Fidelity Rewards Bonus Offer

BigBS — Tue, 01 Nov 2016 00:52:15 GMT

Has anyone with a Fidelity card received a letter offering an 1 bonus point from tomorrow through 31 December? Received this about a week ago and just activated it today. Minimum spend of $800 before earning the additional 1 bonus point up to 2000 points if enrolled before 30 November. May not be much, but a 3% card for the rest of the year.

So a maximum of $20 extra after spending $2800? Worse than Citi's $25 offers!

I actually did receive this offer, but my offer only requires me to spend $50 instead of $800. Fidelity is definitely going to get more use this month and next than my other 2% card (Citi Double Cash).

You should call and see if you can get the minimum spend lowered to $50. Just let them know that you're aware that there is also a $50 minimum spend offer circulating.

In August I got a postcard that offered $100 on $2000 spend by October 31st, in addition to the normal 2%. My statement cut late last week and they credited me with the extra $100. I have not rec'd the offer OP mentioned, but I doubt I'm make any extra effort for it.

That's a very nice offer, pipeguy! I wish I would have received that one.

I may do that, thanks.

I had the AmEx version for about a year and if I remember correctly there was a $100 or $200 intro spend bonus with the card. My card was converted to the new Visa version and for some reason they offered the additional spend bonus - figured they might say "you already got a bonus" but they didn't and its not very hard to spend $2k in 90 days, which was probably closer to 75 days by the time I got the offer.

Note that this screen shot is only from the Fidelity Visa Version - seems the AmEx statements are no longer online and i didn't get paper copies.

That's very cool. I had the Amex version for almost 2 years before they converted to Visa. No offer like that came my way.

I got some kind of offer last month. Since I've been using it for the past two years, no need for me. I don't think I got any bonus when I opened this CC.
