Nope. It's sitting on my desk now.
It's interesting that they didn't even blink when I called to cancel. They politely xfer'd the credit line over to another Chase card, too, without me bringing it up.
The card seems much less interesting when you dig into the nitty-gritty. It's sort of like an Amex Platinum without:
- airline fee credit
- global entry refund
- access to AA/DL lounges (US via the UC membership)
It has the EMV chip and a swanky metal look and feel. I hoped to replace Amex Platinum, but the combination of some of the limitations and the fact that the experience for AUs wasn't as good as Amex made it an easy decision.
Perhaps they'll get EMV into the Sapphire Preferred someday.
