I’ve never been so excited to watch a Stan video. I’m here to take notes!!!

Hi Stan, I have a Hilton honors card that I applied last month and I tried to apply for the surpass now and was in pop up jail. Followed what you did and applied from the suggested doctor of credit link. Was approved with the bonus and reward night !! It works ! Stan’s the man!

Stan! This is the definition of serious value - no annual fees, 165,000 combined points, and 2 free nights all while escaping pop up jail. Well done! I'm currently riding the Chase Ink train while getting under 5/24, but would have totally jumped on this otherwise. Great video!

I also got into pop jail last week by using my wife's Hilton Honor's card referral link. Now, just tried your way and I got instant approval!!! Thank you Stan for the tip

Hey Stan. Just wanted to drop by and say thanks for clueing me in on those NLL offers. I got a second Surpass at its current elevated welcome offer because of it.

Thanks Stan! Just canceled my Hilton Business and did everything you mentioned. Had to call in for the manual review and got approved for the surpass with free night award. Thanks for the tip. I’ve been in and out of pop up jail for that last two years 😅

Was in pop up jail on this offer a few weeks ago. Just approved via doctor link instantly. Thanks.

I just did the same thing to beat PUJ on the same card! Thanks for the help, Stan!!

holly smokes ... it worked !! I tried to get this card recently and got pop up jail. After seeing this video I tried it again with the link you provided . Thanks Stan for your tips I really enjoy your channel and have learned so much..

Yes! The same was to me… Pop Jail with the link from a friend… Denied for have 5 card and I did the cancellation of 1 and I received the approval after reconsideration line! Same process

Stan the man!! I can now continue up the Hilton ladder and just grabbed the surpass after dealing with pop up jail for the past couple months. This will allow for us to grab three FNC’s between me and P2. Thank you for the information about the NLL links 👍🏼

Congrats on your approvals on the Hilton Honors cards and on beating Amex pop-up jail. The NAF Hilton card is probably the best card to get,when getting Hilton cards, in case Amex decides to add family language to the terms and conditions regarding the welcome offer. I got my Hilton Honors card in March 2023 and I tried to apply for the Surpass card in July 2023 and I ended up in popup jail. At that point, I decided to garden my Chase 5/24 status so I could go after the Chase Sapphire Preferred. Now that I have the CSP, I am thinking of trying to apply for the Surpass again in July 2024.

I’ve been in pop up jail for 3 months. Your link finally worked for the base Hilton card. My credit limit is only 1k but that doesn’t mean much to me.

Stan, just wanted to let you know, your video helped me beat the Amex PUJ too! I had been trying to get the Aspire with my wife's referral and always in PUJ for several months. I would've never thought to use the Doctor of Credit link for the Surpass, which I don't mind getting for now and then upgrading a year later. I did just that and got the sign up bonus! Thank you very much and I'm now a subscriber and a big fan!

Stan's the best! I was also able to bypass pop up jail too through this method!

Worked for me. Thank you so much. You’re my hero!

Congrats! Although you didnt get that 2nd referral its still a win. And that link is going to be clutch for some ppl!

Stan the man. This is the content we need right here been stuck in pop up jail for months. This worked. More like Stan the credit GOAT!!

180k Hilton Points + 2 FNC's (including the referrals) for 2 $0 Annual Fee really cannot be beat haha. Like you mentioned, Hilton making it so easy to transfer points between accounts is key as well! PUJ is so frustrating haha- bummer that you couldn't use your wife's referral link because of it, but glad you were able to work around PUJ and still get approved (even after some extra work with the Customer Service Rep haha). Great video Stan!

Stan, you are the FU**ING GOAT. I’ve been in pop up jail for a year. I’ve tried applying for the Hilton cards 6 times over the last 2 months. I guess it’s good, that I was in jail because I wouldn’t of gotten the FNC bonus. But anyways, I wouldn’t of known about that DOC link. I just got approved. Thanks dawg💯💯

Thank you stan! I used the doctor of credit link and got approved.

Thanks just got this card because of u..used the doc link... got aspire and this...

Wow now ima subscribe I just got approved with the welcome offer for the card even thru the damn pop up jail thanks man wow

THANK YOU!! This helped me beat pop up jail instantly!

Thank you for the video! I just applied for the Surpass (2nd time having it, upgraded original one to Aspire in Feb after having it for a year since I was stuck in PUJ and got an extra free night as a upgrade bonus) and was just approved after being in PUJ for more than a year excluding business cards.

Dude I’ve been in pop up jail forever. Just because I have too many cards in general. Thank you for sharing this! I’m going to try it out. Would like another video or two on this

I broke free from Pop-up jail using the referral link! Hilton surpass and honors in the same week!

This is an absolute slam dunk...congrats Stan!

Canceled the biz on Sunday todays Weds, used the DoC link to apply, denied due to too many cards (lol); called recon and they put it in manual review . No pop up jail at least!

Great work Stan! Congrats to you and the Mrs! Great walkthrough of the process

Found myself in PUJ for the first time trying to get this offer on the no AF card. DoC link worked like a charm! Now to decide if I’m gonna give up another 5/24 spot for the Surpass….

Thank you for the tip!! I had already applied for the CSP for the 75k earlier this week when i found out i was in PUJ. But ill definitely think about trying this before the offer ends in july!!

This is awesome Stan! My wife & I have both been in pop-up jail for some time. I won't be going for this card as I'm at 4/24 and am targeting 1 or 2 Ink cards, but my wife will almost certainly go for it using the approach that you took. Appreciate you for sharing your experience, and congrats on those incredible bonuses!

Hey Stan if I’m looking to get both the basic Hilton honors cards and the surpass how do you think I should go about it? Should I apply for both within 5 minutes of each other or wait 1 week between applications. I’m really confused. Great video by the way! Thanks!

Was in popup jail for the Hilton Aspire up until April of this year. For datapoints, I grabbed the no annual fee Hilton Honors and Hilton Surpass cards on back to back months last year in June and July. Called a representative after being in popup jail last November and all she did was apply for me and read me the popup jail message (great help I know....). Finally got out of popup jail using a link to apply for the Aspire card that was posted on the doctor of credit site that had no lifetime language in the terms. The sub is complete, points have hit and the FNC was issued.

This was clutch showing us how it’s done. Thanks Stan!!

Stan with the Hilton cards! This was great being able to see this process and was super insightful. I need to do more research on NLL cause that seems crazy being able to repeat SUBs! And I’m glad you got out of PUJ, those FNCs are worth it!

Congrats on breaking out of pop-up jail Stan, this will be useful for a lot of people

Great info like always Stan!

Awesome tip! Thanks for the info + video!

Super interesting that you can get MR points thru referral for opening a Hilton card!

Thanks Stan because of the doctor of credit link. I made it out of pop up jail. I didn’t get approved for the card like I was expecting because I have a couple new accounts lately with other issuers. I’ll try again in November anyways.

Always appreciate your take on these issues.

Nice work! That’s so great to get 2 of these welcome offers for $0 annual fee

The combination of brilliant strategy, tenacity, and resourcefulness demonstrated here is awesome Stan! But man, a 31k CL for the wife was🔥 Congrats on this win brother🥳👋🏾👍🏾

The Hilton Honors is the only Amex I have, and for some reason it really feels like it’s one of my highest tier cards.

This was just an amazing video! I learned so much and I can’t thank you enough for that Papi! You are the man! Thank you !

Congrats Stan! What properties are you considering for your FNCs?

Damnnn I’m here early for this one too!! Beast Stan at it again!

I have this card, too! I got it when the bonus was 100,000 pts, but no free nights.

Stan how do you get these high limits Jesus Christ 🤣🤣🤣. One of my favorite parts of your channel is you revealing credit limits.

It worked, thanks Stan!!

Enjoy the Hilton cards congrats on the approvals!

Great video Stan , Is there a link to go around being in pop up jail to get the platinum card ?

It feels illegal to be here this early. I always look forward to your videos man!

For my P2 I tried both applying for Hilton card with referral link and without referral, no go. I tried different Hilton cards also. But she can get any other card, except of Hilton.

6:54. Business cards also. My P2 has no personal Amex cards, and she is getting approved for all other Amex cards, except Hilton.

Nice video, Stan! I love my Amex

Hey stan that was a great 1-2 punch right there! Question: I have been gardening for chase. Currently 8/24 but wont be 4/24 until april 2025. Got my trifecta but would like another ink card. Do you think its worth postponing chase to snag a Hilton card? The Surpass is on my list of eventual cards to get. But i could easily go for that honors to get the free cert & later pc or apply for the surpas. What you think?

PSA: It can be very difficult to get ahold of a live customer service rep that will actually push your application through reconsideration. On my first attempt (called the app status phone number and followed the prompts) I was actually told there is NO reconsideration process and they said after 30 days I can apply again, or apply for a different card. They even checked with their supervisor and confirmed. Called the number back again, skipped the 'application status' workflow and just went with 'main menu' and said 'representative.' The automated system kept trying to get me to input the last four digits of the card I was calling about but I just kept hitting the # key until it finally connected me with someone. THAT person was finally able to help. Verified that I had actually canceled one of my cards and then put it through to recon. Now I'm waiting patiently for the result!

I got this card with the same DOC link last year with the 80k points. Player 2 may as well this year. Great deal for sure

Excellent info!

Authorized users do not add to 5/24 count. If at all there is a denial because of that you can talk to Recon and mention those were Auth users and they resolve the approval issue. (has happened to me/P2 in the past)

How do you actually get out of Pop Up Jail? I got the honors card a few days ago and my plan was to grab the surpass card in like 10 days then grab the aspire card around December but now that I am in Pop up Jail, not sure that plan will work and I am annoyed with amex lol. I put spend on my business card and had no personal cards.

So jealous of ur inquiry stats Stan!!!!! Wish I had some chill. LoL

Mannn that sucks you couldn't get both referrals; at least you got MR pts so that kind of makes up for it, haha

As an upcoming freshmen in college I’ve been piggybacking off my parents Using a discover-it card. Now that I turned 18 I considered getting the Amex gold card with all the hype surrounding it. I realized that the travel perks are nice but I would only be traveling maybe 1-2 times a year. And with limited income the AF just seems unrealistic. I like the whole Membership rewards program compared to only getting Cashback with Discover but I want to be able to have more options. I want to keep piggybacking off my parents’ great credit but also have a card of my own. As a full time college student maybe working part-time what cards would you suggest?

Hello Stan, If I get a Chase Ink Business Preferred today, could I also apply for Hilton Surpass today?

So in other words if you get hit with pop up jail you can’t use referrals….your wife didn’t get a referral bonus from your application?

What is your roadmap strategy for these cards

good info stan...

Congrats! Does that mean it’s always better to use the doctor of credit website to apply since it has no lifetime language? That sounds too OP.

Congratulations Stan! We did the same back in May for 2 HH cards.

Hey Stan, its Josh from Ahipoke. Just saying what’s up haha

I tried your link for the Hilton honors card, and unfortunately, I was offered the card but without the welcome offer. Any advice? I already have the Hilton surpass card that I got 3 months ago

Did you have any problems with your Marriott cards? I just applied for the Amex business Marriott and have had the Chase/ Ritz two years and two days and got a pop up that I am not eligible for a bonus. Planning to try again in a few weeks

Hello Stan! Why not run this strategy with the Surpass card? Extra points for a minor credit card fee, then maybe downgrade after first year?

Nice video on explaining strategy to getting Hilton Honors cards via your wife and her referral link 🎉

Im more surprised u still referral links. Amex took them from me 😅

I got question does Hilton Amex point expire?

Is it 5 cards for personal and business together?

So I have the America express gold card . Could I refer my girl for the Hilton and get the referral point?

Why didn’t you apply for HH personal credit card?

Stan playing chess w/ AMEX..😂😂

her first Amex card ? come on Stan tell her to subscribe ur channel😂

First!

🏆Hilton For The Stay👑 That was a great strategy, problem solving and success story! You the man Stan!🫵 Congratulations mi hermano!💪

Right now as we speak that no annual fee amex hilton has a welcome offer of 80,000 hilton honor points 😅
