My travel partner and I just did this card also. Using it to pay our Disney trip balance and that will net us at least $400 in points on each card towards the balance.So, I've been thinking that once I'm back under 5/24, I'd re-apply for the CSP, get the sweet sign-up, and have a way to transfer all the UR points I earn with Freedom and Freedom Unlimited to travel partners.
But, newbie that I am to this game, I just discovered the Capital One Venture card last night. That...seems...like a really good card for me. 40,000 mile sign-up bonus, flexible and only $59 annual fee (waived first year). Oh, and 2X miles for every purchase.
And not subject to 5/24, so I shouldn't have to wait as long to get it (though I've got some min spends to knock out before I'd consider it, of course).
Am I missing something?? This card seems kind of superior to CSP. AND it's metal!
I was going to go for the CIP, but that goes into the "grey area" and I just was not comfortable.
There's not a lot of talk about Venture, but its definitely an option!
