The only place on FT would be Coupon Connection, which requires you to have amassed 180 substantive posts to gain access.

And have been a member for 180 days. Which s/he has, but for the sake of clarity for other new members.

I must be lucky - I applied for the TD Aeroplan infinite card on Sunday, was approved instantly, and yesterday received an email from GCR that the cash back went through. The application was buggy though, some of the popups that you have to open and accept took a few tries to work.

I always apply by phone. I find it saferr. Currently have 2 TD cards. Has any ever tried and been successful for 3?

So it's back to a 'functional' buggy state that it was at, earlier this year. Time to try again.

Good enough for me!

I gave it a go and did not have any obvious problems with the legendary, beloved TD application process. Got the AE number in there and everything. However, my application is "under review" with a response I promised in the next couple of days. (I think I got this same answer during my previous attempts which ultimately proved successful)

Just one question though, when prompted for your TD customer info, is it better to include your TD Easyweb login info, or apply as a "new customer" even if you already have a TD AVI?

Can anybody point me to Coupon Connection - the first I've heard of this place?

Thanks.

Not sure what's unsafe about applying online but you're leaving money on the table (currently $60) by not even trying to go through GCR.

Are you saying you currently have 2 TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite cards, or just 2 different cards in the TD family?

Sigh... reee-jected for TD AVI #3 to go along with my current pair + cashback MC.

Oh well, it was worth a shot.

With the TD Aeroplan card, how strict are they about income? My partner is a student. TD gave him the TD First Class card, when he opened an account with them, despite low income. Would that mean that he'd qualify for the TD Aeroplan, or did he just get lucky?

Probably lucky

and I wouldn't try any VISA INFINITE or MC World Elite if your income is nowhere near 60K. 50-55K, maybe okay, buff it up a bit with "additional unknown income"

Why do you say this Jerry? I was approved for the TD Visa Infinite despite fitting the criteria you mentioned... would they retroactively ask for proof of income?

Try to book a middle seat and hope that no one is next to you so you can sleep on the only double bed in the sky. Pre-order your Lobster Thermidor, and enjoy one of the most cool, fun experiences of your life! My 2 cents...
SQ is not the only airline with a double bed in the sky.
Etihad has a double bed. You'll have to fly The Residence on their A380.
