Selling Tradelines / Piggybacking Part II: $1000+/hr, 20-40k/yr. Side Gig

I just added a 2 year old 15k limit card... Was offered $25.00 which seems kinda low but I haven't been able to do anything with it anyways so may as well list it. If good company would take it I believe the payout would be $75 instead.

That payout must be for under two years. Once it's two years it should be at $75 if it's exactly 15k, $125 if it's at 15,001+. If I were you I'd lock it and wait for it to hit 2 years. Going from $25 to $75 (or 125) is a big difference.

Also, just a reminder to everyone to call and bump your limits -- going from $20,000 to $20,001 and making your payout jump from $125 to $175, for example, is a big difference, especially given the amount of work of adding an AU and the risk is the same, and just takes a 5 minute call or online change.

On May 26th I got an email from Discover stating they were going to merge with Capital One.  The old company does not use Capital One anymore and I have not gotten a news letter on this.

Does anyone know how this will effect Discover?

Thanks in advance

It's probably going to take years for them to fully combine.

Hey guys,

I just got a news add for my 25k Chase. I get two every 4 months almost like clockwork.
I have couple cards with them , a biz a checking account .
Today’s add has a citizenship status as Brazil.
I know the good company does their homework but would this be an extra red flag to Chase?
I have $$ on another of theirs 0% balance xfer so I don’t mind taking the extra risk but this seems even more riskier. Thoughts?

I don't know about Chase in particular but I have had at least 2 non-USA citizenship AU's with good company.  No issues.  When I encountered my first one, it made me nervous.  I reached out to the nice lady at the good company and she explained that they did not restrict it to only USA or similar.  I went with her guidance.
