Got my 15000 for direct deposit which is weird because I hadn't direct deposited money outside of the transfer I did from one bank account during the opening.
Still waiting on the remaining 15000. Anyone else get the direct deposit skypesos before the other 15000 for using the card?
Thanks!

Purchase Miles Posting Wacky
Has anyone had issues with the amount of miles posting from purchases etc? I know that both PIN based and signature (credit) transactions all count at 1 mile /$1 spent and I've only seen a few hundred miles post on about $2500+ in purchases the last few months. Their math seems way off as well.
is this a Delta phone call to Skymiles or call Suntrust bank?

The account closure fee is $25 if the account is closed within 6 months of opening. This can be found on page 4 (left column) of the Fee Schedule on SunTrust's website.

I DID receive my 5000 and 10000 bonus points before the DD bonus, so I've got all 30k already.

I am doing a weekly ACH transfer from my biz chase account to Suntrust for $125. I guess that qualifies as a direct deposit.
