Ouch! This! Should have independently signed up for the CSP to get the 40k UR points. Also the 1st year's AF is waived.

Not to put salt on a wound, but is the AF waived if you do a PC?

I didn't know you can PC the Freedom, Thats pretty cool DigitalArk! At least you didn't lose your Freedom history by closing it.

How long have you had your Freedom open?

Well it seems like you didn't lose out on anything then, cause you wouldn't have been eligible for the 40k UR and AF waived.

Anyone think that Slate is PC'able to CSP?

That could be a way around the 5/24 rule and get to keep Freedom AND get CSP! I'd give up Slate for that. I'd hate to miss the bonus, but unless the 5/24 goes away I don't see getting it another way.

Well, what's the rush? With the 5/24 rule, won't you just have to wait for older "new" cards to age off to be at 4/24? Then the bonus is available from CSP. Meanwhile, you continue to build Freedom points, right? So by waiting, gardening cards to older than 24 months, you get paid to wait by the sign up bonus.

Just weighing options. DH and I are each at 5 since 3/15 so it'll be quite a wait. That being said we've just gotten started with MRs so I don't need to start with URs right now anyway. Just thinkin'.

Yes, there are too many nice sign up bonuses to keep from apping all over the place

Shame you didn't apply for the CSP separately.

They go so well together, and its not like the Freedom has an AF or anything...
