Re: Direct Rewards

I'm not Peas, nor do I play her on tv. Smiley Happy

The only CLI I ever saw on that card was when I went to cancel it (as in seriously cancel it, not a ploy for CLI) and they offered a $500 CLI to $800.

I took it and then canceled several months later.

Thank goodness for that! 
 
On a side note, my DR Disc was on the chopping block for several months.  At the moment it is getting some use b/c it's only one of three rewards cards in my possession (lost wallet saga).  I'm wondering if I could use this logic -- call to cancel after I PIF and see what they'll give me.  The card will turn two years old in just under a month.
 
Hmmm -- you've given me something to think about.  (Well, gee, and I just realized my DR Disc has a higher limit than my Disc More card.  Will wonders never cease?)

When I went to cancel it the second time they didn't even transfer me, the front door CSR clicked his mouse and it was done. So, it might not work.

But I stress to anyone reading this thinking about trying for a CLI this way, I was completely serious the first time. They were also more than happy to close my account, and they WILL NOT reopen the account after it's closed.

Agreed.  I'm totally fine with giving this card its wings.  I just have to remember to redeem my rewards (ha!) first. 
 
*Mental note Peas, don't get carried away and call on a whim w/o redeeming your rewards!*
