Has anyone received their September 1 miles for August statements yet? I'm assuming there's a delay due to weekend/holiday, but this is the first time I should have received miles, so I'm unsure what to expect for timing

Thanks for the heads up! I just checked, mine posted 9/10. I got the miles for the spend, plus the 40k bonus. I hit the $1k spend requirement for the additional 20k miles this month, and my September statement should close this week, so I'm assuming I'll get those miles around 10/10

How soon the new account shows up in the credit report? Does AU card show in credit report too?

Just try to minimize the number of new accounts.

The application for this card has been really a bear. I can't pass the first stage of verification. Some say the system can't verify the phone number. But I used 3 phone numbers (legit and large carriers like AT&T) and still no go.

anyone did a BT with this avianca vuela card? I did not see any option with the online account. It looks like I may have to call to request BT.

Avianca Vuela - do I need to spend only $1?

Hi,

I got my second Avianca Vuela last week. I am not sure how to find how much I need to spend to get the signup bonus - it seems to be $1 everywhere now?

Thanks if you could help me confirm!

Annual Fee?

I called to inquire about the AF on Avianca Vuela card. The rep said she does not see there is AF on this card. So she can't even waive it if she can do that.

Anyone has similar experience? I may want to keep it if there is no AF.

No one knows since this card has been in the dark. Not many people favor it. Give it a try and report back.

Actually this card still have a lot of value, particularly if you fly to Central America. The covid lockdown hurts this card for sure.
