How Fast do the $50 Hilton Credits Post on the American Express Hilton Honors Surpass Credit Card?

Posted on by . 6 Replies

Good morning everyone, I hope your week is going well.  A few weeks ago, I wrote about My 6 Credit Card App-O-Rama: Results & Reconsideration Calls.  In that post, I shared that I was approved for the American Express Hilton Honors Surpass Credit Card (referral link) that currently offers a 170,000 Hilton Honors Points sign up bonus after spending $3,000 in 6 months and a $200 Hilton Credit ($50 credit per quarter).  If you have had the Surpass card before, here is the No Lifetime Language offer for the Hilton Surpass (this is the link I used since I had the Surpass a few years ago).  In this post, I wanted to discuss the $200 Hilton Credit and share my experience with the credit.

My 6 Credit Card App-O-Rama: Results & Reconsideration Calls

Posted on by . 8 Replies

Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday!  A few weeks ago, I applied for 6 new credit cards in my most recent App-O-Rama (which doesn’t work as well as it used to work, back in the good ol’ days), but I wanted to share my results and reconsideration calls.  Warning: I don’t recommend applying for multiple cards in the same day (“do as I say, not as I do”).  With that said, I started with the American Express Blue Business Plus Credit Card that has a 75,000 American Express Membership Rewards Points signup bonus after spending $15,000 in 12 months.  Check out this Doctor of Credit post for more info.

Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday!  I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found 8 offers that end this month.  Always check the math to make sure that buying miles & points makes sense for you.  Do not buy miles & points speculatively unless you have a use in mind.  With that said, here are 8 offers that end soon.

Up first, JetBlue is offering up to a 70% bonus, depending on the number of JetBlue TrueBlue Points you purchase.  This offer expires today – October 20.

Leading Hotels of the World (LHW): Instant Citi ThankYou Point Transfers (1000:200) & 500 Bonus Points for Completing Profile

Posted on by . 7 Replies

Updated 10/18/23 at 5pm PT: ~24 hours after completing my profile, I received the 500 bonus points. 

Good morning everyone, I hope your week is going well.  I had a great time presenting at the Chicago Seminars over the weekend and seeing some new and familiar faces.  Yesterday, Frequent Miler wrote a post about Leading Hotels of the World (LHW) becoming the latest Citi ThankYou Point transfer partner.  More transfer partners are always appreciated, so I decided to sign up for a free LHW account and search around.  As of today (October 17), there are 415 high end boutique properties spread out across the world.
