lol. What I mean is that Starpoints are more valuable than Chase UR but how much more? If I can 5 Chase per dollar on Amazon and 1 Starpoint per dollar, which is better?

5xUR. Not even a question. (To put things in  perspective, you can currently transfer MR to SPG at a 2:1 ratio. UR is often regarded as more valuable than MR.)
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Why is it that sometimes Amex lets me go over my CL on my SPG Biz and other times they give me a hard time?

Not sure I understand you cheshbon. 2 MR = 1 SPG. And UR is worth more than MR so it would take less than 2 UR to get a SPG point? That would make SPG more valuable. No?

That would make 5 UR points much more valuable than one spg point.

You're elite now! Rank goes by post count. Posts in all threads but just schmooze threads count to determine your rank. It doesn't really mean anything.

There was a link to a list of all banks and what kind of pulls they do. It was posted about 2 weeks ago, will see if I can find it and post it.
