Last week we provided you with a full list of all the third party American Express credit cards (ranked in order of worst to best and also sorted into no annual fee/annual fee cards), this is especially useful given all the great recent AmEx sync offers/AmEx check out offers there has been. We also let you know about the Discover Premium & Discover Premium Plus cards and how to get invited to get your card upgraded (as well as all the benefits these cards have). Citi was also forced by the CFPB to refund customers $700 in add on credit card charges and unfair billing practices, find out what these means for you. You should also ask for a refund if your a SunTrust Delta debit cardholder and aren’t happy with the changes they made to the cards earning structure recently.
There were two bank bonuses that we added last week. BMO Harris has upped their nationwide bonus to $200 (previously $150), but it looks like their online applications still aren’t working and you need to go in branch to complete the offer. TIAA is also offering a $150 checking + $50 savings bonus, unfortunately it’s a hard pull.
There were a lot of great deals last week (best being the $9.5 profit you could make per amex card with amex check out, but that’s now dead). For example, you can get 5,000 American Airlines miles for getting a free Solar quote, double gas rewards points at Stop & Shop/Giants and you can maximize your fuel rewards points at Kroger with a free cellphone service.
