<prompt> Human: So I recently applied to get an Amazon credit card and got the benefit of 50 upon approval, are there other companies that do things like this without actually using the card or spending money?  <response>: I realize the desire for free stuff, but Id definitely recommend against taking out extra credit cards - especially if you plan to cancel it fairly quickly. It will ruin your credit rating by lowering your average length of service - not to mention the damage that all the credit checks will do.
