Was also able to replicate this exact offer via Edge incognito. Got approved. What do you guys usually do, to avoid the fees after the first year? And does this card really only "help" you if you fly via Delta often? 70k points = how much dollar wise roughly?

They send me this offer literally twice a month via mail. Been getting a variety of 50-70k for almost 2 years now, is it really a deal if they constantly give it out?

How valiant of you to root them on for this...at SlickDeals!

"Lately" "record profits" is subject to change. Long-term, they are deteriorating their reputation. Terrible customer service on top of this. Ever tried redeeming an "Offer" and gotten them to be accountable for inquiries/cases? They assign "case numbers" and then intentionally block all agents from accessing them.

CITI and Chase pull all three from what I have researched on nerdwallet and the churning subreddit.

thank you for checking
Quote from munboy :
Capital One has entered the chat
Fair enough. I added YMMV.

Chase always pulls from 2 for me, and Discover card and WF recently did only pulled from 1 for me. I don't have experience with CapOne. I have reasonably high household income and 800 score. So if you have higher risk demographics (e.g. lower score, age, income, etc), that might be more likely to trigger all 3 for you.

Quote from sdoffer2001 :
I was able to apply yesterday from incognito and got 70k bonus miles. I also have this on my account that I referred my friend who was able to get the same bonus.
How you know you will get the bonus?

If they have your SS number as having previously received the SUB, they will likely take your spend requirement and not give you the bonus.

You get such a warning if you don't use incognito mode. IIWY, I'd call to confirm your card is eligible before you spend extra money for a SUB they might not pay.

If you have this card you can use a different CC to pay for Delta flights and have access to Main Cabin 1 and free checked bag as long as this card is added to your SkyMiles account. I usually pay for my flights with Amex Platinum.

Can I add the luggage to an already booked flight?

Yep, I did that last year after getting a similar Amex offer on my flight confirmation page. Just make sure your flight is liked to your Delta Miles account and you can do it all from the app/online.

Are the points amex points or delta points?

Got 90k offer in mail last week. Before that I got a mix of 70k and 80k offers.
