Re: What'd ya get in the mail today?

Some LADWP bills, a letter from Discover shooting down my latest CLI request, and a shiny new American Express Gold Delta Skymiles card. Oh yeah, yesterday I received my Chase Sapphire Preferred card.

Re: What'd ya get in the mail today?

Catching up after some real life challenges.  After hitting the 700 club on all 3, I finally received my first pre-approval for a guaranteed amount,  but it was from first premiere, something that I know is mocked on here.  Regardless, those who have read my posts may have seen how badly I was wanting to start getting offers other than Credit One, so it felt great!!!   I have a feeling better offers will be catching up to my new scores soon!  Smiley Happy

 

Letters from Commenity that my accounts were suspended for investigation.  Im not sure what suspended means, but i think it came up showing my Sportsman's Guide Visa as closed on Myfico, with a 40 point increase!!  Total coincidence?  Maybe.  (Probably?) I may start a thread in the Fico Score forum about it, if I get around to it.  Ive had a lot going on and havent called them, but wonder if I can get a suspension overturned?  Is suspension a weasel word for banning me?  Usually I enjoy Commenity's straight talk when they say they are "unwilling" to give an increase rather than "unable" or some other wording. ;-)   Ive read some of the threads about their antics, but dont remember if I read anyone saying accounts "suspended for investigation".  If a mod wants to paste this elsewhere to not break up the continuity in here and maybe get more answers, I wont mind. :-)  Otherwise I may write one up myself in whatever forum is appropriate at some point, as I would appreciate feedback.  But that was my mail update, folks!  Ive missed you folks and am subscribed to this, so the email drew me back!   

 

That reminds me of the Blues Traveler song, "Hook", which mocks their fans, the industry, and uses one of the most famous hooks of all time from classical music centuries ago, if you have a good musical ear(I had to read about it).  In my opinion, an extremely deep song, and in his own words, an industry suicide note, saying they were done using the simple formula for writing hits.  I admire that.  Seeing this July 4th at Red Rocks(base of the Rockies, near Denver) is an amazing experience I encourage to those of you who are looking for more "spend" on your cards! lol  Also a great place and time for the song written by a fallen member of the band, The Mountains Win Again.  https://youtu.be/pdz5kCaCRFM   Blessings to you all.

 

Sadly, I typed most of this with one finger, but I had to, as the hook brought me back!  ;-)

A nice booklet from AMEX for their Gold or something like that.  Lots of papers and stuff.  I have the BCE, and don't need anymore cards.  But glad to be loved, remember when I couldn't get anything.

FINALLY got my Marriott card! I applied and was instantly approved on the 1st of January, so almost 2 weeks from approval to card in hand. I got my AMEX Platinum on Wednesday after approval on Monday. Both cards are so pretty! Haha! Now to get those spend bonuses met. ;-)

Received my PRG! Was expecting a bit earlier but finally it's here! Nice packaging.

Also got the replacement card for the BCE, downgraded from my 6 months of BCP experiment.
