Not sure if the Cap people are dumb or smart. Most of average-income CC holders (not business) do not spend that 50K in a year on a single travel credit card. Considering 3 credit hits, their offer would be useless for most people. Lucky that I did not wait for this offer. I got US 40K card + 70K Marriott in Feb + 1 night free certificate up to cat4 for only 2 credit hits. No spend requirement. My mom also got the other above 2 cards + Amex 75K (targeted).
3 credit hits in total. All she needs to spend is $1000 in 3 months. All the points/miles here do not count transfer bonus promotion.
Oh man, good luck to those who even have $50k spent on their single travel CC. Doing a simple logic here does not make single sense for applying that offer from Cap.
