Best Posts Last Week: 90k Delta Gold Offer, 5% Categories & More

American Express has increased the sign up bonus on the Bonvoy Brillaint card to 125,000 points + $200 restaurant credit and on the Bonvoy Business card to 100,000 points and a $150 statement credit. It’s also possible to get a 90,000 mile bonus on the Delta gold card. You can now enroll in the 5% rotating categories for Q2 2021. There is a rumor that American Express plans to increase the annual fee on the personal Platinum card and that Wells Fargo plans to discontinue the Propel cards.

The $600 bonus from FNB is back for those in MD, VA & NC but seems to be in branch only. There is also a $300 bonus from Salem Five for those in MA & NH, but it is a hard pull unfortunately. Bank of the West has a $600 checking bonus with targeted language, but that hasn’t been enforced in the past. Merrill Edge brokerage bonuses might be ending for good soon as well.

The Chase Offer for $35 back when spending $35+ at AT&T is back. Delta is offering Seattle area members a $100 credit. T-Mobile’s popular free line on us promotion is back again. Expedia is now saying that points can no longer be used to purchase flights as well.
