Last Call for No Fee Evolve Money Bill Payments

(Hat Tip to Doctor of Credit)

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend.  Last week, I wrote Poll: Is Evolve Money Dead? 3% Fee for Gift Card Payments Next Week.  But according to Doctor of Credit’s post, Evolve Money is allowing certain credit cards to be added as a debit card and used to pay bills.  I added a few credit cards to my account and here are my successes and failures.  Only my US Bank Club Carlson Business Credit Card worked, but apparently Barclays Arrival Plus is working as well.

Allett EcoThin Original Wallet (Hold Cash and up to 24 Credit Cards)

Updated – 2/14/2015 at 5PM PST: Added more versions of the Allett (leather, velcro, and women’s versions) to the bottom of the post.

Good evening everyone, let me tell you about a cool wallet that I learned about at my recent OC Meetup.  As we discussed gift cards and credit cards, an attendee pulled out his wallet and started looking for a specific card.  Then another attendee pulled out his wallet and noticed that they had the same wallet.  They both had the Allett, a super thin wallet capable of holding cash and up to 24 credit cards.  I decided to buy an Allett and test it out myself (Amazon).

1 Call to Citi to Inquire about 5 Credit Card Retention Offers

Good morning everyone, this is going to be a short post about the retention offers I received on my 5 Citi credit cards.  Before I go on, I highly recommend reading Doctor of Credit’s post on Retention Bonus Rules & Tips For Each Card Issuer – Get More Than One Bonus Each Year.  I called Citi yesterday to tell them I was going to make a large “purchase” at Target with my Citi American Airlines Executive Credit Card.  After the rep was able to add the spending note to my card, I asked if there were any spending or retention offers available.
