If you are eligible for the signup bonus. (i.e. 48 months from the preferred SUB).

I have the card for a few years already. Does Chase tell me beforehand if I am eligible for the bonus?

If you are approved you will get the SUB.
Keep in mind that you can not get the Reserve while you have the Preferred. You will need to downgrade the Preferred to a Freedom.
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.

Does it make sense to wait for travel to return before I sell miles? Prices fell a decent amount compared to pre covid prices.

Everyone’s selling for the right price… what rates have you been hearing?
