If have the old IHG credit card ( the one with the $49 annual fee) can I sign up and receive the welcome bonus on the IHG Premier card?

Nope, you are restricted to only 1 IHG consumer (Select, Traveler, or Premier) card.  However, you can get the IHG Business Premier card even if you have an IHG consumer card, which is slightly better (2 extra bonus categories).

Can I cancel the card ( I transferred most of my credit away have like $800 left) and then reapply in the same day?
Will Chase flag my account?

I have the ihg premier.
Seems like free night can go for at least 125, making it worth the 95 af.
Am I missing something?

I have the premier card and I was considering downgrading to the Traveler card for a prorated refund (just missed the 30 days for full). But I see that the traveler card has a SUB of 120k points is it worthwhile to just sign up for a new one and close the old premier one?

The premier has a 175K offer, so I’d suggest closing and reapplying for the premier.

Is there anyway to do this without the closing the IHG ( as in never close a credit card) and just downgrading or doing a product switch from the IHG Select?

[Shmueli]

How soon after I close the business premier will I lose my platinum status?

I just got my annual fee on July 1, and I am staying in 2 IHG hotels in early Aug.
I want to cancel it but I wish I could keep my status for another 1.5 months...

Anyone know how quickly they pull the status after you close?

Any links for higher offers out there for the premier card?

If I sign up for the credit card with the top sign up offer.. Spend the money then cancel or downgrade within 90 days would they waive the annual fee
