– The 10 commandments of churning

Just because a particular bank tells you that they won’t award a sign-up bonus to prior customers doesn’t mean that they actually behave as written. Just because a credit card company says that they won’t award points if you buy a gift card doesn’t mean that you won’t see points when you buy a gift card.

Conversely, just because a crypto company says that you’re eligible for a sign-up bonus doesn’t mean they’ll pay it out unless you force their hand.

Happy Tuesday, and always be probing.

Wednesday Weather forecasts are advisory too.
