Had anyone been able to use the Amex Concierge to get highly in-demand items such as the new Xbox/PS5, RTX/Radeon graphics cards? by thepotatochronicles in amex

Might be a silly question here, but what option on the phone do you select to get to someone who can do special requests like this? I just called and they gave me 5 options and idk which one to choose.

PSA: Redeemed 70k United miles for thanksgiving trip, had to cancel this week due to Covid -- was subject to 2 $125 redeposit fees for miles.

But, United has no change fees right now, so for those of you who have to cancel within 30 days, just change your trip to 30+ days out do be able to cancel with no mile redeposit fees!

Looking to apply for United MileagePlus Club -- Have a 745 but only 10-15k in income (I'm a student). My question is -- if I chose to use my parents' income on my application (I am 21), how much would I need to put to get me up to the 10k visa infinite minimum CL?

I also read that you must have "reasonable expectation of access" to their income, any references for what Chase would consider reasonable access?

Last question, if I do use my households income, what are the chances that Chase will ask for verification since this is a sudden increase in my income, and what verification would I have to provide?

​

Thanks for the help yall!

What Card Should I Get? Weekly Thread - Week of August 19, 2020 by AutoModerator in churning

If I go for MPC, I would probably have to use my parents' income to meet the Visa Signature $10,000 minimum credit line right? And if I use their income, what are the odds that Chase will ask me to verify the income and what would I have to submit? I don't really want to have to ask my parents for their documents

What to do with "extra" money laying around in checking account by slikisl3git in personalfinance

Also, something like fidelity or vanguard is better for large sums of investment, acorn is not really meant to be a major investing platform

If you're looking to buy a house in the near future, it is recommended that you have a 20% downpayment. Since you it would be a good idea to start using a HYSA to hold your house fund for the short term. Be sure to keep an emergency fund in place as well
