Got the replacement for my RitzCarlton card due to misspelled first name.

 

How do I destroy the metal card? It is the same number as the replacement!  Don't think my shredder will be able to handle.  Any ideas? TIA!


Does it have the same CC# and CVV? 

 

If you don't want to use it as a spare, call Chase for an envelope to send it back and they'll shred it for you.

The Ritz Carlton Rewards card is full metal, not sandwiched core like the sapphire cards. I wouldn't try the garden shears.

 

Instead, do it the easy way: drop by your local Chase branch and have them put it in their secure disposal bin.

Only if you were using a BB gun, a .22 out of a rifle could easily go right through one of these cards. If my friend still has a card I will test the theory.

Chase will send you an envelope that will easily house 2 metal cards and you might even get away with putting 4 in there. I know I've returned 3 this way.

Ah good point! I completely forgot about that but all retail banks have special 'trash' bins where it's contents get sent out and destroyed in a careful mannar.

When I had to dispose of my CSP two times all I did was walk into my local Chase branch and they had a shredder there that could do it .
