Just wanted to let everyone know that I converted my Chase TravelPlus card to the Chase Cash Plus card and then last month after reading this thread called to have the bonus points for getting this card added. I gave them the code for the 10,000 points/$100 bonus but today I received 5000 points/$50 bonus instead. I'm not going to complain, however, seeing as this is very unusual to get any bonus for a product conversion. Just wanted to give everyone the heads up.

If by 'us' you have another adult in your household, why not have that person also get a card for the 2nd half of the year?

Alcibiades said:z0mb13 said:so basically closing OLD accounts can hurt your score.. so if I open this and close it after I get the $100 then I am fine, right ?b/c of the Hard Inquiry, you will temporarily lose 3-4 FICO points for 7 months. Grab the $100 unless you are buying a house next month.

I recently got a Chase w/$100 bonus and a Citi AA w/15,000 bonus miles (gets me a free ticket). Now I want a AMEX Delta w/20,000 miles to get me a free ticket (already have 10000 miles from that silly game they ran several months ago).

Question: Is there any negative effect to keep applying for more of these bonus deals in the next week, other than a temporarily lower FICO (which I don't care about since my FICO is already ~770 and I don't plan to buy a home in the next year)? I'm thinking of going for the $100 Citi deal at least, and so far my hard inq's are spread out on the different credit agencies.

What if I get rejected for a CC, is that somehow tracked in my credit history (other than the hard inq?)

I just signed up for this card on chase.com and didn't see this thread about any Cash Back on first purchase.. Will they honor if I call Chase once I recieve it? Has anyone done this?

I would try to call them and see what they say. More than likely you won't get the 10,000 point credit. Good luck!

got it.

Is there an online place where you can check your points?

Yes, it is www.choosemyrewards.com. You must register your card via the website, and after that everything is tracked for you.

Do you have to make a payment first, or just purchases? It won't even let me make an account on choosemyreward.com.. says invalid billing zip code. There a help number for this service?

I use HG1 too. Thanks OP.
