My annual fee is due this month, should I downgrade to Freedom or reg. Sapphire? Is there any benefit on the Sapphire?
I try my best :-\

There are many benefits to the Sapphire.  Read all about it on Dansdeals.com Click on the 3rd tab where it says "credit cards" and you will see it is well worth the annual renewal fee.

Or close it and open a new one in a month :)

My question is, if there's any benefit to the reg. Sapphire. + If one has an Ink I think the only think he'd be missing is the 2-3X on dining, is it worth $95?

if i have the MC what argument could i tell tham for geting the visa? why should i need both?
so my question is like this. I currently have the saphire MC and on DDF there is a lot of reports of people having both so last week i applied for the visa version and i called recon and i HUCA 6 times spoke to 6 diffrent reps 2 superviser but the all said no go there is no such a thing as having both the MC and the Visa the only thing i could do is close the MC and open the Visa so now my Q is what am i doing rong? what sould i tell them to convince tham to give me both? and i close the MC iam gonne loose out on the %7 div. and it a nice sum. also if i do close and open the visa will i still be eligabile for the %7 since i applied before they stopped the %7 ? thanks very much iam waiting to hear any advice
what did you tell tham? i tried HUCA 5-6 times they all read the notes and all say the same it is impossible to have both. Dis they let you keep the MC? i even tried by closing another card and shifting over the credit but it didnt help.

One of the forum rules is: No cross posting

My suggestion is you should give it a day and then try to HUCA again and explain them that you're buying a lot in a store that doesn't except MC but you do want to keep your current account because of the history bla bla bla and of course you should use the method from iherman and say all your arguments before they place you on hold.

My Sapphire World MasterCard has started to change over to a Visa account. I called a rep and she explained that my card is still considered a Mastercard until early September when it will completely switch over to Visa. She went on to explain that they are starting early to give notice to all customers.

With that in mind: My question is, does anyone think i can still apply for the Visa and use my Mastercard as leverage to churn the Sapphire and get the Visa approved?

So I just realized that my Sapphire replacement card is a Visa not a MasterCard (which was great in Israel for car rentals), but as it turns out its all good since with all the new changes, Chase Sapphire Preferred card now includes primary rental car coverage including Israel

so no harm done there!

I got a letter today from chase that the master cards will be changed over to visa and I should receive my new card by Nov 20.
Also that the new "visa" account number will start showing up in your online profile come Oct.
 
So now may be a good time to apply for a visa card before they change it for you.

Was this with you saying you would close the MC for the Visa?
