i want to use this to pay the $525 annual fee i was just approved on the explorer card
Redeem your United miles at a value of 1.5 cents per mile to pay your United card’s annual membership fee.

it comes up as Explorer card last 4 digits 0000 ( different then my card’s last 4 digits )
do you think it would be an issue or if it says ” Explorer card” it will go to the same card..?

Eli

Looks like they added pay yourself back to freedom unlimited with 25 percent bonus… For those who don’t have a annual fee sapphire cards

Eli

Just looked over the list… I think I’ll wait for the list of yeshivas

John

Off topic question I have a CSP but I don’t want to pay a annual fee to Wich card should I downgrade it ? I already have a freedom unlimited downgraded from the reserved

“Chase cards:
Check if you’re targeted for bonus points on bill payments, groceries, gas, and dining here. You can also enter your card info to see if you have other targeted offers.”
I think these all expired on 9/30. Were they extended for some people?

clueless

do I need to activate the statement credits for usps and verizon?

Ed Travel

A few weeks ago you mentioned about something about buying credits or something on United and that would count for the airline fee can you add that?

S

Why did this article this come up as notification, but I can’t find it on the homepage?

Question though – Lyft Pink membership stays even if cancel card? What about all the others?

Zal

The 3 points on CSR for groceries started already? Or just from 11/1?

Simplicity

Does the Amex plat person co branded cards have these freebies as well?

DSK

Wow Dan–thank you! Tried the Chase link you provided and found November and December bonuses on United, Marriott, Ritz and Hyatt credit cards, some of which were quite good! Also received a MR bonus on Amazon. No idea, and glad I checked!
