    What keeps me thinking about the Delta Reserve card over the Amex Platinum is the companion certificate. I can use that benefit and it will more than pay for itself. On the other hand I don’t fly exclusively with Delta so I am still thinking about the platinum card. My home airport is BOS and my most common destinations are CDG, FCO, LHR, SFO, YVR, and RSW.

    Plus, hotels, gas stations, rental car agencies, and more put a hold on your card that can last for days (even after you paid them), so you may have money in the bank, but transactions could be declines & checks bounced due to those holds.

      90210 pulled up the card as did 10108 and 55401. Depending on which region's AAA site you hit, they might feature the travel card and make you dig for the Daily Advantage. I believe that you can get the card in any region. But it's frustrating that they don't just offer a consistent landing page.

      They certainly have taken a lot of the love out of their loyalty program. I used to be pretty loyal to Delta and Northwest because I could get great value from the miles and consistent upgrades. Nowadays, I'm often waiting at the gate to see if I can get into the coach seats with extra legroom. So, I end up flying on a lot of other airlines.

    How does it compare to the American Express Blue Cash Everyday? Which one do you think is better?

    • @cardsandpoints
      @cardsandpoints 20 днів тому

      Over the Blue Cash Everyday? Depends on your spending patterns. If you can take advantage of the Disney Bundle credit on the BCE, or if you spend in the online shopping category, the BCE is likely better. Just remember that each of the bonus categories' 3% rewards are capped at $6k of spending each calendar year. But strictly on groceries, I like the AAA Daily Advantage better. Especially since I also buy groceries at Costco.

  • @Magister3eros
    @Magister3eros 21 день тому

    A question, which card should I choose as the main one of the points count? I ask since the points with Rewards Plus are worth less since their focus is not cash back.

    • @cardsandpoints
      @cardsandpoints 20 днів тому

      I'm pretty sure that it doesn't matter which account is the "primary" account. You'll get the best redemption option in each card. So you should be able to cash out at 1 cent per point if you combined Double Cash and Rewards+, regardless of how you do it. If you want to be safe, make the Double Cash card the main card.

    • @Magister3eros
      @Magister3eros 20 днів тому

      @cardsandpoints That's my biggest doubt, if Double Cash is the primary, do I still get 10% on the points when redeeming them?

    Thanks for this video! I do not have an account with Bank of America. I use Chase for my checking account, and Capital One for my high yield savings account. Does Bank of America have a good high yield savings account? I love Costco, but I don’t think it would be worth it to move all of my money to Bank of America just for this credit card unless they also have a great high yield savings rate for my idle money. I’m probably going to end up getting the triple A card (3% in store) in combination with the Citi Costco Anywhere Visa (4% gas)

    • @AaronHurd
      @AaronHurd 26 днів тому

      The AAA card is probably a great call. But remember that you can move $10,000 of Roth IRA balances to Merrill and still qualify for preferred rewards with platinum honors. Merrill has a self-directed account option and offers index ETFs. But I definitely agree with you that you shouldn’t move $100,000 of cash over to Bank of America. The interest rates they pay on their deposit accounts are pretty pathetic.

    • @scurvysailor165
      @scurvysailor165 26 днів тому

      @ thanks!! I’m going to look into Merrill. I usually use Fidelity for my investing. Maybe I’ll start putting my new earned money into an account with Merrill. If I can get to just the Platinum rewards, then my rewards at Costco are already better than the combination of cards I had before. I have a Roth 401k at my job. I think that’s similar to a Roth IRA. I’m not sure.

    • @cardsandpoints

      That's a tough combination, especially across airports. If I was mostly Delta out of JFK, I'd seriously consider the Sapphire Reserve and the new Chase Sapphire lounge in Terminal 5. If you're flying every week though, just paying for a Delta Sky Club membership might be your best bet.

      LOL. No way! C&P would rather have $1,500 more in his investment accounts earning him interest and dividends! Spending almost $2,200 between the annual fee on the card and what I'd give up on a 2% cash back card doesn't make sense for me, especially when I could buy lounge access outright for much less. For 2025, I'm switching to the Amex Business Platinum. I earned a 175k point welcome bonus, plus I get unlimited access to two other lounges at my home airport and I'll get a handful of Delta Sky Club visits for when I want to go there instead.

      This is correct. Costco is generally going to code as a warehouse club, which gets 3% with this card. Most target and Walmart stores do not code as grocery stores. Apparently there are some out there that do, but that is really store by store. If you buy groceries mostly at target or Walmart, check out these lists: www.cardsandpoints.com/best-credit-cards-for-target/ www.cardsandpoints.com/best-cards-for-walmart/ Hope that helps!

    I am surprised you did not mention this but one way to to get Delta SkyClub membership is to attain Diamond Medallion status and use multiple Choice Benefits to buy membership. Yet another way to purchase a membership is with SkyMiles, rather than cash. It is essentially a penny/mile: 69,500 miles/individual or 149,500/executive. These would be best for the true million-mile DL road warrior. I traveled with my work for about 25 years and since I am based in ATL, virtually all of my travel was on DL. I reached Medallion status fairly quickly so the Crown Room/Sky Club was just a perk back then. I think the whole lounge thing is a bit overrated these days. Its nice, especially if you like to drink a lot, but if you are having to go through hoops or major expense just to gain access, you are better off just going to an airport bar or restaurant.

  • @soapa4279

    So basically the best way to go to Delta lounges is to go to other ones. lol Joking aside, I wonder how many people does this actually affect?

    • @cardsandpoints
      @cardsandpoints Місяць тому

      Only Delta and Amex know how many Amex cardholders actually go to the club more than 15 times a year. But I think that the majority of people who are impacted by this change will find out later in 2025 when they are either denied lounge access or get multiple surprise $50 charges on their cards, well after they've sunk the cost of the annual fee. I wonder how many cardholders who use the lounge even know that this change is happening. Maybe I hit the point that there are other lounge networks a bit too hard, but really I do think that there are a lot of people paying for Delta lounge access who can get by and pay much less by going with a Venture X and Priority Pass. And the idea of someone spending $75k on a Delta card and getting one SkyMile per dollar just to get unlimited lounge access makes me sad. That's giving up so much value!

Here is the simple way to avoid the $50 investment account fee, open an IRA investment account w/$100,000 of assets, sign up for the smartly rewards on the smartly checking account which is also a tier system. If you have $100,000 balance across your accounts you qualify for "Premium" status and the $50 IRA investment account fee is waived. Because it makes no sense to get this card and have to open other accounts that charge fees.
