Our Verdict
Last month we saw the same sign up bonus, but it also came with MQM. I think the main reason to get this card is usually the MQM, but I guess people also want the Delta Sky Club access. Personally I don’t think this bonus is worth doing, but if you’re going to do it then a self referral or a referral from a friend would make sense as that way you’re getting an additional bonus to make up for the fact this offer has no MQM. I won’t be adding this to the best credit card bonusesbecause of that. As always if you have questions about, please read this post first before asking them.I’m not going to make a referral thread for this card and please do not post your referral links in the comments.
