US Airways MasterCard – The Fine Print

Barclay US Airways Dividend Miles Premier World MasterCard.

After your first purchase you will receive 40,000 bonus miles. In addition card members receive one complementary airport lounge pass, preferred check-in and boarding, a $99 companion pass for one flight, and a 5,000 mile discount off of each award booking from your US Airways Dividend Miles account when flying on US Airways. Here is the link to apply for this credit card offer.

When my husband received his card, I read the fine print and found the eligibility clause below.  It requires one purchase every 6 months to keep your account in good standing. I prefer to be safe rather than sorry, so we plan to use this card to make one purchase at least every six months.

Eligibility:  To participate in the Program, your Account must remain in good standing which means your Account must remain open with active charging privileges, you must maintain your creditworthiness, you must pay your Annual Fee, and you must use your Account for at least one transaction every six (6) months that is not later rescinded or returned. Good standing also means you are not in default under the Cardmember Agreement.  Failure to pay the Annual Fee or to maintain the account in good standing may result in Account closure and forfeiture of these benefits.
