I love credit cards so much! v2.0 (see first page for add'l details)

[Albort]

Just realized how much of a pain it is to have 3 Amex cards with the same last 4 numbers. My food order just went to my BCP instead of my Gold card...there go those Amex MR points....Where is the shun corner so I can be with @Albort & @amalone1013?

haha, i have that problem too. but ive been remembering my card expiration date. that seems to help distinguish what card is what.

DP of a $60 retention bonus on a CSP in r churning today. While not unheard of it’s extremely rare to see a retention offer on this card.

ETA: Hot weiners and celery salt!

I have yet to try the hot weiner...and they are all over for sure!

Nice! I would hope Disney doesn't just drop it tomorrow after putting that little sentence in a parks blog post. I checked my Pandora preview e-mail from 2017 and it came on a Friday. Maybe 6/21? I just hope it doesn't come while I am in WDW. It will be harder for me to be as connected, but I will try my best! I am best when I am bored at work

I would be mad but I also wouldn’t care a whole lot. It would be really nice to put the spend toward a new MSR which we can’t have until after closing on our house. I guess we’ll see how things pan out. I do have a question and I’m not sure if you know the answer or not: when we go to Disney springs will we have to pay to park or will our voucher for the APs work?

Amex changes the expiration for the card based on the month it is sent/resent to you. They all have the same month and one has a different year for mine...Both BCP and Gold have the same. I'll request a new card in July to update one.

DoC says another round of Amex adjustments have gone out AT&T $200 Credit is being explicitly mentioned by DoC this time but if you’re missing something Amex owes you check on it (or if you bagged something like a Saks Credit despite returning an item check you don’t now have a balance due).

Thursday. We fly in late late Wednesday night
Wait @Haley R maybe we need to meet when you get passes lol

Me too! Itll probably drop while were on the cruise

Uh okay! Lol we will get to our house Wednesday night and are gonna drive over Thursday. I’m thinking we’ll go to Disney springs to activate them because that should hopefully be easier.

Parking at DS is actually free (unless you choose valet) which is why DS busses don't go directly to parks. People would just park there and bus to parks for free circumventing the parking cost. DS busses only go to WDW resorts.

Parking is free at Springs....I think it is $20 for valet. When we picked up our passes in March, it was an over 2 hour wait.

I'm dying...

Meanwhile as everyone else is clueless... lol (or at least me)

Not expecting anything, and I actually want a Freedom, but could Chase offer a retention bonus if you have two Sapphire products and are trying to change one?

great minds think alike!

Thank you both. Obviously we are newbies at driving in the world.

@MrPTato what time of day did you go? Maybe if we go first thing in the morning it’ll be better?

It was around 11a on a Sunday. They will take your number and text you to come back when it is your turn, although there was a couple people saying they never got the text to return. Almost wished we had done it at a park. Weekday may be better for sure.

lol, just some things Rhode Island is known for! I'm sure most people will be lost too.

It's a hotdog covered in a meat sauce with chopped onion and celery salt.
ETA: Forgot the mustard...also wash it down with coffee milk @vanjust14

@Haley R , the Big Blue Bug did make an appearance in the movie Dumb and Dumber though!

No worries! Pretty soon you guys will be the WDW experts because of how frequently you can go

Would WDW refund the $25 if you got an AP? If not, is @Haley R interested in dining at and WDW resort restaurant in proximity to a ticket window? Could always book a resort ADR, park for free at the resort, eat, get the APs, and head out (thinking it would be easiest CR -> MK, Poly -> TTC, or YC/BC/BWI -> IG)

Not sure on the refund...but that would be a great idea for the ADR. Quickest would probably be CR and walk to MK or one stop to the TTC.

Just saw on another thread that the prices of the AP went up today as of midnight June 18th. @Haley R
