FINAL STAMP
American Express allows you to earn the welcome bonus on each of their cards once per lifetime. If you’re unfamiliar with this rule, READ THIS FIRST.
But for simplicity, this means that if you have earned the bonus on ONE of these cards, you are still eligible to earn it on the other three. For example, if you have (or have had) the Delta SkyMiles Gold Card, you could get the bonus miles on the Delta SkyMiles Platinum card.
To do this, you’ll need to apply for a completely new card. DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR EXISTING ACCOUNT because American Express sent you an email and said you are “now eligible for an amazing upgrade.”
Forget what people have told you about Delta SkyMiles, they’re back in vogue and regaining some of their value back (sort of). But with these new highest-ever Delta credit card offers, there has never been a better time to apply!
Who is applying for one of the new cards? Which one looks good?
They have been targeting with the Reserve card for the last few years. This is be best deal I’ve seen yet, despite the increase in fee. I think I’m going to have to make a move on this one! Thanks for the reminder. Almost forgot the offer expires April 1.
