i disagree with the above posters who think this isn't a good sign up bonus. this comes with a companion pass for a little over 12 months. so it all depends on how you'll use this.
Wish it was two years. This would be less than one year.
Thirty thousand points for spending $4k is terrible. I got 75k points just two months ago. Anything less than 50k is not worth it and even that is on the low side. Wait if you can.

Edit: The companion pass is worth it if you plan to travel at least twice with a companion. The extra 45k points I got are worth ~$550.

Can I just go to my att account and make a 4k payment to hit the bonus and get the 2x points? We have 11 lines so the bill is fairly large.

Quote from skinnywallet42 :
Looking forward to seeing some confirmation that Companion Pass shows up soon after your billing cycle ends (once you hit the $4K spend). I hit mine a couple weeks ago. Billing cycle just ended on 3/3 and they already applied the Annual Fee of $69 on 3/1. I also just paid off my balance today for good measure. We'll see how long before I see CP.
As of this AM, I have qualified for Companion Pass through 2/28/25. So it was likely once your statement closed, it takes a couple of days. Easy peasy.

Will paying my taxes with this card be a qualified transaction? Has anyone done this?

Any transaction works, there is no restriction as long as you hit the 4K spend limit. If Paypal Bill Pay qualifies for your County, even better. Else, you pay whatever percentage fee. Find a friend to get referred and they may pay your annual fee for you as well.

Good deal. Signed up. Have a few trips I need to take with the family and this will save a few bucks.

Anyone know how soon I can use the companion pass? I understand I have to book a single flight first and then add a second flight separately using the pass.

I've never used companion pass before so bare with my question. If I get this and get the companion pass, is the Feb 2025 the book by date or the travel date? I want to take my son to DC for Spring break in Apr 2025 so was wondering if this would work. Thank you.

Have you been on SWA lately?

I saw 50K after spending $1K in 3 months and a 10% or 25% off coupon use within 1 yr. It's the one with $149 fee.

Please take a screenshot if you do.

Southwest credit cards are terrible now.
Pay twice as much, for less points, and the points are only worth about half the value they were before.
