The data breach was so egregious that 10 years of monitoring should have been included and THEN settlements.

Great monthly recap Sebby! Please keep them coming. 🙂

[ChiTownTim]

Monthly please.. and thank you for your videos.. tons of help!!!!

[szhang]

Thanks for all the great info, Sebby! Monthly would be great

Hi Sebby! Can you do a video on the 5 best travel cards without an annual fee? Love your content. Keep up the great work!

[Michael-okpe]

I book one way tickets from home airport without travel protection cards. Have to run the numbers but often two one way tickets are the same as a round trip ticket.

I like the idea of a monthly recap. You could also add to the end of the monthly recap or make a separate video about offers ending in the coming month, predictions, etc.

And by 150 I mean $1.50. Oh, the comedy and the tragedy! LOL.

Yeah, I was eligible for a $500 settlement in a MasterCard class action lawsuit. Only took 15 years to get the final settlement and cash my $20 check.

I noticed you did the Jazz hands....LMAO

I am doing a free one week trial of Experian and honestly I like it much better than all other free credit monitoring because you can see the most changes on a day to day basis, as well as different reports that lenders use (i.e. auto vs credit vs mortgage). I wish I took the free credit monitoring vs the 0.23 cents check. Not surprised Citi is cutting back benefits, they are almost bottom of the list of customer satisfaction. That's why I've been leery of getting their double cash card.

some data points: $50 gift card - not reimbursed; $99 seat upgrade - not reimbursed; $25 baggage fee - not reimbursed all on Delta...all about 2 weeks 4 weeks after posting and called AmEx they then issued a credit for everything, but I had to ask, they wouldn't do it automatically

[jmr]

I think a quarterly news recap is fine. I do like the monthly amex/chase offer and "what's in my wallet" videos.

[Tannanson]

Sebby - is there not any merit to the insurance component of the credit monitoring option on the Equifax settlement?

[DustinTownsend]

Equifax fine is a joke considering the amount of affected people. I think the FTC should be sued for the low fine.

[jswift]

Thanks for keeping us updated, Sebby. Do you have anywhere that lists Discovery rules for applying? I got denied for having applied or opened too many accounts in the last 24 months. But I don't know what their rules are to judge when I should try again.

[cjmhall]

Can you please do a video on HSBC Premier now that you can qualify with just a $5k monthly direct deposit? They are currently offering a $750 sign-on bonus

Transfer Thankyou points to transfer partner. Pay award tax with Chase. Citi then transferred all the liability insurance to Chase.. Smart.

[DattKiddFromSTLouis]

What I really need is a way to condense these gifts cards 😅

[thenumberonebeaner]

Monthly updates would be great. Similarly to the Amex offers!
