Which miles/points tend to post fastest?
I'm considering the listed cards and wondering which cards post quickest
after first purchase?
I did a search but didn't find similar info. If info exists, could you kindly direct me to it?
I missed the Continental 50,000, which bums me out. I wanted to ask for billing due date to be moved up to get miles faster. Question: Do other credit card companies allow the same?
I'm needing this for Seattle trip, hotel and car. I do have most of my air miles with United.
Amer Express Membership 50,000
American Airlines 75000 miles
Priority Club 60,000 points
Citi Thank You Premier 50,000 points
Hilton Honors Amer Express 20,000 maybe 30,000 more
Hilton Honors Visa 40,000

I can only speak for chase cards and Amex. Amex is slow. Chase is within a day or so of each billing cycle. When you call to activate ask when the statement drops. They can move it up. I have done this and had my bonuses (that I had met the spending on) post within 10 days or so of getting the cards because I had the statements close about 10 days from activation. You can probably even have them close a few days closer if you want. I just wanted to be sure the $$ I needed for each card posted prior. Good luck

Just applied for American Airlines Visa and Amex. Google showed that Citi can move up billing cycle when spend req is met. ^ Here's hoping Google doesn't let me down.
First, error message.
Second, need more time to process.
Hope I didn't waste my apps. Teen and I are both getting braces soon. I'd love to pay the down payment on these cards! Plus, dh has an outdoor project he is hoping to start next week or so.
If these don't work out, dh can apply for diff cards.
