Given the cards lost their 10k benefits, I would like to close them and apply for the 60k promo. Wonder how many days after closing can I successfully apply for a new Aviator? I don’t mind keeping the card but learned that will risk app rejection so thinking of closing first, wait and apply for the 60k promo.
Any thought or comment? Thanks for any tips and help and good luck churning!
Are you really sure you are not getting them? Barclays CSR usually give conflicting misinformation regarding bonuses. I’ve been told I have no bonus offers on cards when indeed I did and they did post. My sister was told she never registered for the $2500/6 month spend for 30,000 miles by numerous reps and her points finally posted.
I have 2 anniversary cards also. One of them was recently changed to a Mastercard elite ( or something like that) by Barclays (not my choice). I was afraid that would affect my anniversary points. Not so as they are still showing on my account as a benefit. I am not closing those cards.
The third one I’m waiting till annual fee posts. Unfortunately that’s the one that gets the most bonus promos so I get suckered in to keep it.
FYI. The anniversary points sometimes disappear and then suddenly reappear as a benefit on account. They weren’t showing last week and I just checked and lo and behold they are back again.
I know when the cards converted they sent out a letter saying we would continue to receive our anniversary points. I’ve never received another letter stating otherwise.
My next anniversary is November so I’ll have to wait to see if anything has changed.
