Chase now has pop up jail with unspecific eligibility requirements per DOC.

Thanks, that’s exactly what is happening to me.

Will need to sit down and figure out what our next SUB is (property tax time). I’m finishing up an Amex Green (I was able to get the SUB offer even though I had a 3 yr old Plat, then canceled my Plat after no retention offers. Which is funny because I get a retention offer a few years ago when I was planning to keep it anyway. This year I did plan to cancel w/o a retention offer as I found it tougher to justify the AF, but didn’t get one despite legit and specific discussion with reps a few times.)

We’ve (me) actually slowed our SUBs a bit, but boy I could use some URs (we’ve each got 2 Inks, I have CSP, DH now with 2 Freedoms after PCing his CSP).

New Atmos has launched the Alaska and Hawaii program, and it actually looks good. It seems easier to achieve One World status, and there are many bonuses as well. Too bad Alaska only flies a few flights to Orlando, but the benefits might be worth it over AA in my opinion.

Thinking of purchasing a few of these, but concerned about the ability to actually use them. Anyone care to share how they use the virtual Visa gift cards?

I stopped buying virtual visa cards this year. I used to be able to pay my property taxes & utilities with them but the companies updated their billing systems and now they no longer accept them. I found this out only after purchasing several which was frustrating. Not all online stores accept them either. I think I ended up using mine online at Walmart.

Has anyone had success (or failure like me) in PCing a CSP to Freedom, waiting 4+ days and still getting "you aren't eligible for the SUB" message?

DH CSP is from Fall 2019 and we PC'd it to a Freedom last Monday. I tried on Friday and today and am getting the "aren't eligible message". Reddit seems to say that you only get 1 Sapphire SUB now? Annoying as I canceled my Amex Plat with this plan in mind. We are almost out of URs after years of accumulation and then years of using them! I mostly used for Hyatt, which has gotten us some v nice hotels in Europe the last 2 years (along with some smaller redemptions).

Anyone have any recent experience with a 2nd Sapphire?

I'm seeing these reports all over the place right now

Yep, my property taxes only allow one payment method unless I go in person (which I'm not doing), but it's an easy way to get a sub nonetheless.

Following up. Since today is the last day for the elevated SUB for CSR, I decided to try again. I did NOT get PUJ today (as I did yesterday). I did get a message that the application was in review, but that means I got past the "you aren't eligible for the SUB".

So to recap. PC'd to a Freedom LAST Monday, PUJ on Friday, PUJ yesterday, "under review" message today.

Saw a DP that you can hold both business cards (the old version and this new one).
