If you're planning to PC, I would do it sooner rather than later, JMO.
I am going to give chase till end of the month i think . I will think about it this week just wondering if i should be safe, should i trasnfer my 85kish UR points to ink plus before doing it.
Do you have to transfer the points to ink? Isn't it all the same pool of points internally? I need to link the accounts online still though.
I don't know when i made my ink plus account i had to make seperate login, so its not on same account. Its not an big deal

I wouldn't necessaritly rely on getting the CSP bonus again, as rules change. Still, you can see when the time comes whether others have been successful.
What do you mean about the CSP bonus?
The 7%?
Or getting another signup bonus while having a CS open?
SIgn up bonus in the future, with or without the CS. They could move to a strict (or at least enforce) the once per card rule. But since I don't understand why the bonus is so big anyway, maybe they will continue to give every 2 years...
I'll have to see how that works out two years from now.
I don't know where i fall on the value of UR points in general anymore. No skyteam airlines + ual deval is pretty meh to me. I think BA for domestic or hyatt or singapore are only valid uses for them right now. It looks like at end of this year i am going to be cutting out some cards, probably 4 or 5 , Us airways, EDP, BCE, CSP, and ink plus could be potentially on chopping block.
Wait, so your thinking about giving up UR points all together? My understanding is that Chase is suggesting that Korean air could comeback and at this point its far from certain that they are gone for good.
I wouldn't trust chase with rumors, They didn't even give any warning when they removed korean air in the first place. I am not too happy with chase when they did that. Who knows if they will be coming back or not. If korean air isn't back when my af comes up for ink plus i will probably cancel the card . Thats in October so they have an pretty broad window to re-add korean air.

Curious as to why cut the EDP? I would just change it to the Everyday card and keep it sd at least so this you have a free card that can make or hold MR points
I am still pretty annoyed at amex trying to cheat me out of amazon prime , so that is why i would want to cut them out completely. I have calmed down since last night, keeping ED is an option but i rather not give amex my business right now.

Still not that big of a deal imo . Yeah it sucks you didn't get it but they still offer shop runner for free which is similar and that's for the life of owning the card or until they decide to stop doing it

They don't care. Threats won't mean anything to them. It's a silly matter at this point to get so irate over, mong. And to Amex 5000 that you're liable for is nothing. They won't even bat an eye. I understand you're ill about it, but it doesn't mean they're a bad company... just means you need to fight a little harder for the sign up bonus that you signed up for to begin with. Once they realize that, you'll get it.. but until then just have to convince them. And spend on your card however you like.. If you want to do the 5k spend now go ahead, but it doesn't matter either way to them really. It's capped... unlike the Blue Cash.

I would pay off the debt. I would just buy 5000 dollars worth of VGC to get the 3x MR and then close out the card after i transfer to my MR to BA. I will see how it all plays out. I know they don't care for me as an customer, i am an small potato.
