holy crap chase freedom bonus going to 10x earning starting 11/23

http://pointsmilesandmartinis.boardingarea.com/2015/11/chase-freedom-10-cash-back-promo-at-amazon/

and it resets the $1,500 spend cap on the 23rd. So I'm going to earn 22,500 UR points on Amazon purchase I was going to make anyway.

Quote from: 40k UR points for $3k in purchases

Theoretically if you applied for the Chase Freedom right now you could earn 15,000 points for the recently increased sign-up bonus (after spending $500 in 3 months), 2,500 points for adding an authorized user who makes a purchase, 7,500 points at 5x through November 22nd, and 15,000 points at 10x from November 23rd to the end of the year for a total of 40,000 points for just $3,000 in total spending! That is absolutely insane, in a good way. This made my points hungry morning much better for sure!

YES!

Well, that makes me sad. I applied for the card this morning at 8:44am and I got the idiotic pending approval email. So I called them right away and they needed to verify my phone number or something. So I was approved at about 9:05am.

you can probably call and get them to give you the larger bonus. people on flyertalk talk about doing that all the time.

kitten_mittons · « **Reply #8066 on:** November 17, 2015, 12:43:41 PM »

Well, I got the 50k, but I didn't have steve dave's referral link at the time, so steve dave will not profit.

i doubt sd has room in his war chest for a measly 5k referral points

I assumed he donated it to charity as a write-off.

also a nice silver lining with the BA short flight devaluation

Quote

The good news is that American will be introducing discounted award costs for travel on their own flights of less than 500 miles. A saver economy award will cost 7,500 AAdvantage miles, while a saver business/first class award will cost 15,000 AAdvantage miles.

so I'll be able to book to ORD for less I guess
