RUMOR: Chase CSR to increase to $550

Shadowfactor — Mon, 18 Nov 2019 03:56:18 GMT

Forgive me guys because I won't be able to explain alot of where this rumor came from because of the forum rules and other active plays.

So there's been some leaked links that DOC reported about and other tricks that are currently being exploited. Anyway someone found some links that reference a new $550 AF for CSR.

Just know that the information seems very credible to me, and I believe Chase is either thinking about it or will be releasing it soon. There's no other reason to have the T&C PDF's drawn up with a higher AF

Are they adding anything to make up for the increase? Or is that still unknown?

I wonder this as well if they are planning to do so. While CSR is a great card for many people, a lot of us have other cards where an increase of $100 on CSR might have us doing math as to whether it is really worth keeping. I personally only have mine because of the additional bonus on URs redeemed through the travel portal over CSP, and for the 3x earning on restaurants where I can't use Altitude Reserve.

The CSP approval on DOC credit with fixed apr is scary... No way in heck would i touch that with a 10 foot pole. I am hoping the United/Marriott/SW was legit and these other leaked links are something else.. Something strange is going on.. Man I wouldnt want to be one of those people using leaked links on DOC for the CSP....

I am not seeing anything in the link that would lead me to believe it was going up. Where are you seeing that?

I'm gonna agree with you 150% and I'm not even with Chase. I just looked and looked at the comments. I think they are playing with fire. Hopefully we're wrong. But to be fair, DOC did warn them @CreditCuriosity 🤷🏽‍♀️

I can't tell you that part as explaining it would be breaking about every single forum rule. You need to make the connection yourself.

Forum rules apply to PMs as well. Please don't ask someone to violate the rules.

Flight and restaurant earn 5x ?

I will do my math hard when changes come, because I have a prejudice against raising AFs. If Chase is that desparate to send me to Amex, I will give that another deep thought.

I know with the launch of the CSR, Chase spent a lot on all those signup bonuses. However, that was 3 years ago, and they really have not done anything to update the product since then, whereas competitors have. So just increasing the AF and not adding any benefits doesn't seem like a smart move. Chase has to remember they are not the only player out there. Of course, it could be that as consumers have gotten more savvy with maximizing rewards and juggling cards, the CSR is just not profitable.

We will see what they do, but just raising the AF and not adding anything seems like a bad move.

Was that your wish list or something actually rumored that I didn't catch while it was up? I'm thinking of going for Citi Prestige in the spring to use almost solely as a restaurant card (with the 25% portal bonus from having Premier or bonuses to Virgin or AF/KLM, plus the 10% rebate from having Rewards+ it seems like a solid fit for me) since I can count on minimum 6.875% back, but if CSR were going to go to 5x for those categories not only would Prestige be less useful to me, but that would put CSR as almost a daily driver.

5x on food and flights would work for the increased AF for me.. That would be 7.5 points per dollar if used through portal.. I didn't look through all that stuff, but deffinetly could make that work with a $100 increase in af... Man those UR's would be rolling in if this change is legit?

That was my guess. I have no source for any rumor 😭.

I would say it's a nice guess and pat myself on the back, you heared here first!
