    thanks. there is some skepticism over the veracity of this as nobody has been able to locate the original claim from kicker, which is the source for most of the reports on this, including the one from nbcsports. 

    Yeah, the NBC story reported the Sun story, which in typical fashion because the Sun sucks, has no sources.

    True, the Arrival (they dropped the plus in April) does have chip/pin. That’s about all it’s got going for it though, besides a $150 annual fee. Not worth it just for chip+pin, which isn’t a big deal in the grand scheme of things. 

    Yeah, I wouldn’t suggest it right now. They devalued the bonus points you get when redeeming and upped the fee. I signed up several years ago for the 80k bonus. I still use it some, but am considering dropping it. I did just pay for an Airbnb in New Orleans with it and redeemed points to cover it. 

    Right now, our main cards are CSR, Amex Gold, and the Barclays. I use each one based on bonus categories. Barclays is used when there are no bonus categories as it is 2x. My fee is still $89, not sure if that is going to change. Also, my card still shows as Arrival Plus in my account. Edit: I do see that the Premier is a new card and does not affect arrival plus customers. But they aren’t allowing signups for the plus.

    Just because England won doesn’t change what Derka said, at least in the last two games England played. They struggled for chances against both Belgium and Croatia. I’m not really sure what the debate is.

    Are you not familiar with the derka-shaggy relationship? Derka posts something. People  contradict it hoping to get derka to go off. Sometimes derka goes off. It’s a whole deal.
