Hmm and I'm tired about all the people complaining about consumer entitlement and rewards abuse. Seriously what business is of yours what goes on between a lender and their customer? Am I borrowing your money? You act like Chase doesn't know what's going on. Like they are stupid or something. Its a massive bank. If there is rewards abuse they shutdown accounts. Its that simple. All I see is you taking joy in the idea that people can't get additional cards. All those people are entitled consumers and abusing rewards? I've never closed any of my chase cards. I never broke any of the chase rules. Chase has never closed my accounts., but because I have more than a certain number of accounts in the past two years I can't get one of their cards. But hey I'm glad your happy.
They dont owe you anything, if you dont like their game, take your ball and go home.
I never said they owe many anything. I just don't see what business it is of yours.
I dont know, its a public forum and I can offer my perspective as I see fit.
True and I can offer my perspective on your perspective.

Says someone with lots of reward cards! Remember, to the "normal" person, someone with that many cards must either be in debt or doing something very fishy.
I think everyone should be allowed 1 (capped) rewards card per lifetime, and when they reach the cap for the month, quarter, year, they have to wait for the next period. HAving several is simply being greedy and abusing rewards.
Thats like, your opinion, man.
Um no it's not really. More pointing out that there is a spectrum, and what you consider acceptable others may consider abuse, and vice-versa. <1960s mode>Pretty heavy, man....</1960s>
The greedy ones are the CCC that came up with this stuff to get more customers. Chase just doesn't like this game anymore and they made a change. Now everyone doesn't like it, then move your business to somewhere else. I give a lot of credit to churners, it's a grind, "man", lol.
Personal Cards: Amex Plat | Amex Delta Res | CSR | Citi AA Exec Business Cards: Ink+ | Amex BGR

Churners are a small group. The people who work to maximize rewards don't have a hard time applying for the cards. The grind is when they go to redeem them and trying to get value out of their redemptions. These companies make it difficult to redeem awards and it takes a lot of patience on that end. The only people who I think can legitimately be upset over credit card bonuses are the road warriors who earn status and miles the hard way by actually flying or staying places. Then again they are likely the first ones to sign up for these cards. Heh.

I travel a lot for business and pleasure and I'm not upset in the least. It's not only churners but also people that are stockpiling credit that plays into this. These forums seem like an arms race at times, pretty entertaining at times too.

Tell me about it. I'm in a hotel every other night. Brutal. Bad for your health and it definitely takes a toll. I haven't gone to work at the same time in year's. I sleep today, work tonight, sleep tonight, work today. Never ending. What a grind being on call 24/7. But it pays the bills.
For the people with a lot of stays for work you have to wonder if in their free time they really want to spend it in another hotel room!
