American Express CANCELLED ALL my cards | My Story
Nice informative video. Are you sure its 4 priority pass visit per year or its per card?
Capital One always has the most straight-forward options, it seems. Really love that amount of flexibility. That coupled with the price match, flight disruption/sometimes flight insurance, and price freeze makes me really enjoy using them! It's a shame the other travel portals don't really keep up with that.
I totally agree
👍🏼👍🏼. I can’t see myself getting this card. Might be great for the road warriors out there though.
💯
I was just in Dallas and the centurion lounge was extremely packed, this one seems to have better snack options as well.
I loved it
Very informative video. Btw, I read somewhere that you could pay the annual fee using the miles on the card @ 1.5 miles per dollar. Which means the annual fee is about 6,333 points. If you get a SUB of 50K points, that covers nearly 8 years of annual fees - EVEN IF you didn't use the card anytime during all those years.
😎💪🏿😎
I want to go to that airport lounge, please because its so luxurious and super modern and cold there.
Try is out. It's nice
This is exactly what I needed to see. I just booked my first business class flight, and I've never visited a lounge before. I've been looking for information about which lounge I would be allowed to visit since Copa doesn't have its own lounge but is part of the Star Alliance. You made it very clear who has access. Thank you. I have such an early flight. I hope there's a comfy seat and some hot coffee for me tomorrow morning.
Let me know what you think about it after you visit
@@ScottLeRay As it turned out only the Turkish Airline lounge was open the morning of my flight. It was nice. Small but comfortable and the breakfast selection had something for everyone. . Everything on the breakfast buffet was delicious and the correct temperature.
Amazing video!!
Thanks!
I had 2 Amex that were cancelled unpaid them off and I still can’t get a new Amex card.
Wow
@@ScottLeRayI am a points and miles traveler. After I paid off the accounts I was offered Optima card, my accountant said to decline the offer. Ever since, I have not been able to get approved again. I received a mailer for Hilton Aspire and was declined a few days ago. I only want to obtain an Amex because those points matter for me.
The annual fee is now $650, but in my opinion, still worth it.
I haven't flown Delta in a while, but it's definitely worth it for someone who flies very often
I have a Venture but it was a product change, I was never able to get the sign up bonus. I wonder if I could apply for a second one. 🤔
It super hard to get a second Venture card
I was able to get both the Venture and Venture X, so try checking their pre-approval tool periodically.
I have the Venture X and really enjoy it. My P2 got a pre approval for the Venture so we may pick it up just for the SUB and down grade afterwards keeping the Venture X. It’s a simple and easy to use catch all card
I want to upgrade to the Venture X, but I'm in the process of getting rid of some of my high annual fee cards. I have a gang of them at the moment.
They never pre-approve me for this, but iv wanted it for a while for the easy bonus
It was one of the first cards I got when I started the points and miles thing. That was back when they gave you 10x back at hotels.com, and then hotels.com turned around and gave you your 10th night free (another 10x). That was great times.
The food is crap not worth the money to spend on the membership
Even for people traveling 15 - 20 times a year?
I love your videos. Keep it coming ❤❤
Thanks. I appreciate that
Get the United Business card and downgrade the Explorer to the Gateway. Same annual fee, same 2 lounge passes, but you get 5,000 bonus miles annually by having the business and a personal card.
Well played for anyone into business cards.
The waived bag fees is worth the AF fee alone and makes this a keeper card IMO. Thanks for the info + video!
Facts 💯
I have the Strata Premier & it’s a workhorse. Makes sense to get the Double Cash next after looking at the spending breakdown in my Citi app. The quadfecta easily pays for itself every year. I’m stoked to be in Citi’s ecosystem. I’m looking forward to hearing how it goes when someone makes a claim with Strata travel protections. I’m slightly worried that it will be difficult to successfully make a claim and be compensated.
I love the pay yourself feature so you can use miles to cover the annual fee. I also have the barclay American Airlines aviator red card and that also has great benefits.
I've been looking at that Barclay's card lately.
I had the united airlines explorer card but I updated my card to the quest card because I have over 5000.miles on united airlines and I feel that you can get better states on the quest card over the explorer card
I like the quest also. I'll definitely be upgrading if I start flying United more often.
Damn Chase 5/24
Sucks right
I am in the same boat and the no baggage fees - is more then the $95 annual fee.
Facts!
About to pick up the Citi AA Platinum. Ima grab it for the slightly elevated SUB and test out in the first year while the AF is waived if I can 1) Fly enough on AA to keep it around and 2) if stacking with the AA dining and AA shipping portal with my normal spend can get me high enough status.
Sounds like a good plan. I could use some AA miles right about now.
I don't have any Citi cards yet. I plan to at least 4 of them.
Which one do you plan on getting first?
@@ScottLeRay The CSP. I will use the 10X on an independent hotel.
@@earlthomas7464 10x is major!
In my experience they like to lie about the upgrade availability if you book more than a basic room. They really don’t want you upgraded to something actually nice and have told me the room I booked is the upgraded version.
I've had that experience in the U.S....but never international
Citi is the next issuer I want to break into. Just got a slightly elevated AA card offer so perfect way to enter
That's what's up. What's your current set up looking like?
@@ScottLeRay right now I use the Gold for Food/Dining, Venture X for catch all, Savor for entertainment, and for hotel I have been working up the Hilton ladder and just need the aspire at this point to complete the Hilton line up. Depending on how nice Citi will be for me grabbing some of their other cards I want to at least grab what I can for the subs and mix in a custom cash or two for some other expenses.
If they ever approve me i will😂
😅
Total will start getting citi cards... currently only hold the reward+ card.
I can dig it. To get the most out of that particular card, you need the Citi Strata Premier.
Love the Citi ecosystem! Been using the Citi QuadFecta for several months and is great. Great overview and information!🫵
Thanks Cesar
Did you apply? I wanna to but also had to respect chase 5/24, lol! Appreciate your insightful analysis brother 👍
I've had this card for a few years now. Since before the revamp.
Is that breakfast or lunch/dinner time?
This was around midnight
Next time I fly United I'm going to buy the one day lounge pass. It's only like 65 or 55 dollars
That, our you can get the United Explorer card
Got the United Explorer card. I live near newark airport and only fly united. Occasionally, go to LA and SD, so the free luggage is a benefit. @ScottLeRay
Nothing is free. So sorry to say. It’s reality.
I hope everyone knows this
Dude been loving ya vids in Africa and now stumbled across ya credit card page . Super solid ! Will be in Africa Oct / nov. hoping we can collab on a vid!
That's what's up. Hit me up over on Instagram
Does $125 United credit apply from very first year? How about two 5k miles award reimbursement? Does that one apply from the very first year?
Yes and yes
💯💯💯
💯
Great setup! Thanks for the info + video!
Thanks Jimmy
I thought the Prestige was 5x on dining and air travel. Did it get lowered to 3x?
No. You're totally right. Error on my end. Thanks.
what's in my wallet currently Amex Platinum (doing a sub) Amex Business plus (doing a sub) Amex Gold for dining/grocery Amex blue cash preferred for gas
AMEX King!
That Citi Strata is pretty solid as an every day card.
Facts 💯
Why not the venture x over the venture. Same 2x and the 300 credit is easy to use. And it’s metal 😊
I wish. Can't get approved
Me neither. I ended up product changing to the X.
👍🏼👍🏼
🫡
Love the Citi Strata Premier, Citi Prestige and Aspire!💪Great cards and strategy Scott!🫵 Can’t wait to see what Citi does with the Citi Prestige.
Thanks. I can't wait until the Prestige update also.
Damn a Citi Prestige solider
OG status. Lol
Admirals is great. For now, there is usually plenty of room unlike centurion. Then I found out about the flagship lounge lol now I really want to see what that’s like
I love it as well
Thanks man, Just got my autograph card myself. I'm going to try to go to Alsace France next year after racking up some points
Wow. That's cool. Enjoy France!
I just got approved for the altitude go which will pair nicely with my amex blue cash everyday and wells fargo active cash card.
Chase gives you that little Sapphire points multiplier, but Citi just earns better all around.
Facts
My Strata Premier is coming in the mail! I might go for the quadfecta.
That's what's up
I product change from from citi AA card too the strata and got a 40.000 pt offer for spending $2000 about half the bonus but im happy
Wow. That's awesome
