US Airways MasterCard Now Offering 50,000 Miles

[Welder]

Anyone successful at getting AF waived?

Not really. You can cancel the card after the miles post and get a refund.

[robbie]

so what are the options for those that have the card open right now??

[chucksterace]

If I closed the card about 2 months ago I would still get the bonus if approved?

Sorry, I am just too lazy to read anything this early

-1 I've gotten it waived. Same rules apply as for the LH card. Just call up and ask.

Many reports of churning with just a few days of being closed.

Ive never had 2 cards get approved at once from Barclays.. If someone knows a way please PM me as well. TIA

I did it a couple of weeks ago, applied for app #1 approved it by shifting credit then I applied for app #2 and was approved by shifting credit as well.

Another n00b question,  how are the benefits better then the citi AA card

Good for you! When I tried they said it's impossible and that's pretty much what I've been hearing.

Nice... So the benefits themselves are close,  just the card /churn is time sensitive

Just thought of one downside.... Citi AA card gives free bag for each companion, but this one does not

This one gives up to 4 companions

i recently had succes with a 2bm from barclay. would like too try the same for my wife.
any chances of being approved for 2 usairaways cards? what would i tell recon as a good reason for wanting 2 of the same product? (currently the only barclay card she has is a miles and more)

[E-MAN]

What's the deal with the companion certificate?
Do you keep it if you close the card?
Will it also be transferred to AA?

Just called them to either match me for the 50k offer or waive the AF.
After being transferred to a relationship manager she offered me additional 5k miles after spending $1k/3 months, took the offer.
But I'm still cautiously optimistic on getting both the AF waived +10k matched.

When churning this card, can I use the same usair mileage account number? Or better to sign up for new usair account?

She couldn't match the new offer?
