I downgraded my sapphire visa to non preffered about a month ago, will I get the signup bonus (40k), if I sign up for a visa? BTW, how do you signup for a MC sapphire?

you can either sign up for the mastercard saphire via DD's link - credit card thread. (didn't work for me - it came up as a visa)
or call up and get them to convert your sapphire preffered visa to mastercard. (worked for me via the number on the back of the sapphire card.)

Is this absolutely necessary, or is closing my SP Visa and waiting 60 days enough to get the bonus again?

If I don't have a sapphire card Yet is it better to get the visa first and then wait 30 days and then change it to MC would I get the bonus that way?
If yes that means that I will have I apply for two cards?

Why don't you get one, wait until the bonus posts and then apply for the other and have them close the first and transfer the credit line to the new one?

It's that easy ?

Yup, I just did exactly that.  Be prepared to tell recon why you need to swap the Visa for a MC.

I also just got my Sapphire MC. I called Chase 2 times (HUCA) and the 2nd person did quickly. I told them that I am traveling to a country that the benefite for MC are important for me. Make sure you apply 1st then they will close the Visa for you.

I have a SP Visa and applied for the MC through the MC link. The letter I got back stated that "you already have this type of credit with us"

What may have happened is that I applied for another VISA and not an MC (I dont remember what the actual link said..I used Dans link of course) .

Is it too late to have the VISA switched NOW to an MC or did I have to do that before?

Also if I downgrade my present SP VISA to a non preferred MC will that get rid of my $95 annual that just came up?

They always send that letter, that doesn't mean you didn't apply for the MC.  You just need to call and have them approve the MC by closing the Visa as you want CDW in Israel.
