    Folks, where is your sense of humor? Everything after minute 1:30 is a joke. Of course Citi wasn't going to name a card Sexy 🤣🤣. However, we now have 2 legit CSRs.

    So, what does the Citi card have to offer compared to Chase? I missed that part??

      I was just having a bit of fun in the video in that both cards are now CSPs. I however will be breaking them both down in a real comparison video.
      However for starters, the Citi CSP has better travel categories than the Chase CSP for folk like me who enjoy traveling abroad for more than a week at a time. Hotels here on the coast have the best restaurants so when I head out to dinner, it's usually at a hotel. I'm then able to use Citi CSP's 3X when compared to Chase's CSP at 2X.

      Bruh. If they don’t make prestige or something very similar public again, Citi stays tie last place with WF. well. Maybe they’re ahead of USbank. Maybe.

      @@newagain9964 no way! I use 3 Citi Custom Cash cards to get great value. It is my go-to supermarket strategy when in the US. I'm currently traveling/working in Africa so it is on pause. However, my Citi CSP is getting lots of action because all of the multipliers are travel related for long-term travelers or digital nomads. Citi is a winner for me.

    Just got denied by Chase for the Reserve even though I have a mortgage and two credit cards (including the preferred) through them. This wasn’t on my radar and seems like a lower annual alternative in the meantime.

    • @RSquared-travel-rewards
      @RSquared-travel-rewards  หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're not allowed to hold 2 Sapphires at the same time. So it makes sense that you were denied. I'd be surprised if they ran your credit because it should've detected that you were not eligible for the card when it checked your SSN. If you've owned the preferred for over a year, you should be able to do a product change to the Reserve but you wouldn't get the bonus if you got a sapphire bonus within the past 48mos.

    Citi Select Premier would have been the best option. Strata is a good alternative though.
    Just wish they would have told us before automatically product changing you to it…

      I consider it a great refresh. Whenever a card adds travel protections, that's a big deal in my book. I love that it's now a CSP because I love anything which disrupts the thinking around Chase.

      I see just the value. I get tons of value from my 3 custom cash cards then I use the premier as my transfer mechanism. Then once I'm abroad as I am now, the premier is my most valuable card. Yes their customer service is weak but I'll take the benefits all day long
