Credit Card Points before death
« on: March 03, 2018, 09:13:19 PM »

Hi,

Can anyone provide tips on what to do with accrued miles/rewards for cardholder who will no longer use them, but is still conscious.

Is it better to transfer to another member or to cash in?
Is there a portal that shows the options? The main two credit cards referred to are: Chase Ink and Chase Sapphire, Chase Mileage Plus (United Airlines), Barclay AA Advantage (American Airlines) and Chase (British Airlines.)  Do they transfer to beneficiaries or should we cash in?

I'm assuming it's better to reach out now than later....

Any tips?
Thanks so much!

Read the T&C but most likely you lose them. Some might let you transfer as a good will gesture.

Good call. Terrible wording. Fixed.

Thanks, everyone, for the advice.
