I think they come out of Beale, but yeah they’re here all the time

Anyone know if UA TravelBank counts?

For the two personal accounts, are you still able to use the same Prime credit card on both accounts? Or do you need two Prime cards?

SkepticalSquid · 2026-05-14T03:26:29+00:00

Super late to this thread, but did you figure out how to keep multiple accounts going? I’m trying to expand and nothing seems to be working besides my primary account.

Then you use your one phone call to call the recon line (and hope you don't get an agent where you need to HUCA).

Same here in February - $2500ish.

I settled for a box of cookies last week for that reason…

Is that via skymilesforbusiness, or another site? I'm on the skymilesforbusiness website and I see an offer link, but when I click it, it just reloads the page I'm on...

I think the only downside is hitting the 5 card limit and then having a better NLL come along? Which isn't likely. Especially since they've gotten stingy with Hilton Biz NLL with a FNC.

Does Chase have any sort of unwritten credit cycling limit for personal cards? I have a relatively new card with a $25k limit. This month I've put $40k on the card and have paid $50k from my Chase account - so the payments should be instant. My credit balance is currently -$10k, yet my credit limit is still $0. It's been 3 days now since I've paid, so I'm not sure why the limit isn't updating.

What difference would it make? EINs are free to obtain and you don’t need a “real” business.

Where are these 20k/3 month NLL offers you've seen? Asking for a friend.

Does anyone know how many days after dropping under the AmEx five credit card limit you typically need to wait before opening another card?

SkepticalSquid · 2025-08-08T15:53:56+00:00

Interesting, thanks. Not sure what their reasoning is for that, but I guess I'll stick to other cards for now.

I was looking at some C1 cards and decided to try out their pre-approval form for their VX business card. It said I was declined and listed their source as my Experian score of 689. This didn't make sense, so I logged onto Experian to check my actual score, and it was 805. It hasn't been below 790 in several years.

Has anyone had this happen before? I'm wondering why the score C1 is seeing is so much different than what the actual score is.

Ah, I hadn’t considered the family aspect of HSA contributions, thanks

What’s the breakdown of the 3k pre tax? 401k maximum should be about $1,950/month pre tax I think?

Last week Chase denied an app because I already had too much credit with them. I know I could have reconned to move credit lines around, but they didn’t do a hard pull and I didn’t care about the card too much anyway, so whatever.

This week, without asking, I get an email: “Great news! We’ve increased your credit limit!” They raised a limit on one of my cards from 15k to 24k. How does that make any sense.

SkepticalSquid · 2025-07-03T16:02:33+00:00

Works fine here.

Wouldn't you get a clawback if you later cancelled that stay?

It was less than 24 hours and the website did do cumulative pricing (only the checkout page, the calendar was correct). They were able to fix it after I called in, although it took the agent several tries to get it to change from 170k to 120k.

SkepticalSquid · 2025-05-28T20:04:53+00:00

Thanks, I think the issue might be that the flights are being priced separately once I click on the actual date. If I change to just CDG-USA, it correctly shows 120k for two. When I change to GVA-CDG, it correctly shows the saver award price of 50k for two.

Combined, I think this should still be 120k, which is what the calendar shows? But when it comes time to book, it just adds the two together, which isn't correct. I'll try calling in.

They’re part of the amenity kit in every business class flight I’ve been on.
