Big Boy Club……Amex Gold & Platinum Discussion

[Spence]

So you get the credit when your monthly bill is due? And what if I pay my balance off as I go, should i not do that?

Leave the $200 regardless and watch it zero out. Even if you pay it off the will debit the account -$200 against future purchases.

i stopped keeping track of what was working and what wasn’t as soon as people on FlyerTalk claimed the tricks were all washed up. I left $120 on the table this past year

Got a one way flight Tuesday. Finna try out this complimentary Priority Pass at the ATL Airport.


Anyone use the Minute Suites Priority Pass perk?
I already had Delta Sky Club being a Delta Platinum Sky miles member.

Yeah, minute suites was cool for the Nashville airport which had no real lounges. The real gem Is the centurion lounges. That’s the main reason I have the card

I stopped traveling weekly for work last year when I took a job locally here in the A. They been working on the Centurion for Atlanta forever it seems.

Looks like I also have access to The Club in terminal F
Depending on how early I get to the airport, I may check it out

Does car finance help increase your credit score ?

Not as much as you would think

it was a breh on here who put me on to the resy offer, i'd like to thank them cause i just put my girl on it. it's way better than the targeted offers and even cardmatch rn, just the 15x at shop small is worth around $7500 in points after $25k spend. even if you usually don't have as much spend you can eat off this by locally buying fungible shyt like watches, musical instruments, guns, precious metals, coins...

Ok so I thought people were bullshyttin a bit with how people are taken aback when you whip out the gold or plat. So I was at a happy hour table with coworkers and whipped it out for my drinks and the few ladies around my end stopped their conversation and were in awe when they saw the card. I just had a slight grin and kept it moving. I didn’t know I had it like that.

Same, my parents aren’t used to me being in a completely different financial universe than they are because my sisters don’t got it like that and I was brokety broke during all of My 20’s and early 30’s

As far as salary goes, my mom has been at or pretty close to what I have. But she's had to shoulder a heavy burden because my dad is financially ignorant. If he could have gotten his shyt together then they could have been sitting on some money.

So did anyone get these crazy offers
Spend 500 get $500 back 3x
Spend 1000 get $1500 back
People are getting these offers on their cash back amex cards
I got something like spend $1000 get 1,000 points

so these typo offers are actually being honored lmao, some ppl got spend $3.5k to get $6k back 3x

Damn that’s free money, Amex can change their terms at any time as well as clawback whatever they want so I wouldn’t send out $6 racks and risk being stuck holding a bag. Can’t wait for next week though to get that extra $200 for United.

Does car finance help increase your credit score ?

It will but many factors determine to what degree. Is your credit mix good already. Do you already have a robust profile? Years of on time payments or only a couple months. These factor in to how many points you can gain from an installment loan
