  8. There's a lot that goes into the "decisions" to automatically close an account so it's very likely your personal account history with them and/or other card usage warrants the dormant Everyday account staying open. Amex monitors cardholder behavior very closely, and they do a good job of targeting offers, incentives, credit line increases, etc...to encourage someone to use a card they may otherwise not be using. Those getting cards closed in 24-36 months of non-usage are almost always due to increased risk, or fraud.
  9. As said by others, it's a newer technology led by the industry leader Plaid...but certainly other companies like Yodlee (now Equifax) are getting involved and it's rapidly growing in popularity. But like you, most people are still VERY skeptical of it which is completely understandable. At this point, the use-cases are primarily for a faster and more secure manner of sending/receiving money between institutions or businesses compared to the older ACH technology (routing #s and account #s), as well as aiding lenders when it comes to the requirement to verify deposits/income in the process of a loan application...usually mortgages. Credit card companies use the technology to make it easier for cardholders to connect bank accounts and make payments. Venmo or Paypal now use it to quickly link accounts for sending/receiving payments, as opposed to the old way of entering a checking account info...waiting on the two small deposits to occur, then verifying, etc...which could take days. When getting a mortgage, lenders can use it to instantly verify recent deposits made to your account, which can speed up the loan approval and closing process (think Rocket Mortgage). The list of benefits and uses goes on... There's a lot more to this and I'm happy to answer questions.
  10. Very common for card issuers to close dormant accounts (usually at a minimum of 24-36 months of non-activity and assuming your credit is fine), but as stated the policies vary amongst card issuers. BoA may let you stay dormant for 5+ years, while others like Amex or Barclays may close an account after only 24 months.
  11. I really wanna attack this thing, ya know? Sink my teeth into it.
  12. “Is the building on fire?” “No, but it’s gonna need a paint job and a shitload of screen doors.”

  19. I'm a God fearing man. Can we get a muffed punt and a Bama recovery for a touchdown?
  20. Only reason Florida went for that was because I had a shit ton of bets on Bama at -6.5. Cunts.
  21. Let's do this. I'm in.
