Why not also add the AMEX gold rewards and the AMEX business gold rewards cards to your list. You can get them to match targeted promos for 175K amex points.

Question for the experts out there. I was wondering if I can do a churn now..
Here is my history in this churn game. was approved in March: Amex Platinum Citi AA Amex CapOneVentureVisa Chase CO MC Barclays UsAir MC mid-May: rejected for Amex Premier Gold and rejected for Citi AA Biz Visa. So, it has been over six months. I was thinking of doing my second run of applications next week, say five or so. my credit scores are roughly 740 across the board with approx 11 enquiries which includes those above. Anybody have any advice/suggestions????? |
Just FWIW - that Chase United Explorer card 60k offer seems to have been at least postponed until November (think the current offer is 40k). Robyn

Any particular reason why you include the USAir? The bonus doesn't seem that lucrative and they can sometimes give you a lesser card with a lower bonus. Also the US card is very churnable. It's the new Citi AA churn of old. I also put the CO biz card in my last churn as it's disappearing soon and the Hyatt as it's spend terms are changing (old 1st purchase link still available two weeks ago). I may soon do the AirTran as it's disappearing. I'm waiting on the UA Explorer as it'll be around. After you've done many non-churnable cards it's important to grab disappearing ones. |

The US card from Barclays is actually the BEST deal now. You get 40K miles, fee waived, 5K discount on every award, priority boarding, lounge passes, and best of all Barclays only pulls from TransUnion, giving a break to the Experian pulls most of us have too many of.

Where is the first purchase link for the Hyatt card , versus the spend one ? The post that had an A Or B choice seems like the A link for no spend brings me to $ 1k spend for second night free. I applied and was approved in time , but want to apply for my wife and would prefer the no spend if still available. |

Not so sure that is an accurate statement. Seems like AMEX has stopped honoring match/bumps a few weeks ago so it's definitely YMMV if at all viable .

After logging in to the credit card company's website, there should be a secure email center where you send and receive messages to the company. Log in and look around for it. It should be easily visible from your account summary page. |

Hi, new to churning here but do credit pulls drop every quarter? Is that why it seems the OP is churning in 3 month intervals? I recently got denied for the old 75k citi card for toomany transunion pulls....wondering when those drop off
