Product change should affect your 5/24 because its not a new account.
Not sure what you mean about 5/24 being exclusive to Chase. If its about non-chase cards counting towards 5/24, then no its not exclusive. Any card on your personal credit report counts towards 5/24. If its about 5/24 applying to cards with other banks like amex or capital one, then yes its is exclusive to just chase. each bank has their own rules for signing up for cards, but 5/24 seems to be the harshest and only applies to chase cards.

what are you looking for in your next card exactly?
Do you get AF waived for any card or just CSR?

Btw those applying for IHG, make sure to ask to be matched to the 80k offer.
any chance of them matching to 80k points with still just 1k spend? that offer is supposedly still going around through targeted mailers and dummy bookings. I havent been able to find one though, only seen the 2k spend offers.

csr will be hard to beat for no AF. if you value points, can spend $8000 on cards in the next 3 months, and haven't gotten the sapphire preferred yet, you should consider applying for both on the same day. chase has a rule now that you can only get 1 sapphire product at a time, but people have been successful in getting both by applying on the same day. the current signup offers are 60k points after $4k spend on preferred, and 50k points after $4k spend on reserve.
if you're looking for just a higher signup bones, ink business preferred has a 100k point offer after 5k spend if you go into a chase branch and meet with a business relationship manager.
hotel cards to consider would be the marriott cards because they are supposed to be going away this year, and the ritz carlton card because it comes with 2 free nights and a lot of useful perks.

Sweet appreciate it.

if you do ANYTHING outside of your regular job to earn money that can count as a business. cut grass, dog sit, give private lessons, sell stuff on ebay, etc. even if you don't, there are plenty of people that claim a "business" on their applications and get approved.

Will a product change from CSR to Freedom unlimited affect my 5/24?
No.

Also 5/24 isn’t exclusive to just Chase correct?
Correct, they are checking your whole credit report for 5 new accounts over the past 24 months from any issuer.

But if I’m at 4/24 I should be able to apply for both Southwest cards at the same time and it should go through right?
I think I’m at 4/24 I need to confirm first.

All Southwest cards count against 5/24 including the business card so the second one would be 6/24 and deny.
HOWEVER, some people have reported success getting two cards applied for at the same time to approve when at 4/24. If you try this I would do it on two different browsers at exactly the same time.
Your mileage may vary

That’s what I was going to do.

I'm looking to expand my card options as well. I'm at 5/24 (so no Chase availability; already have CSR, CSP, United Explorer, Freedom) and got declined by AMEX (currently have the Platinum) for the EveryDay card (ugh). They said I haven't been a customer long enough to open a new one(?). I got the Platinum in December 2017, so maybe that's why.
I'm thinking about the Citi ThankYou Premier Card. Anyone have any advice on this card? Once I hit the minimum spend for the 50K points, I would use it as my gas card (3x points).

I earned and burned that card some time ago using the points as cash. Didn't feel like messing with their travel partners but someone willing to figure them out could go that route.

Mileage Plus X got fricking nerfed
This is bullshite.
Lesrned earlier this week you won't be able to buy Amazon Egift cards online anymore starting on the 1st, which means to get 5x I have to physically buy the damn things again. Ugh

I've only been into this for a few months. Between things like mpx going away, Amex cracking down on MS and clawing back bonuses, and chase shutdowns all happening in the recent weeks, I have to wonder how awesome this hobby would've been even just a couple years ago when the banks weren't monitoring this stuff nearly this closely

3- I get the AF waived
Unless you guys have another recommendation I’m rolling with this one.
If you get the AF waived, I would jump on the CSR asap and the amex platinum once they offer you the 100k signup bonus. Both are absolute no brainers with the AF waived.

I'm planning a trip to Bali, so first class in Singapore, Cathay, Etihad are all options with Citi as travel partners... especially Singapore, since they partner with Chase and Amex as well.
I'll probably drop it after transferring the points
Posted on 3/30/18 at 5:55 pm to Wideman
Ya I didn't have an Asia trip on tap which is where I would have used them.
Ended up a few years later burning 280k American on Cathay for this October.
I earn UR like crazy so the Singapore option is always there. Saving that for hopefully Japan in 2020. I hope between Singapore, Korean, ANA and Asiana I can find something

OD/OM is doing the $10 of $300 MasterCard deal this week. I need to learn more about serve to unload those things. Last time I ended up just using them for regular spend since it was so difficult to get MOs at WallyWorld
