Good deal but unfortunately I got SP bonus a couple years ago and as such won't qualify for it.

Wondering why Chase isn't doing a better deal on Sapphire reserve. Personally, between 50% more value for travel and lounge access, I think it is better card

I'm thinking many have applied from the 90k bonus last time so not much action this time LOL...
yes, the best value of using UR points is transfer to Airline partners for best redemption if flying premium cabins or transfer to hotel brand for hotel staying, There are a few urgent travel trip that I use portal to book because Partner airline did not have seat available. occasionally I also redeem for Apple product when they have 1.5x bonus redemption, i.e Iphone 14 promax 1TB only use 100k UR points vs retail of $1500

You need to value flying in business/FC for points to HAVE that increased value. Meaning, if you're not a big traveler, or even if you do travel but B/FC isn't worth the fee, then the whole discussion around how points are "worth" much more than 1 cpp is basically moot.

Blah blah blah...
You're still not getting it so let me try to explain as clearly as possible. Not everyone values a UR point like you do. I'm reading through the other comments here and everyone gets it except you. There are a lot of smart people out there working their CCs but not everyone's keeping their Sapphire cards. You seem to assume there's an absolute value of a UR point. There isn't. If a UR point is absolutely worth 7c as in your little brain, why would anyone carry any another card? Or you think other people are stupid. I used the travel portal as the best cash conversion option because transfers are not equivalent due to availability being dependent on when the flight is and when you book the flight, two very critical factors that limit travel if those are not what you're looking for. Now if you continue to value your points at 7c, you do you. But dismissing the cash value of UR points just shows your inability to do any kind of analytical thinking.

Quote from BGRT :
Good job collecting the points... but someone needs to mention that keeping points unused is essentially giving Chase a 0% interest loan on the cash value. 40M points is 400k converted to cash, and with MM paying 5%, you're losing 20k worth of interest annually.

Everyone values luxury differently, but for me, the marginal benefit of a business class flight for example isn't 3x that of an economy flight. Similarly when you visit a city, you can spend 3x as much on a hotel but you're typically not going to a destination for the hotel. These are the two things that you can spend UR points on. Local experiences requires cash and if I splurge that's what I'd splurge on.
Plus, who needs $600k worth of flights and hotels?? I mean, even if they dropped balance to $50k that's still more than enough for almost anyone.

How can I verify if I had the card in the last 48 months? I do not remember when the last time I had applied.

Was anyone able to get the annual fee waived by going in-branch?

I called Chase today and asked them to check if I qualified for a new SUB. Also asked them about product change to Freedom Unlimited.

Quote from theplayer :
I see this argument a lot, and I understand the reasoning....but I get great "value" flying business to Europe for 68k avios pts round trip. Why? because at my stage in life I wouldn't travel to Europe if not in business class, and I'm not paying cash. So how do you put value on those points? For me, the value is unmeasurable.
Emphasis mine. Here we're talking cents per point. If you're finding business class for $1200 and it costs 68,000 points and there's zero, your value is 1.8c/point. It's just math. Could you attempt to claim that it's worth 8c/point by finding a flight that is $5400 R/T? That's what Knightshade is claiming. But if you're wouldn't have paid $5400 cash for that ticket, you're not actually getting that "value" - you're accepting similar time/destination restrictions of a $1200 ticket - they come up from time to time and from specific airports.

When I buy a bag of Doritos from the store because its on sale for $2 instead of $7, I haven't saved $5 because I'll never spent $7 f*cking dollars on a bag of chips. When they go on sale, I buy them. If they're not on sale, I eat something else. So if I get a coupon for a "free" bag of chips I value it at $2.
