Loving Amex Delta Gold!!

youngandcreditwrthy — Wed, 03 Jul 2013 03:31:34 GMT

This is a very great card! I'm racking up points, almost already at that $500 spend after less than a month haha!
I got an offer today for an extra 1,500 points for spending $40 at partnered restaurants- which is completely doable since I barely cook any more lol!
All in all- I'm loving it. It's currently at $5,500; i might ask for $10k at 61 days! Lol

you crazy with these non full 3x CLI on Amex!!

I really think FR from CLI is way less than something else odd or off... mad spending based on reported income or big carrying balances.... but normal CLI... nah...

This card does credit you with miles fast! I hate the PRG's slowness in giving you the points you earn; I've had to wait for 2 full billing cycles to see my MR points.

Why not ask for the whole $15k?

Yeah... My BCE takes like two statements to get me my cashback! I've actually been using this card instead of the BCE, just to hit that $500 spend-then my normal spending patterns will resume based on which card offers me more cash.
I do mean miles!
Well, the reason I wouldn't request the whole 3xcli is that I alreadt have a $24,500 Amex BCE, which puts me at $30k exposed w Amex. I'm in a weird credit stage where I feel like I need to cut back some of my old accounts and grow some of my new, much more prime ones.
It does seem like that FR thing is a bit over mentioned lol
Well, I guess if I asked for $16.5k in a month or so(had it since June 3) and get approved, I can get rid of one of my GE cards that had a similar limit! Lol

Credit is a neverending game! Dayum!

when did you get the increase to 24.5k on the BCE? you will have to wait 6 months from then before you can increase the Delta Card?

I hope you got a good sign up bonus, I got the 35k bonus with 10k MQMs with my platinum card and now they're offering 55k with 20k MQMs. I wish I would have waited.

I just got the normal $500 spend gets 30k miles.
I had an offer for 45k miles on creditcards.com, but required too much spend.
Ryan! Where have you been playa!!!!!
Lol
Got my 3xcli on BCE on June 2nd I think.
So I can't get the 61 day cli on my Delta Gold?!

No, 6 months from last incrase from now on.

Nope, you can only have one CLI every 6 months from AMEX (only one, not one per card).

Between wedding, a bunch of travel for work and lake season I have been swamped. (have racked up a ton of UR and MR points though)

I'll try to get back on here more often then I have been though.

ugh. I envy you, I've applied 2 days ago and instantly denied. Delta Amex / Amex Green are the last two cards I want on my list, I'm glad that you're enjoying yours!
