2% cash back at restaurants, gas stations, and drugstores
1% cash back everywhere else
no annual fee
no foreign transaction fees
various insurance perks
purchase and warranty protections
complimentary 24/7 visa signature concierge
room upgrades and VIP status at premium properties in the Visa signature luxury hotel collection.

First post so let me know if I have to change anything

Nevermind original question about which place to unfreeze credit, I went ahead and did it at all of 'em.

Maybe I triggered targeted email from Prime by peeking at deal. Now they offered me Prime Green AMEX 30k pts with 90 days to spend 2K. Hoping they try harder next time.

look up reviews for the card, horror stories with little customer service.

I've had the card for close to 10 years. No complaints

Quote from JakeHoffman1997 :
Awesome card. I've had it for over two years now. Only thing I dont like is that the cash back can only be used on amazon (cant pay statement balance etc.) But I spend enough on amazon that it's not that bothersome. They also have special incentives for 0% financing for big purchases!

Started at $2k upon approval (750+ credit score) by the end of the year they had bumped me to over $8k.

Odd. I solely use points for credits on my statement.

Weird. I actually called them on it when I first got the card. They told me that 5% was only for the main user on the prime account. Everything I have read since then has followed suit.
Maybe I get 5% CB because I'm the primary user of the Chase card even though I'm the secondary user of the Amazon Prime account.

I'm the only user on my card and still get only 3% from Amazon. Sounds like you are getting a deal.

I had the $150 GC on my account...just signed up and was approved instantly.

Interestingly enough, the application confirmation showed that I was approved for a $5k CL. However, after logging into my Chase account, I see $8.3k as my CL instead.

They also pulled both Experian and Equifax.

I've been using my Amex BCP to buy Amazon GCs at the grocery store for the 6% CB, but I'll start using this card instead. It's 1% less in CB, but it'll be nice to have purchase protection and not have to buy GCs to load on my account.

When I signed up for this card my credit score took a big hit from it.Went from good to fair.Not only that but there were fraudulant charges on the card before I ever even got to use it! Chase did fix the fraudulant charges.But how on earth does a creditcard that has never been used even once get fraudulant charges?

Someone who works at the place that processes the card.

I would just apply for their amex business card - $225
I see that deal also.
Easy money, wondering if there is a hard pull associated with this app if I'm already a long time AMEX member with several of their cards.

I'm surprised no one else has shared their experiences about this issue. Hopefully this we'll get to the bottom of it someday.

Was waiting to pay off a credit card to raise my score to then apply for this... Now it's back to $70. Is the $150 deal something that's done throughout the year? Or was this a one time deal?

Do you have the old grandfather shared prime account (4 accounts) or the new joint shared prime account

It's probably the new joint shared prime account because I've never seen anything in our settings that indicates we're allowed more than two users.
