EDITOR’S NOTE: I’ve been out of the country for a couple of weeks, but I’m now back. I tried to keep up on responding but fell woefully behind. I’ll do my best to catch-up by the end of the week though.
- The generic American Express no-lifetime language (NLL) landing pages for the Business Gold and Business Platinum have new offers:
– Business Gold: 125,000 Membership Rewards after $10,000 spend in three months
– Business Platinum: 175,000 Membership Rewards after $15,000 spend in three months
The generic NLL landing pages for the Blue Business Plus and Blue Business Cash cards are currently offline, but I expect they’ll come online with new offers soon. Of course, there are better offers out there with lifetime language, so I’ll share my recent favorite phrase: context matters. - Chase is switching its insurance provider from eClaimsLine to Assurant on October 1, and if you rely on credit card insurance then it’s probably worth skimming the new terms and conditions for upcoming fall and winter travel. Highlights:
– Some cards have increased rental car coverage to $60,000 to match the Sapphire Reserve
– Extended warranty benefit limits reset annually
I’ve had great luck with eClaimsLine (see the $16,000 smashed Audi claim for example), but we can flush the entire internet’s wealth of knowledge on claims down the toilet on October 1. (Thanks to DDG) - Some American Express personal Gold referrals have a heightened bonus of 100,000 Membership Rewards after $6,000 spend in six months and statement credits for 20% back at restaurants up to $500 in spend. Also, some cats are afraid of cucumbers. (*)
The referrer gets an additional 15,000 – 35,000 Membership Rewards too, but not in the cucumber case.
Happy Wednesday!
Context matters, illustrated.
