Here are several posts that I encourage you to check out because when I read them I was making mental notes:
- Milenomics has a great chart of airline partners + alliance chart
- New Wells Fargo credit cards
- Retail credit cards, as you may know, I am also looking into retail credit cards as well
- Freequent Flyer Book summarizes FTU @ Seattle – I learned that LH Miles and More is through them and not points.com
- Here’s an oldie but goodie that Amol @ HackMyTrip wrote that I’ve been meaning to write about, but haven’t had a chance. His article summarizes cashback cards very well and is something that I have put a considerable amount of thought into
- Be sure to check out Doctor Of Credit’s post on Swagbucks + Staples. This was the big opportunity to profit buying $200 Visa gift cards on Staples online
- The best cash back credit card you should sign up for
- As well as the best travel cash back credit you should sign up for
In a separate note, I stumbled upon buying a gift card online with a gift card and after the purchasing the gift card still had its original value. I am NOT going to test it, but there’s a giant fraudulent loophole I will never look into.
Basically, it looks like there’s a lag of when your credit card has been charged and the downstream system hasn’t registered the gift card has been used. This gives you a window, not sure the time, to allow you to use the gift card again. Scary thoughts that it’s even remotely possible.
Thanks for including the link to my swagbucks post! My swagbucks account is now showing as pending, so I don’t see why the points wouldn’t post. Did you ever get my e-mail about bank accounts that are credit card fundable?
Anytime! Hopefully the pending isnt’ like my UPromise + Best Buy experience, pending for over 4 months.
I did not see the email, searched through my inbox + spam and didn’t see anything. Could you try again?
Just tried again, hopefully it goes through this time. If not, send me an e-mail to will at doctorofcredit.com so I can reply to that!
Yup, just saw it!
