If I downgrade reserve card to freedom unlimited....
« on: January 25, 2018, 12:16:26 PM »
anyone know what happens If I downgrade sapphire reserve card to freedom unlimited

1) does anything happen to UR points on that account or are they left as is ?
2) do you lose ability to transfer UR points to airlines ?

In regards to #2, does having a canceled sapphire preferred / ink on your profile change anything ?

Thanks

Just make sure to have 1 card left that’s transferable to Airlines.

You don't lose your UR as long as you have any chase card open.
If you wanna transfer to an airline while you don't have a transferable card but your spouse does, just transfer from your UR account to your spouse's UR account and from there to airline.

Shared account address is the usual requirement.

It should be very simple online just follow the instructions answering the last name and card number.
