First post but just got this in my inbox, thought other would want to know about it:
Dear My Best Buy® member,
Thank you for being a part of My Best Buy. We would like to inform you of the updated Terms and Conditions, including changes to the dispute resolution terms, coming to the My Best Buy program on May 3, 2022 (View updated My Best Buy program Terms here).
In an effort to simplify the program, we will be consolidating the Elite Plus, Elite and My Best Buy tiers into a single tier. On May 3, 2022, My Best Buy members in the Elite and Elite Plus tier will be moved into the standard My Best Buy program*.
We are also updating how points are displayed within the program. My Best Buy members will earn 1% back in rewards on qualifying purchases (0.5 points for every $1 spent) at Best Buy® and Participating Properties.
As a My Best Buy Credit Cardmember, you will earn 5% back* in rewards on qualifying net purchases (2.5 points for every $1 spent) at Best Buy and Participating Properties made with your Card when selecting standard credit. In addition, you will have the exclusive benefit of banking* your points until you're ready to issue a My Best Buy reward certificate. If your preferences are currently set to points-banking, we'll keep the preferences saved for you if your Card account remains open.
Thank you for being a My Best Buy Cardmember. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at 1‑888‑BEST BUY (1‑888‑237‑8289).

With this, I'll just direct my $ elsewhere. They also remodeled the BB near me and cut WAY back on the # of SKUs offered and the actual retail floor area seems like it's been reduced considerably in favor of a larger stock room. So the fun of browsing a B&M store is diminished and it's now more reminiscent of the old catalog showrooms (Service Merchandise etc).
may be better for me them pushing me away
I'm fine with 30 days but if my 45 day return policy becomes 15, I'm jumping ship for the devil (aka Amazon).

Honestly, not a bad deal for those making 1-2 major appliance purchases in the year. Came out on top buying a fridge, washer, dryer, and TV altogether. Bundle discounts + free installs + free mounting + expedited delivery + longer return window + 'GSP' included in the price now.
Balances out.
Not the same, for sure, but at least I won't have to spend the $3.5k/yr to get the benefits now.
Exactly my thoughts....done with the credit card
I used to go through a lot of extra headache to drive my purchases through Best Buy, but at the least, this will save me some time and heartburn.
Very little reason to shop at best buy now. Their reps often intentionally disconnect chats when you try to get them to price match anyway, now I wont even bother checking the best buy price.
And now what, 14 day return policy across the board? Get f—d.
