In addition, many rates overseas automatically provide CDW and that invalidates Diners coverage, even if the CDW cannot be declined. I used to prefer the ex-Schwab VISA, but that is gone. Is there any credit card out there that: (1) offers non-deductible coverage outside of the US; (2) does not charge a foreign fee; (3) offers a reward or rebate system; (4) doesn’t charge an annual fee. I know that’s a lot to ask from a credit card, but the ex-Schwab VISA did offer all of those features while it was working.
Chase has offered a card (JP Morgan Select Visa Signature) for the past few months that is primary, has no forex fees, and is also a chip/sign card, easy to use in foreign systems.
