I know that Amex gets a lot of hate here about how it has turned into a coupon book, but what’s more infuriating IMO is when they pull sneaky shit like they’re doing with their “Hilton” offer. I got an email yesterday about member week that highlights the Hilton offer, among other things. I have…

Citi Premier rejection after a 6-week review. It seems they were taken aback by the large number of inquiries and new cards but still wanted to look at it and requested tax records, but they saw that my AGI was much lower than reported in the application and rejected it.

What’s one “rule” of credit cards you didn’t know when you were younger? The one “rule” I didn’t know/understand was that you should always pay your statement balances off in full every month.

Something I spent way too much time typing up on a Facebook group: > The MasterCard Black is only $495 and ( as I understand it) allows more than just the basic card holder to go to the lounges. Oh that’s a big misconception. The MasterCard Black is a problematic credit card product.
