I love credit cards so much! v5.0 - 2022 (see first page for add'l details)

I can see availability through July 2023. How many people are you trying to book in each room?

I had tried everything, any number of people, different lengths of stays, etc. And it showed nothing. But now things are popping up. It also keeps erroring, so they much just be having some issues with the website!

I have not activated mine yet nor never used instacart but what I understand is that it is their paid membership program sort of like what we get from doordash for free with the CSR.

I believe there are $0 delivery fees but of course you have to tip.

Apparently there are some stores that allow you to pick up which saves you 5% more.

I’m so glad y’all brought this up! I activated my membership last night. I’ve been searching for a particular cereal for my son and found it at Food Lion through Instacart. Ordered 4 boxes for pickup (no fees at all) and picked them up this morning. Total cost - $15.06, so I got 4 boxes of cereal for 6 cents! I think the value in this benefit is definitely if you are willing to do pickup instead of delivery.

If they brought back PYB in the categories we had at first I'd PC my CSP back to a CSR instantly!

I agree. Dining is nice but being able to reimburse yourself for Disney Gift cards and getting the 4x fuel points at Kroger's was even sweeter

This is awesome do you know anything about the 5% off or whatever for pickup?

I assume this gets credited to your instacart account as the way I read the TOS with the offer is that the purchase will go through for the full amount on your CSR and then chase gives you a $15 statement credit.

I believe it will be similar to how doordash was working before they switched it to $5 monthly credits that doordash gives.

Edit one last thing, I see it mentions Delta anyway to double dip and get skymiles too?

At this point I suppose I should have signed up already for my free account!!

I’m so disappointed. I have had my American Express Gold Delta SkyMiles card since 2016, and I have never been late. I was one day late (paid on Sunday instead of Saturday), and they charged me a $29 late fee on a $30 balance. I called on Monday and requested that they waive the late fee as a one time courtesy. It’s Friday and the late fee is still there. If they won’t take the late fee off, I am considering downgrading to Blue, because I’m not feeling very valued as a customer right now. The prorated refund on the annual fee will wipe out the late fee.
I actually use my IHG Rewards card as my daily driver, so I’m fine without the Gold.

You can do pu with instacart? Now I need to read these posts. I thought it was only good for delivery which doesn't interest me, credits or not.

Instacart does have pickup locations. I live just far enough out that nothing delivers to my area. I pick up our uber eats each month to use up our AmEx credits and last month I picked up an instacart order at Aldi to use the CSR credit. I'm trying to figure if there is a way to use the CF credits if you're already using the CSR credits, but I haven't figured out how to do it yet.


As far as I can tell, Door Dash doesn't have any pickup locations around me, so I haven't been able to figure out how to use that one yet.

I've been sitting here obsessively checking my Informed Delivery emails because it said I should get the Venture X in "1 to 3 business days" and I was so disappointed that it hadn't appeared yet.

They sent it FedEx

In any case, I have it now!

I would call again. In 30+ years of credit card payments, I would hate to add up how many late fees I've had (it probably averages about 1 per year) and I have never not had one reversed.

Same. So which credit card has this Instacart credit?

 

[reliev]

I'm tempted by this offer. Can you tell me if St. Louis is one of the home cities/airports available?

it's over the code was 24 hours next time I see it up I can check. (maybe the code will still work but this is what the post said) and yes it's there.

all the chase cards have additional credits the CSR has the biggest one at 15$ has anyone tried rotating the cards? I don't need food I went to Costco so I'm delaying the membership until i need it (so I can get the longest benefits)

 

[reliev]

almost jumped on that NYC deal but I keep forgetting I took too many days off this year I cannot recommend this site enough for great deals. (thrifty traveler)
edit I'm looking for next year I found some for 160 over the weekend unbelievable lol

Oh yes! I got a 74 cent credit for picking up. I'm assuming I can apply that towards a future order, but I'm not positive. And I'm also assuming that I'll get a statement credit for $15 on my CSR, just like a statement credit when I use a Chase offer. Now I just need to remind myself to use this each month!

 

[reliev]

the sub already paid for itself 600$ for 3 us non-stop to NYC booked.. (after the huge taxes for the airport)

I do pu with uber eats, grub hub and door dash to use my credits. Mostly I go to Johnny rockets, mod pizza abd red robin. The owner of JR knows my name from my monthly pu's

I'll have to look into Insta cart. I don't mind picking stuff up to get some "free" food.

ETA the only place close to me with pu is a local chain drug store that has crazy prices so will have to see what I can get.

The insta credit is 15 per month on csr?

Just a heads up, but another report on Reddit this morning of Chase Ink denial due to “applying from a sanctioned country.” I can’t remember who this happened to here recently, but this is very bizarre, and while not common, the fact that this is one of multiple reports should make it something to be aware of.

I think I'd start applying from my phone on the cell network to avoid this. Not sure how else you could avoid it.

Not a lot of AMEX experience, so help me out - just applied my P2 for the AMEX Plat through the Resy offer. Got a "we can't give you an answer right now," "we'll send you a decision within 14 days" message. Is this routine or concerning? And is my best bet for an update to keep an eye on P2's AMEX account for the card to (hopefully) appear, or is there a better way to stalk AMEX's decision?
