Are you asking if you should call them and request an IR reduction?
 
If so, the answer is yes.  A few months ago they were trying to make their customers happy by granting 'wishes'.  The catch was you were to say "I want my Cap1 card to be my number 1 card."  I would think they would be happy to compete, as long as you have some leverage -- and it sounds like you do.
 
Make the call.
