The People vs Wells Fargo

Welcome to a new episode of Stack Your Points! 

This week we have the full show for you with news, viewer questions and 4 fun topics. 

Matt

- Is there such a thing as a “Best Starter ecosystem?” Or should you not worry about how you start in the game? (MC)

 

Lani * “Why do you have it?” Cards. Card which you do not often use. Card (s) that do not fit within your Main/Plan A strategy. Card(s) that have reward currencies which you would go out of your way to use? * Example: I have Amex Platty. I do not use it to purchase everyday things (unless its an Amex offer or point stack). Does not transfer to United/IHG. Only use points to transfer out or a good deal within Amex travel portal. So why do I have it? (yes, I have an answer why.)

 

Tariq * Credit card “strategies” that’ll get you on a bank’s bad side. Do people not know/understand the risk, or do they simply not care until they’re hit with the consequences?

 

RJ * The hosts of Stack Your Points are all sitting at Café Henri in Queens, New York on November 14th in the morning (allowing you to pick the time so you can catch an early flight if you need). We all have our bags with us.  * Using our loyalty programs and the credit cards we have access to, how would each of us get from New York City to Seattle Washington, each traveling solo? * Where would we stay in Seattle if we wanted to stay with a brand we had loyalty with for a five night stay?  * How much did we spend in points and cash? The flight must have at least one layover.
