it says there is a fee if u close it before 3 months

the reason someone would close it, is if they dont have $2500 lying around

Sure, 4% for up to $10K with tons of hoops to jump through to open it and maintain that rate.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

But after the 3 months can u close it, and open it again a month later?

Knowing Dan, he's probably got a workaround for that too ;)

True, Dan still has that signature under his name, so it should still work.

It clearly states that it will be counted as a cash advance.

Anyone try to fund this with a Capital One CC? (I know we're discussed that it'll post as a CA)

It took me a little more than a week, I called them and they said they were very backlogged.

I noticed teh requirements for the bonus points got stricter...like crazy spending and bill pays for long amounts of months, so i never opened the account....Was it always that way or they changed it when they started dropping big amounts of miles?
