Bonus Points
 
Late last year there was a promotion that went along the lines of "spend a number of $ between now and the end of the year and get some bonus points." I seem to remember that my offer was to pend $750 for 2500 bonus points. Yesterday 2000 points posted to my account, I am pretty sure the offer was not for 2000 points, but I can't find the e-mail with the offer. Does anybody have a record of this offer?

Important! In 2017, FlexPoints have a higher average travel redemption value than Altitude Reserve points so it may not be in a customer’s best interest to switch to Altitude Reserve immediately.
Devaluation coming?

Mine was 2,000 points for $500 in spend, I believe. I spent the required amount, but the points never posted in the 6-8 weeks they were promised. Even after multiple phone calls asking for the points to post, they still never showed up. It shouldn't take this much effort to participate in a spend promotion.

Got discouraged, burned my remaining points, and canceled both of my FlexPerks cards.

Of course, the points finally posted AFTER I canceled the cards.

USB is way too much hassle these days...glad I canceled them and can move on.

So does US Bank grill customers on business apps like Chase?

I got a biz card about 4 months ago. I was NOT instantly approved. I did not call and just noted the card showed up in my account a few days later.

Were your ARS and Sagestream frozen when you applied for the biz card?

How do you see the price for the flight on their website? The only thing I see there is number of points needed.

Error When Registering for Gogo Passes
 
Has anyone else been unable to register their FlexPerks card for the 12 Gogo wifi passes? I'm using the correct Gogo/US Bank webpage but keep receiving the following error:

"We're sorry!
The card number entered is associated with a different bank.
Please double-check the web address in the initial program email or letter to ensure you're registering the correct card through the correct web address."

Has anyone else encountered this? I contacted US Bank but haven't heard back.

Is there any way to check app status online or auto phone? This is for spouse's first usbank card (KE vis), so no existing online account.

Do you do this at the airport? Last time I traveled on Flexpoints I bought a Delta GC online, the rep shot me down for the reimbursement.
