Is it possible to get the bonus for both cards?
I was thinking about getting the Plus card, earning the bonus, canceling, signing up for the no fee card, earn the bonus on that, and then keeping the no fee card. If that's not allowed, then does Barclay's allow for downgrading? Say, if I get the plus card, earn the bonus, then downgrade to the no fee card?

Breakeven point?

Plus, the 10% rebate on redeemed points means that a 1.3¢ valuation is really more than 1.4¢ with the plus card; making the break even point more like $680 in B6 spend.
There are other factors which are more important. I value the free checked bag benefit at $15 per flight (it can be as high as $20-25 per flight depending on if you book Blue/Blue+ fare) so a single person RT with checked bags and the anniversary bonus easily covers the the annual fee.
But even without any of those things, the signup bonus by itself is well worth the annual fee the first year.

I'd completely forgotten about the 5000 anniversary points, so yeah your target is $35, not $99. Thanks!

I signed up for the JetBlue Plus credit card, made an award redemption a few days after receiving the card (I even paid the taxes on the Plus card) but it's been over 3 months and the 10% redemption points haven't posted. Do I need to contact JetBlue or Barclays?

When did you fly? It doesn't matter when you redeemed the points, it matters when the flight occurs. The 10% bonus points have posted about 1 day after flying in the past.

I was just going off the language in the T&C, which refers to the time of redemption and not the time of travel:
"TrueBlue redemption bonus points typically post 4-6 weeks after your redemption."

Not long it wasn't even end of billing cycle. It pretty much posted as soon as I hit $50k in actual spend. And I promptly used it to cancel the award booking and rebooked via AMEX business Platinum 30k MR points for Mint one way! Freaking awesome!

Hi all,
Does anyone have data points on how long it takes to be awarded the signup bonus? I signed up for the JetBlue Plus card 2 months ago and quickly met the $1,000 spend requirement for the 30,000 bonus points. It's been about 6 weeks now and I still have not been awarded my 30,000 bonus points. I've called in and all the call reps confirm that I've met the requirements, but that it can take "a while" to receive the points. Ordinarily with my Anex, Chase and Cit cards, I've always received my bonus by the next day, or maybe a week at most, so I felt his was unusual to be taking this long.
Has anyone else experienced this? I've called Barclaycard several times and all reps tell me the same message that "it can take a while." This is just annoying because I need to book some award tickets and am banking on these 30,000 points to enable that booking.
Thanks in advance for any feedback!

. On way home had them check again for mosaic still wasn't so paid with ritz card. Had some drinks and snack box on flight that I was going to use ritz travel benefit but they never asked for payment.

Does anyone know about this contest? http://jetbluebahamassweeps.mastercard.com/
I just found out about it through an Ad on instagram. They obviously know I have the card and targeted me. I checked my e-mail but was never informed about it before this ad
