did you end up getting a retention offer?
they wouldn't give one to me so I closed my account earlier this year. I'm probably re-applying sometime next year if I can get the bonus again.
No, I just opened up another for the 40K bonus. You can actually app for another one and receive the bonus without having to close the initial one. Obviously, I'm closing them when the fees are due, then rinse & repeat until they decline me.
so you can have 2 arrival plus at the same time?
that's interesting. glad to know they are willing to give out the sign-up bonuses again.

Yes, you most assuredly can, and will receive another 40K bonus. I have a couple of friends who also have 2 of them simultaneously. Initially, I didn't think it was possible, until my friend pulled it off.
It was an auto approval, and didn't even require a recon.

Speculation on my part, but prudence with Barclays dicates an app with them once every 90 or 180 days. 6 months is more conservative, but I've also been successful at 90 days. When using that time frame, I've been approved for 2 Arrival+s and 3 US Airways cards.

yeah, this didn't work for me
I got in the mail "that I have the maximum of this product" lol
only 1 Arrival+ for me!
Barclays seems pretty conservative, but over the past year since I got my Arrival I've gotten two CLIs.'
8/15 Requested CLI $6,000
2/15 Auto CLI $4,500
8/14 SL $3,000

I heard Barclays almost never gives retention offers (its not like amex).
