Disney Visa and Other Credit Referrals

@drvillarejos

when you sign up for a United account you can see the cost for dollars and points

Have you tried using that browser extension that shows you the cost in miles in Google Flights?

ETA: Points Path

[drvillarejos]

I haven’t yet. But once we finalize a destination hopefully in a month or 2) I will start narrowing down the flights more.

@drvillarejos

just wasn’t sure if United is a “budget” airline like that.

United is not a budget carrier. I haven’t flown them much, but they are comparable to Delta or American.

[drvillarejos]

Thank you! We will have 2 younger boys with us. This isn’t a terribly long flight either. But I don’t want to make the wrong decision for everyone. It seems as I am the planner in the family for vacations, lol. My sister has no time, my brother choose Iceland (not going to happen), DS has no money so he gets little say- he also doesn’t care much. Moms too cheap- we will be tent camping at the airport trailer park if left up to her. So it seems I’m in charge (not complaining, lol)

Was updating a few of my links in the spreadsheet - another reminder to people that many links have expired in the sheet now.

You can easily see if yours was expired or came up “Offer Not Available” last time it was tested as the box in column A has been checked, making the row gray. They are sorted at the bottom of the sheet.

@JJT

For anyone who follows this thread that has links in the spreadsheet - Quite a few links there are expired now.

If you haven’t updated them in the last 90 days or less and/or the bank has flipped the offer one or more times since you posted the link, chances are you need to refresh the referral to get a new link and then update in the sheet.

[JJT]

Looks like some people’s referral links need refreshing again!

[drvillarejos]

Updated my Chase one

[PrincipalTinker]

I updated my links too

The $400 bonus is back on the Disney Visa Premier!

[ParkRanger]

What if I’m holding a regular (non-Premier) Disney Visa, which I previously downgraded from a Premier. Am I eligible for the bonus if I upgrade to the Premier?

I’m guessing not.

[NervousRex]

When was your last premier bonus?

[NervousRex]

And I think you have to apply for the premier not upgrade

[NervousRex]

And the referral links aren’t showing the bonus…so I’m going to wait a few days to see if that pops up. If not, I might message Chase after I apply

[JJT]

Link Refresh time again if you haven’t updated yours in the Google sheet lately!

If the checkbox for an expired link is checked for your referral be sure to UNcheck it when you update your link! Also update the edit date so it makes it easier to see the last time it was changed.

Disney Visa in particular has gone up:
Premier = $400 statement credit
Standard = $200 credit

Annual fee not waived on Premier, but net worth it to get that one then downgrade after you’ve had the card for a year.

Of course, if you are playing the larger game with points credit cards, these are very likely NOT worth a Chase 5/24 slot.

But, if you just want to use some Disney math and attribute the cash back to your trip, is an easy spend to get up to $800 statement credits plus referral bonuses when playing in 2-player mode by referring your spouse/partner/friend back and forth.

I just went to look at my referral links in the sheet and was getting errors - so I tried updating them and Chase keeps saying “URL is incorrect” for even the NEW referral links.

So, if you are trying to use one today, could be Chase’s site is having a mini meltdown.
It often does.

[wegoshopgirl]

Thanks I was wondering about this! I guess I’ll try again tomorrow or later this week

[JJT]

Looks like they’re working again now!

[JJT]

Looks like Chase Ink, Sapphire, and SW card referral links in the Google Sheet may need to be refreshed if you posted them in October or earlier!

Related: Anyone playing the Rakuten game, the $40 referral offer is back: If someone signs up using your referral you and the other person both get $40.

If you have your Rakuten set to earn Amex Membership Rewards instead of cash, you’ll get 4,000 MR worth about $64 using base values.

(This is not my referral link, just a link to the page to generate your own link. I put my referral in the Google Sheet.):

Earn Cash Back at stores you 💖

I believe the new account needs to make a qualifying purchase through Rakuten within 90 days.

Happy New Year!

Just want to point out that almost everyone’s links in the referral spreadsheet have long expired.

Since there were more than 40 expired rows of data, I created a separate “Expired Links” tab now and moved them all there since I didn’t want to just delete them outright on anyone.

You can either enter your current referrals in a new row in the Current Links tab, or edit the one in the Expired tab and copy it back into the current. (If you do that, don’t forget to un-check the box in the “Expired or Not Available Last Time Link Checked” column.)

[drvillarejos]

Keeping us on our toes! I’ll add some this evening. I need to make a plan on which cards to work on next. Hope plenty of liners update their links. I will definitely check the spreadsheet when I’m ready to apply for DH and myself.
