does total annual income on the app mean her personal income or household income?

Lets me submit, with name.

It is possible to submit the offer by editing the url, and showing your correct name, without using the transactions of other customers as previously posted.

1) search for any flight, click through after selecting a flight.

2) check the box underneath in the credit card offer box, even if it is 30k. click next.

3) when the frame pops up, either right click to open in new tab, or right click to view source, then remove view-source: from address bar. don't hit enter yet.

4) edit the url as follows:

* change /U7-1000-xx to /U7-1000-46
* change offerType=defaultOffer to offerType=leadOffer
* add the following:

&pmcVendorCode=U7&additionalOffer=false&firstName= John&lastName=Smith&membershipNumber=222222222

edit that for your first/last name and skymiles number.

5) fill out the horribly coded form with just middle initial / name on card, etc.

6) on the next page it will show your first/last name properly and let you submit.

7) submit and see what happens.

I can see the form incl. 'First Name' but when I click on it it changes to 'Middle Initial' and only allows one letter to be inputted. What am I doing wrong?

I can't see the credit card offer no matter what, even the 30k one. Any ideas? I'm logged in.

EDIT: Got it to work by logging out and doing this not logged in.

Thanks

Thanks kalametty for the tutorial- I could see my name correctly on page2 - worked fine but got:

Thank you for applying! Your application will be processed as soon as possible, and we will notify you of the decision by mail within 14 days.

Just got an email:

We are pleased to approve your application for the Gold Delta SkyMiles® Credit Card from American Express. We hope you'll continue to enjoy the benefits and services that come with Cardmembership. Your Card will arrive in the mail in 7 to 10 business days.

Log out and then try. Seems like if you already have any type of Delta card, you would not see the offer if you are logged in.

Thanks, but everytime I tried to apply for the cc (even with the 30K offer), I got the following error:

"We're sorry, the system is down and we were unable to process your request at this time. "

Edit: Never mind, I followed the directions again and it worked this time. Got pending message... will see.

i hit submit and it's been "thinking" for about 5 minutes...wondering if its this terrible internet connection i'm on now. I tried checking the application status page and there is no record of an application. I guess try again when I get home?

so close but so far away

Wow this would be great! I can see the 70k offer but applied for the SPG Amex card recently!

90 days from when I applied for the SPG card would be the end of Nov. Hopefully this offer is still around!!! Has anyone applied for another personal card prior to 90 days and been approved? If I were to try it what's the downside? A credit pull? Will it reset the 90 day clock?

[QUOTE=amolkold;19312020]As someone else said, this is not close to BA 100K at all. BA 100K is possible to get many domestic awards out of because of BA's pricing and AA's availability. Delta 70K ... lucky to get 2 coach tickets.

Yeah, but you can book a US-Europe r/t ticket for 60k, pay only around $100 fees (as opposed to about $400 fees for B/A r/t), plus you get $100 statement credit and waived first annual fee. Pretty darn good.

If your goal is Europe, you should be focusing on UA/Chase UR, not DL. Especially if you're not in an international hub with partner service.

Worked like a charm, thanks - and great first post, welcome to FT!

As with another poster upthread, got the 14 day screen after submittal, but an email arrived shortly thereafter with an approval notification.

Booked award ticket SMF-BLQ on Delta for 60K miles this February! I've booked several times award tix through Delta for Europe. Especially nice when it's code share AirFrance over the pond. Delta rocks!

Already have Chase UA.
