It looks like we have a new opportunity to get American Express cards without the one bonus per lifetime language, this requires something now known as a pre-approval referral offer. You’ll need to be referred using a special pre-approved offer that has been sent out to some cardholders, we’re letting readers share their referral details here. When using a link, make sure it’s one of these offers and not a regular referral as some people are being dishonest. Sign up bonus on the Chase Freedom Unlimited is now $200. American Express has sent out more authorized user and pay over time targeted bonuses.
T-Mobile launched ‘T-Mobile Money” and you can earn up to 4% APY on balances up to $3,000. We also saw the return of some of the more popular bank bonuses such as the $300 Hancock Whitney bonus available in LA, MS, FL, AL, TX. M&T is offering up to $300 for those in CT, DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA, VA, WV, as always a full list of bank bonuses that were added last week can be viewed below.
IHG is offering an easy 5,000 points for free, the deal has already ended once before they added additional points so get in quick. Chase Pay is offering $8 off Quiznos when you order ahead & Chase checking customers can get a $5 Starbucks bonus when sending a $5 Starbucks gift card. If you’re in the giving mood then PayPal will add an additional 1% to your charity donations through December 31st, 2018. In worse news a massive data breach at SPG has affected 500 million customers.
As always a lot of the good deals have already expired, make sure to either follow us on Twitter, get instant notifications or get daily e-mail updates so you don’t miss any deals. If we missed any deals or you have an idea for a post, please let us know ([email protected] or [email protected]).Â

Two local Oregonians, filed a Class-action vs. SPG on Friday. $12.5 billion in costs and losses.
This should equate to $25 for each of the 500 million user’s data that was breached.
(This is similar to the cost for the overhead of a Reward nite stay). Sadly like so many Corporation’s now a days they will pay some white shoe wall street legal firm millions to say not our fault. I think that if they offered to those willing to accept compensation of 35k points (IIRC what current annual anniversary night is worth – it would be a huge win for them). While preserving the rights of those who ultimately experience ID theft/credit damage right to seek further compensation.
But simply look at the corporate reaction to employee malfeasance, employee was reprimanded and will be retrained for dragging customer out of seat and off flight and then beating the hell out of them.
On a side note I wonder if Marriott is lamenting the merger as much as end users.
