Our Verdict
New changes to the card came into effect today (7/11/24). Don’t think it’s really worth burning a 5/24 slot on this card and offer but others might disagree.
Won’t let me apply for it because I applied for the Boundless card last year
Do points earned from this cars expire regardless of other points-maintaining activities ?
Read the last point under card details.
Can you product change from Chase Marriott Bonvoy Bold to Chase Ritz carlton after a year?
I have seen DPs yes and no. I have also seen a data point where someone PC up from Bold to Bountiful then a few days later could PC to Ritz.
I just read docs additional commentary but I just applied for the Amex business 5 nights before it expired yesterday, requires 8K spend in 6 months which is doable but with $125 fee.
Meh, if using a 5/24 spot for a year I rather wait for the 5 50k cert offer on the $100 boundless THEN upgrade to the Ritz 2nd year
This offer is ok for just a core card long term keeper, but I’m a greedy sob, I want the max points/certs when signing up any new card
@WilliamCharles If you are going for Ritz card, what do you recommend?
