Congrats on the Cash Magnet!! How much do you have to spend for the SUB?

It’s $200 for $1K so basically a 20% return plus they gave me the cell phone offer on approval that gives me 10% back until I earn $10 so basically $210 as long as my Xfinity Mobile bill triggers the credit.

It does make me a bit frustrated because why offer 0% for 15 months if you’re not going to give anyone a useful limit. Like when the site started asking me for BT info I was like “you’re kidding, right?”

 

That’s how AMEX wants to do business, I can work with it. They probably rightfully assume that they won’t get much spend from me.

Thank you sir!

 

Amex definitely doesn’t want me to forget that BCE I shut down before receiving. When I set up my online account, it shows that never used card on there and Member Since ‘18 lol.

Congrats on the CM approval.  I received the same SL.  Those lower SL's make it harder to coast to that SUB.  It's like they want us to get a workout or something. 


Thanks!

 

Yeah it’s a bit annoying that they gave me such a low limit but I can work around it. I’ll just move my utilities and groceries to the card. I’ll have it organically spent in 2 1/2 months. 

The thing that’s obnoxious is that they want to see use but then they give me such a low limit. They hit me with a $1K limit last March too and I turned around and canceled it when Disco gave me a $7500 approval minutes later. I won’t cancel it this time but I don’t know how much they expect to gain from my spending habits with a limit I can’t do anything with. 


You can make a payment online 5 times a day once you pass your first 30 days. Until then you can call in a payment beyond your first. I move about $3k through my $1k card every month.

They'll make you an offer you can't refuse and if you ever do them wrong, you'll swim with the fishes.
