50,000 Ghost- Miles Plus Miles
Now for the skeptical Conspiracy Theory! In fact no one has "received" any miles. You have received the verbal promise of an offshore SCR who is being compensated by the number of applicants they can sign-up. With no written offer or offer code there will be no recourse if you take the card and receive the standard Miles Plus offer of 30,000 miles.
Questions:
1. Will the immediate "on the phone" application process result in a hard credit score hit? Almost certainly yes!
2. Are you being given an applicable offer code?
3. Are you receiving a confirmation email with the terms of the offer?
4. Does any other recourse apply if the SCR made an "honest" mistake or there was a miscommunication do to heavily accented or incompetent English skills?
