So will the balances combine?
No, you'll have 2 separate rewards accounts.

Can we have this thread renamed?
Shouldn't the thread for discussing Amex BC (Legacy) have a better name?
Each time this thread gets bumped I get scared for a second...

I don't think Dan will be apologizing anytime soon. Some people prefer vacations over houses.

Well when you vacation it's like you get a different house every few months :P

Need to test each one.

+1 but more importantly you only earn 2% (with bc), 3% (with bcp), or 5% (with old bc) on gasoline from gas stations. Being categorized as a gas station is required, but not enough.

Nitpickers aside, some of you may be interested to know that there are some reports of BC card cancellations with no prior warning. Your AMEX accounts can still be open and you keep all the rest of your cards; it's not an FR.

Eta: if there's a way to expedite reward dollars, it makes sense to play it safe and cash out ASAP.
