2- X1 cards?

Metalcards — Tue, 12 Apr 2022 17:39:00 GMT

All, hope everyone is doing good.

I'm bored and thought I would ask this question. Can someone have 2 X1 cards?

I requested invitations from them a long time ago and must have used different emails. I received an invitation and was approved a week ago. I now received another invite to my other email address.

Wondering if anyone has been in this situation and outcome.

Curious as to what advantage having two would bring? The credit extended seems to be based upon income so there likely wouldn't be an advantage to splitting that up among multiple cards. You would miss out on the extra 1x for the first $15k of spend on the 2nd card. There is no cap on earnings. And there doesn't seem to be a SUB that I can see?

X1 has confirmed that's a negative. You can reach them by email/text if you want to get an answer straight from them, though.

So you don't think I should try, "for science sake"? smileyvery-happy:

If you are "bored with inactivity" as my professor use to say, then why not! 😂

They don't report. So, there's zero benefit to multiple cards, unless you're digging yourself a hole.

Quite a few approvals from Nov and Dec are now reporting. Won't be long before all others are too.

NO you can't have more than one and they will catch "your science" as soon as you enter your SSN and stop the process right there.

That is a good news! Makes X1 more traditional credit card!

There's a thread on the top of the X1 subreddit saying they've had the card since Nov and it hasn't reported yet. Every single response is that their card hasn't either.

This isn't to say it's not happening, but I haven't seen it personally or read anywhere that it has. Personally I'm ok with it not reporting, I'm not carrying a balance, but I don't need my AAoA dropping right now. (Obviously I do expect it to, but I'm more than ok with it taking it's sweet time)

Feeling like Apple is taking a page from X1's playbook lately. Update my REPORT Apple!! ...please?

@FinStar Okay. Sounds like a challenge to me. Let's experiment! I'll be back in a minute.
