I would think it makes a difference where you buy it from . If you buy it from an insurance company then it would probably list as "insurance" or something like that. If you buy from a travel agent/booking site then I assume it would show as travel.

I have a CSR statement closing tommorow, any ideas?


If i do the purchase now will it still work?

Will changing the payment due date force another statement?

Nothing to lose by pushing off the statement, because it needs time to post anyways

You can take this one to the bank. If you don't try your odds will be ZERO!!!



Approved today after a long 45 min call.... made the closing date for the 24th and overnighted the card all in one call!
After approval with recon I was transferred to member services to change the closing date and to rush ship the card.
