancellation of AU cards soon after the credit posts? eg FR, clawbacks

Hi all,

I just received an offer in the mail for my wife, offering up to 150k points for Platinum Business card.  I assume this a good offer I should jump on? Excuse my naiveté.

Also, is there any way to collect all those points but avoid the $450 fee?

Thanks in advance!

It is a Great deal. You have time to cancel and get the AF refunded (i think 90 days) after the af posts. So  you gotta do the spend and get the points posted in that time frame.
