generally speaking, if someone asks for miles compensation and is fine with either MR or UR, which is the better option to part with? asking for someone who doesn't currently have a CSR to enable 1.5 utilization of UR.
"To part with" is a very weighted question . Depends on what the points are there for that you feel that you are "parting"

I apologize if this is self evident question.  Which bank's MC and VISA cards have CDW insurance that will work in Israel.  How can I check before applying for card?    Two I am considering are Capital One Venture Rewards and Barclaycard Arrival Plus World Elite.  Thank you!!

ok so to make it simpler, which points currency is more  valuable, ur or mr? I'm just stockpiling with no particular redemption in mind.

Same market price now.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

I'm upgrading on Sprint now. Which credit card would be the best to use for a $300 payment. Are there any AMEX or Chase or Citi offers or something?
It's worth too much.

Keep in mind that you'll lose SMs and linked external accounts and auto transfers when you merge.

From the business account that's getting merged into the personal right?

You can ask them to keep both profiles open.
