Barclays is notoriously bad for the amount of time you need to wait to receive bonus points. If you don't need the points, you can play the waiting game. In my experience points will eventually post (sometimes after third statement). If they don't, it can be a nightmare to call them, sometimes multiple times, to rectify the issue.

It looks like the one in the wiki, and all the ones in the last few pages of the thread are dead. It figures that I would wait just a little too long!

Seconding this request. I haven't been able to find anything, but maybe somebody got something new in the past month?

Went to the sign-in page on Barclays to check our Wyndham CC balance this morning. The ad on that page was for the Wyndham card that we have except that the bonus for the first spend was for 30K points instead of the normal 15K. The $1000 spend bonus was still 15K, but that makes the total 45K vs. the norm 30K. Of course, I can't find that page now to post the link for the better offer here.

For anyone else who may have recently picked up this card like we did under the normal 30K point bonus: I sent a secure message to Barclays asking if it was possible to be matched to the new offer. They said yes.

When did you apply for the 30K card ? I applied ~ 2 1/2 weeks ago ( June 9) for the 30K card and sent an SM and called in and was denied the 45K offer both times.

Just an FYI the new offer requires a $2k spend.

How did you word your SM and what category did you choose , I chose rewards so I wonder if the department it gets routed to was not the issue as I have had Barclay match bonuses before? Thanks

Huh. I applied for my card on 6/6. I sent it to the benefits category.

The new, limited-time offer allows for 30,000 points after first purchase - a good deal (especially for those who cannot meet the $2,000 minimum spend required for the full 45,000-point offer).
See wiki for details and link.

Thanks for fleshing out all the details.

Does anyone know if a person can get both versions of the Wyndham card? I recently got the no annual fee version of the card when I signed up for the Choice card last month.

Based on my research in the Wyndham forum, it sounds like they are two different products.

I have asked this question before but never received an answer.

If you apply the worse they can do is say no.

Keep us updated if you do apply

I had the annual-fee version. I later on applied to get the non-annual-fee version; they did not approve the application.

They did not tell me, however, that one could not have both versions at the same time; they gave as a reason for the denial something like "we cannot approve you for another card at this time".

Any data points on if I can have the older 15K annual bonus version and the newer version of the card that gives Plat status simultaneously? I received a new version of the older card in the mail that had the white background design of the no annual fee card, rather than the blue background design of the annual fee card. So does that mean they are two separate products? Or would I need to close the 15K annual bonus version first?

The 45,000 point offer is back. Updating the wiki.

Any idea what this is?1/5/18 WYNDHAM REWARD CREDIT $(50.00) posted to my account.

Just applied 12/7 for the card w/ 45K point offer. The $75 annual fee also posted to my account on 12/31. I've spent ~1K to date, none of it at a Wyndham property.

I checked the application info and didn't see anything about a $50 credit bonus. My partner received the same.

Also, I read that Platinum members receive 3K bonus points each calendar year. Does anyone know when that will post?
