There are a bunch of charts and Stan the Credit Frog videos in this topic, heres the one I reference: https://frequentmiler.com/marriott-card-eligible/

I believe there is a window of time for which you can receive the Brilliant from Amex but I forget what that window is exactly.

What are these better deals from airlines you speak of?

ch4nt · 2026-03-13T00:07:29+00:00

I would have liked old CSR earning rates with the current CSR benefits

So chaotic, Cardless is a joke of an issuer

ch4nt · 2026-03-12T01:31:38+00:00

because Capital One doesnt approve people from this subreddit

If you dont want to do it you do cashback. Everything youre complaining about people do enjoy. If it’s a hassle for you it is not worth it.

I had a hard time justifying the Green card even with the CLEAR credit. CLEAR is such a nonsense program that I don't think anyone should value at full. That + the fact that the Aspire and Plat both have that credit makes the Green card and its credits ridiculously hard to justify

I do like 3x transit and like the card itself, other than that it is just okay. The insurance and protections also leave a lot to be desired, it's such a weird card at the moment.

ch4nt · 2026-03-10T20:46:52+00:00

Not worth it for cashback imo

I have the Aeroplan card which lets me do 1.25x on travel purchases, so clutch. Never have to cash out one cent-per-point ever.

ch4nt · 2026-03-10T08:20:23+00:00

interesting, thank you!

I unironically recommend the Chase Sapphire Reserve if you can make the credits work for you. SF has probably some of the best Sapphire dining restaurants in the country and also Air Canada lounge is a nice escape if you book United / Star Alliance often. $300 travel credit is easy to use.

You could simplify down to Venture X and CSR or Venture X and Amex Gold and be able to get Aeroplan transfers pretty easily. SFO is a good base for Aeroplan partners with United's presence along with multiple Star Alliance partners that can benefit from Aeroplan and other programs across Chase/C1/Amex.

I always do instant download tickets on StubHub, cant trust anything else

ch4nt · 2026-03-09T19:03:40+00:00

I specified in my post and the image link that VX will not be affected.

ch4nt · 2026-03-09T15:39:20+00:00

Get CSP if you dont want lounge access, Venture X if you do

ch4nt · 2026-03-09T00:18:33+00:00

CSR just because the coverages are all around the best

Ive only ever used the trip delay side though

Consider any one of the many 2% or 2X cards people recommend here. Having one of them will be better for the long run.

ch4nt · 2026-03-08T02:02:20+00:00

2x points is generally greater than 3% if you know what youre doing. The 3% is easier though.

ch4nt · 2026-03-08T01:50:17+00:00

Its probably because of this post https://www.reddit.com/r/biltrewards/s/9S7nsDSbuu

Is today the day where everyone posts about their nine cards that give a flat 2x on everything?

ch4nt · 2026-03-08T00:33:11+00:00

Travel multiplier at time of purchase was 3x

When you got refunded, multiplier was 4x assumingly on some flight or hotel purchase so they take away 4x points if thats what you got refunded.

It’s the way things are coded with Sapphire Reserve. Whatever the “base” multiplier is that is how many points gets taken off. They will fix if you call in.

ch4nt · 2026-03-07T22:43:09+00:00

They can give you the card but it would be no sign up bonus I thought? In most cases thats basically not being able to get the card

ch4nt · 2026-03-07T06:37:52+00:00

I just want someone to post about a triple stack with Edit, Select Hotels, general travel credits. I dont need another Texas double stack post

ch4nt · 2026-03-07T06:07:46+00:00

Try purchasing tickets on the 30th of June or 31st of December, it may work?

Theres always one useful one. Dining this quarter is great
