I'm looking at this as a quick ATM cash out play. Can that be done without registering? I'm thinking not and I'm betting that is why others are interested in this card too, for the ATM cash out. I've got a Citi Freedom card that's been sock drawered for years so I was thinking about $5k or $6k a month as a reason to pull it out and get some 5X TYP just to cover Amazon purchases or redeem for VGCs. Not interested in using this for anything other than that.

Anyone else have issues getting the signup to work? I've tried four times now and keep getting the same response a little while later:
I've called in several times and the most they can tell me is that they were unable to verify my information, but not specifically what part of it, or what they're checking it against. It's odd, since I have several Amex CCs and a Serve and have used matching addresses to those, but to no avail.
Any ideas?

I have the 5x Forward still, and even $400/mo would be 24K points a year with zero fees. Can this be done at any B&N? I have a few campuses near me, but may not be worth it if I have to drive all over creation.

My wife and I recently signed up and got approval e-mails. However, when we clicked the link in the approval e-mails for e-mail verification, it didn't work. Not sure what's going on. Seems like a perfect way to hit 30K on SPG Business Amex with the 5% cashback through OPEN

Thanks...reading comprehension 101 failure on my part. Still, $3.95 for a $400 load, netting 2K TY points, and a free ATM withdrawal doesn't seem too bad. 2K TY points with the 1.6x multiplier on AA/US is $32/mo or $384/yr, less $47.40 in fees. If I can load at a local B&N, that's a no brainer. X2 for my wife, too.
