I'm telling you guys, S++ would be a very good tier indeed!
Frankly they could have already offered the benefit to S/S+ with likely minimal incremental impact. There are probably some S/S+ corporate clients who don't have the CC and could have hypothetically felt slighted by being excluded. But that would have muddled the marketing message: The VIP line was all about driving new client acquisitions for Chase, not for AGR to reward loyalty. It's unfortunate, but loyalty programs heavily depend on banks for revenue through their huge point purchases.
In short, Chase was in the engineer's seat here, not AGR.
