Lots to bring you this Tuesday!
News, Tips & Tricks
The increased sign up bonus of 40,000 Points and no annual fee in the first year for the TD First Class Visa Infinite Card
has been extended to October 30th from an originally scheduled end date
of August 31st. Now as we mentioned here a short while ago, the card just got devalued on August 16th
in regards to the redemptions for the ‘any travel’ feature. That being
said the card does retain the same value (1.5% return) if you redeem
those points via Expedia for TD. Which means, if you know you can take
advantage of redeeming via this method this card can provide you with
$200 in free travel credit or I guess even with Expedia, $160 in any
sort of travel. This extension has been reflected on our Credit Card comparison charts.
Aeroplan is soon going to require a Call Centre PIN when you
call in for redemptions and/or help with your account. I forsee us
getting some emails about forgotten PINS as we get emails from people
who have lost Aeroplan cards and need new ones, people looking for their
Aeroplan balance, etc. The simple answer is go to aeroplan.com as the
site has answers to most if not all Aeroplan related questions. See our reader question below for an example!
Reader Question:
Just today we received and email from a reader requesting a new card:
I would like a new card as mine is not in good shape and I want to
travel in two weeks. How can this happen? My number is XXX XXX XXX.
Thank you for this.
And our answer:
Based on the number you provided for a new card I’m guessing it’s
Aeroplan that you are looking for a new card for. You can order a new
card from Aeroplan via this page:https://www3.aeroplan.com/helpcenter/self-serve?icid=SUB_M_SelfServeTools_EN
