What CC to add to Chase Sapphire Preferred
« on: August 20, 2019, 12:09:47 PM »
Hi All,

1.  I received the Chase Sapphire Preferred with 50,000 miles about 2 weeks before the sign-up bonus rose to 60,000.  I called asking for the extra 10,000 but was told they don't give it.  Anything I can do?

2.  I want to maximize miles/benefit to fly to Israel.  What second CC should I apply for considering the airlines that fly between US and Israel?  I have to make a decision within a couple of days.

3.  Should I apply for a third cc as well?

All advise and (reasons) welcome.

Thanks all!

Thanks Yosef.  Pardon my ignorance, what's, SM/HUCA?
I reread the new offer.  Seems first year is now no longer free, so they added 10,000 Miles but are charging for the first year.  I guess I can't have it both ways?

I applied earlier today for the Freedom Unlimited.  I hope that is a good choice.

Welcome to DDF!
SM is sending chase a Secure Message via your online account, and HUCA is a very useful tool: Hang Up Call Again

If you spend 20k on your new Freedom Unlimited, you will get 60k UR points which is not bad.
