Was approved for this card @80K signup bonus a couple weeks ago. Some notes:
This is a great card for anyone who travels or plans to soon travel!
Call your local branch and see if they offer 80K signup + first year fee waived. If you do apply in branch, allot at least 30 minutes for this .
If you have a Peloton membership, note that the Preferred will credit you $60 total off fees, but I think only through June, so act quick!
I didn't get my card after a week, despite a 1-2 day delivery promise. I called in, and they said, oh, whoops, we forgot to ship it! (and they then indeed shipped it 2nd day air via UPS).
You'll get the most value from the 80K points BY FAR by transferring them strategically to airline/hotel partners (most often: United and Hyatt). Do some reading across blogs to learn more.
I know when I applied for this card, I did it in the branch and got a $125 grocery credit incentive. Basically every time I shopped at a grocery store I received a credit back until the $125 credit was maxed…. It may be worth it to call a banker & ask if they have that promo as it was only for in branch applications, not online & worth it to a trip to the bank, if you ask me!
I don't think there's been a better offer on the reserve in many years?
Outside of the SUB the CS > CSP used to be a no brainer, but with the higher AF on the CSR, and the improved benefits/earn on CSP it's a tougher choice now.
Today it's $155 more (removing the travel credit from the price difference) for CSR...
SUPER generously if we count the GE/TSA credit as $20 a year that drops it to $135/yr more for CSR.
For the $135 you get:
Priority Pass (still the good one that includes restaurants unlike Amex)
Marginally better travel insurance coverage
"free" roadside assitance (up to 4 calls a year, max $50 per call)
You do get significantly better purchase protection (10k per claim instead of $500- but then I'm buying most expensive stuff with a Citi card for 2 years of extra warranty anyway)
1.5x for your points in the travel portal vs 1.25 for CSP- but this is rarely a worthwhile use of points for most folks compare to transfers.
10x points (vs 5x on CSP) for cash spend in the travel portal or Chase Dining portals- but those again aren't frequently the ideal way to book for most folks anyway.
So as I say, when this was $35-55/yr it was easy... ONE 2 person use of priority pass at an airport restaurant more than covered this- if you get anything out of any other benefit you're golden.
At $135 it's much more marginal for many.

Hi all, questions: when you refer someone to get the card and they sign up and approve, how long does it take for you to get the referal bonus ? does the new user neet to meet 4k spending in 3 month in order for the referal person to get bonus? thanks
If your wife's account shows a preapproval offer, it means her creditworthiness meets the card's requirements. She will still get approved through your referral assumed her creditworthiness remains unchanged.

My wife's account has the 80k preapproved offer. Now there is two options:
1. go to store and apply, AF will be waived.
2. i can refer my wife (i just got the card less than two weeks ago), get 15k bonus though AF will not be waived.
Will it be granted to get approved through option 2? Anyone has the experience? Thanks.

thanks for your reply. i will ask her to apply tomorrow.
I just accepted the 100K offer on my app, already approved (not preapproved). I just had to go and accept it.
Before signing up for the 80k, if you have an account with Chase, make sure to check the app prior to accepting this. You may get this offer too.
Doordash pass is also present. There's also 50% off the first 2 orders that I believe I'll miss out as it expires tomorrow and Doordash requires the card number (it's only letting me add it to Apple Pay, not giving me the numbers).
If I cancel the card before 1 year completes, do I need to pay the annual fee ?
Someone else chime in, but my understanding is you can cancel within a month of when the annual fee gets charged and it will be fully refunded (with anything after a month on a pro-rated basis).
If I cancel the card before 1 year completes, do I need to pay the annual fee ?
No, you will not have to pay the $95 annual fee if canceled before the one year.
Speaking of which, I used this promotion last May 2021. I forgot to cancel my card so I was billed the $95 AF. I just called them right now to cancel my card and the $95 AF was credit back to my account. I hope this info help some of you guys that forget things. 😅

My AF for CSP kicks in on June 1st. I was planning to downgrade to Chase Freedom Unlimited rather than cancel the card. I already have a regular Chase Freedom Card.
Since the AF is refundable within the first month after it is charged, is there any benefit to keep it open a for a few days after the AF is charged? Unlike the reserved card, the preferred doesn't have any travel credit benefit that resets annually that could be used up when before cancelling/downgrading.

Preferred does have $50 in hotel travel credit annually. And the annual 10% bonus on earned points. Although I'm not sure if either would kick in on the same billing cycle that the annual fee is charged.

I had to call the 800 and spoke to an agent to have the $95 credit back to my account. At the same time, I canceled my Sapphire credit card.
