My question is 1) what's the best use for my points? 2) is it possible I can transfer my current points to full MR points after I upgrade to Plat/Gold+ so I can get the benefits of transferring to airlines? 3) how can I maximize the free MR points if I upgrade to a Plat/Gold+, do I apply online or do I call and ask to be upgraded?
I had the Zync card and upgraded to the Premier Reward Gold and they transferred my Zync points to my PRG with no problem/no fees. I had thirty days from when I cancelled my card to add them to a new card. I had to cancel to be eligible for a signup bonus on the PRG.
