    My two least favorite CC companies. I have a Discover card, which is my longest credit card history - but my hands are tied as they don't budge/increase my CLI so I am stuck with a stingy 4k Discover limit vs. my largest limit at 23.5k and all others at least 10k, I have a lot of cards and never can get preapproved for Capital One so I gave up after a few too many tries. I had Synchrony Walmart Mastercard which is now Capital One at $4500 and Capital One will not raise the limit on that either . So apparently my Discover card will now be firmly cemented in the low tier bucket thanks to the this Capital One acquisition.

    Also get MR points if you have an Amex bank checking account! Not a lot but it still gets you MR points Also there is the Charles Schwab investor card which gives you 1.5 cashback. Not the greatest either but I like those cashback going into my investor account. 😌

    They just closed 4 of my 6 accounts. I have never missed a payment and all of my cards had 0 balance as I paid my cards off monthly. Their excuse was I haven't paid down enough on my 30 yr mortgage. My mortgage is 4 yrs old and I have alway paid an extra $100 each month and have never been late. This company is ridiculous.

Heck I can handle a 1- 2% interest for the next month... In the back of my mind I was thinking there's no way people with credit card debt get charged 20% each month lol

    The thing keeping from going all in with Amex is the fact that their cash back and points cards do not work together, I currently have a BCE and it's great for gas and groceries and the fact of the low exchange rate from converting points to cash. Anything less than a 1/1 rate is ridiculous.

  • @SuperVeganShark
    @SuperVeganShark 4 дні тому

    Dillards has an Amex card as well but it’s a pretty crummy card unless you want to earn discounts shopping at Dillards. Macys has an Amex card, a bit better card. Bloomingdale’s has a card that pays out to store credits works out to 1.5x per dollar in rewards to value.

    • @UTubeVidWatcher
      @UTubeVidWatcher 4 дні тому

      Amex is a bank like Chase but Amex is also a payment network like Visa. The cards you listed are not Amex cards. Those cards use the Amex payment network but those cards are not from Amex, You don't apply for those cards on the Amex website and you don't pay the monthly bill to Amex. You pay the bank that those cards came from which is usually Synchrony and Comenity.

    • @ProudMoney
      @ProudMoney 4 дні тому

      Honestly I don't know that there is a consistent strategy to use. It is sort of comparison shopping between AmexTravel.com and Delta and the other transfer airlines. Some people talk a good game about using international airlines that are part of an airline alliance to find "secret" fares on domestic flights, and sometimes these weird pricing discrepancies are true, but the problem is they are rare and may not be to a destination you are looking for. I think it is less about "tricks" to locate the best deals and more about how much time you are willing to look for every possible option, knowing that in the end looking for that needle in the haystack could be a waste of time (and being OK with that). Every once in a while you'll find a great deal, but more often you won't, and some people have more patience and get more enjoyment out of the hunt than others.

    • @johnkim163
      @johnkim163 4 дні тому

      Thank you. Just the dose of reality I need to help me on my quest to find a reasonable return on my MR points. Not everyone has the time to find that needle in the haystack.
