Anyone have success with Amex Plat retention offers? Offering me points for a $4k spend.

I’d have preferred points, but was given $400 as my retention offer this year.

You can usually ask for points instead

Did you get annual fee waived too? Or just bonus points or statement credit?

Just a statement credit after $4k spend.

How does this work? Do you call and say “I’m considering cancelling, what can you do to keep me?” or what?

Short answer is yes. Go to Youtube and search “Retention offer AMEX”. You’ll see how to go about getting one. You may or may not get lucky.

I just heard recently that if you refinance and your house appraises at 20% more than the amount owed, you can remove PMI. Is this correct?

House was purchased for $460k no money down (VA loan), refinanced at $450k to lower payments $400/month, now have $430k left on the loan... would it have to appraise for $516k?

If a tax payer loses his job , govt. is not even paying even few thousands for unemployment allowance, who have been paying lacs to government as tax. What’s your thoughts on Indian taxation?
