Chase Sapphire Visa

[aryeh1]

1.6 is not bad at all, but after 09/30 I have a hunch they may go up in value.
YMMV.

but im worried they might snatch them away if we wait till 9/30?

[aryeh1]

Wat happens after 9/30. . . That's when this offer is expiring?_

amex transfer to co is expiring then

That's when AMEX points stop transferring to CO and when Sapphire points will be the sole way of transferring points tosomeone's CO account.

I'd be shocked if they took away the 100k.  YMMV of course though.

This was what I wrote and what they responded with. Do you think Chase will still honor their word? This was submitted on Monday by the way.

Good Morning,

I just signed up for the Sapphire Preferred with a bonus
offer of 50,000 Ultimate Rewards points if I spend $3,000
in three months. A friend of mine just got approved for an
offer of 100,000 points if he just spent $500 in the first
three months. I m a bit disappointed that I signed up
under the 50,000 offer when there is a 100,000 offer
available as well. Would it be possible to be upgraded to
the 100,000 offer? I greatly appreciate your
consideration. Thank you.

They promised, i think youre good

FYI, It seems chase is no longer giving out the extra 50k points.   No one on any of the forums I read have been successful in the past few days.

[U-no-me!]

The current rate is $800 for 50k

Do u know the worth of MR points?

Also which airlines miles are the most valuable? i.e. if i do a transfer from amex or chase and in terms of earning for flying?

Thanks.

I do not buy miles. I was just noting the highest advertised rate that I've seen for saphire points.

[aryeh1]

is this a visa or mc?

[smurf]

the sapphire preferred is a visa sig while the sapphire regular is a mcw

[Deal Guy]

Wat happens after 9/30. . . That's when this offer is expiring?_

Amex membership rewards points will no longer transfer to CO

[springles]

Anyone know if Sapphire preferred points ever have bonuses for transferring like MR points or SPG?
Is there any benefit to waiting to transfer if I know where I want to transfer to?

Unbelievable, but after NINE messages sent to
chase regarding them promising me the 50000
points but then not crediting them, they finally
came through. 4 days passed after my last
email, so I figured they were done even talking
to me about it after so many denials. But today
received a message that said they are happy to
give me the points now and they were showing
in my account. I had given up hope. Happy
ending.

So does that mean that co miles will be worth more as well? Should I hold off on selling my co miles? Tganx

[aryeh1]

My father has a saphire from 2 yrs ago, he only got $100 for opening it. Would the 50k or this work?
