Pretty much every Chase card is moving on 11/01 to their new benefit provider.
Whether it covers Israel is still unknown but the SWMC won't have any advantage over the Visa.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Can this card still be downgraded to a Freedom MasterCard?
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.

I just sent Chase an SM to downgrade to a Freedom card and was denied.

Did Chase change their policy?

I am asking here because on the phone they told me it wasn't an option, but I could downgrade to a Sapphire Non-Preferred.

Phew...


Thank you for contacting Chase.

I do apologize for the previous reply, as the option to
change to a Master card is currently not available.

mastercard change denied by 1 agent in florida, and 2 agents in Springfield Missouri.
Orlando told me over next year all sapphire preferred, freedom and slate cards, will be pro-actively swapped to Visa. change was started last week. so now it is even more YMMV.

please post success story and method if swapped from today on..

one agent explained - he selects the "product change" option on his system. in my case my freedom is less then 1 year so it doesn't offer him to change it, but in the case of my sapphire, it offers, him a bunch of cards, it offers the SP visa non signature, (mine is sig) reg sapphire, slate and freedom. he says it used to have mastercard but no longer does.

im pondering whether all their systems are updated at once, and whether some computers are still not updated with this new update.
