Palladium

[Dustink]

I am looking for an alternative to the AMEX Plat. 

It looks like the Palladium has primary car rental coverage. Is that correct? That might make it worth the AF to me.

For awhile the Palladium didn't require a private banker to apply. I notice it is a little harder to find info on the card now. I called the local private banker down the road and he just wants me to come into the office. Seems like you need a private banker to get the card again?

Anyone have more info on this card? I am usually all for points, but I am liking benefits now too.

I will not reach the 100k spend to get the bonus points.

Crashem i believe he has one

It looks like the select offers the same primary coverage.

But no lounge access....

IIRC, this would require a CPC relationship along with ~$250K... unless somehow your private banker is able to circumvent those requirements by endorsing it to the u/w group.

Hmm...

That won't happen. Not that I have $250k liquid, but even if I did I don't think I'd keep it with a high fee broker at Chase.

That, or whether they could possibly be able to offer you the JPM Select.  Your PB would likely know the best options based on your overall goals/needs.

Yeah, I'll check into it.

The backdoor was closed a few months ago. An endorsement by a CPC Banker and $100-$250k with Chase. Here's a thread where it was recently discussed

Of course, YMMV.
