Thanks UnkaB for putting a good word in for me with NFCU!😁

I've had one card and a small cloc with Navy for 2 and a half years. I haven't been successful in the last year and a half at a CLI on the CC or acquiring an additional CC.

After watching my UnkaB school them recently. I did a little research and figured I could at least churn and burn the sign up bonus paying my mortgage using Plastiq and Masterpass. I'll save $250x2.5% a transaction using Masterpass instead of using the card directly. Coupled with the 1% cash back. It will cost me $37.00 but I'll still pocket $263. 😉

I'll be consolidating several cards and getting rid of several later this year. This one will take one of their places. 

I contacted Navy and let them know UnkaB was my closest of Uncles and pulled the trigger.

Well we'll well...look what we have here. UnkaB you're the best! 😀

Exposure with Navy was $31k now $56k. I currently have a 0% BT on my other Navy CC.

Thanks 4TLoP!😀
Yeah I was trying to figure out how to collect the bonus with minimal cost and pay a bill that was already in the budget.
