***Edited to add, I made this post in the general "Fee to increase to $695" thread. It was moved here on 7/8.**

If it was mentioned, I didn't see it. I just discovered that you must ENROLL to get the $240 entertainment credit. Not much else requires enrollment, so beware. I signed up for Peacock last week and hope I get this month's $9.99 credit retroactively. (I don't see anything specifically excluding it, and I do have another 2 full weeks on my billing cycle. Hope it catches up).

That being said, I was a hero. My 5 and 7 year olds got to watch the new Boss Baby movie the day it came out and I think one of them has watched it 5 times since. ...I will get a lot of value out of this subscription.

And regarding CLEAR, United 1K here, so free for me, but will add my wife ($50) and my aforementioned daughters. And I do love it. But I don't think anyone else should get it...I currently like the CLEAR lines around the country--It easily saves me 15-20 mins at EWR versus the PreCheck only line.

That being said--looking at the CLEAR iPhone app, there's a tab under the "How Clear Works". Scroll all the way to the right to find "Pay with Clear"--seems to be an ApplePay-like service. Has anyone tried linking their Amex to the "Pay with Clear" program to see if we can eat up our $179 credit that way??!?!?!?!?
