The 2nd card ( actually the one I applied for first) only has the 50K mile bonus as I didn't add a user ( I will do that later) and this offer didn't have the $50 statement credit. Upon discovering the better offer is the reason I applied for the 2nd card about 15 minutes after my first application.


Thanks
