Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
I just realized last night, that DW and I are not getting nearly as many credit card offers as we used to get a few years ago when working.
I've noticed we are getting what I consider the lower tier ones like:
Capital One Venture - bonus of $200 with some spending.
Discover - bonus $100 with some spending.
Literally that is about all we get now.
We are NOT getting any Airline cards, which is annoying as we are planning a flight to Europe in Fall and would like the free baggage, etc.
Do Credit Card companies not offer them to retired folks, or old folks as much ?
I have an excellent credit score (~800) and about 6 cards that get used, some more than others, even an Amex card I pay the ~75/yr fee.
I have never opted out of offers, I just shred them if I'm not interested.
It made me wonder, how can I trigger getting more CC offers, or is this a trend everyone notices ?
