Another Barclay targeted offer

Q1 2014 I received a targeted offer from Barclays for an additional 2X points in several categories on my Priceline card.

Q2 2014 I received a targeted offer from Barclays for an additional 2X points in several categories on my Sallie Mae platinum card.

Q3 2014 I received a targeted offer from Barclays for an additional 2X points in several categories on my Sallie Mae platinum card.

Q4 2014 I received a targeted offer from Barclays for an additional 2X points in several categories on my Sallie Mae platinum card.

Q4 2014 I received a SECOND targeted offer for $20 off my Amazon Prime subscription on my Sallie Mae platinum card.

 

Q1 2015 no targeted offers.

 

Q2 2015 I received a targeted offer from Barclays for an additional 2X points in several categories on my Sallie Mae platinum card. This one is for an extra 2X (added to the regular 1X) for Travel, Dining, and Home Improvement Store purchases. Capped at an additional 2,500 points.

 

The bonus categories aren't that great for me this time, but hey, thanks Barclays!

 

By the way, They reduced my APR on that card by 4 percent last week.

Re: Another Barclay targeted offer

That’s a lot of love, man!  Enjoy the ride.  I only have one Barclay card – the US Airways card, and it’s fairly new.  I’d be happy to see some love thrown my way too!  Is this common?

I discussed about future apr decreases. They do consider it. Treat them well, they treat you well back.

Re: Another Barclay targeted offer

They send the offer couple of weeks before the beginning of the quarter and you need to activate it, similar to the 5% cards but targeted. I got only once, dining and movies Q1 2015. Between this, CSP, and Cash+ my dining was nicely covered.

TMWC, how long does it take for the additional rewards to post?

Oh and I joined the 4% bandwagon (and SP CLI) last week as well!

I've yet to get a targeted offer other than APR Reduction and 5K pts with 1K spend.

How do they let you know? e-mail? Or on your account when you login? Just curious. Smiley Happy

Wow!  So it seems like these sweet targeted offers are more likely with the Sallie Mae Platinum version rather than the Sallie Mae World.  I would gladly trade my "World" status/features (whatever those are) for some of these "Platinum" perks.Smiley Surprised

 

I never get anything from Barclays excpet BT offers.
