The JPSelect is already extinct (no one can obtain anymore). I guess if you still have it, it probably still works with all it's benefits.

You got the CSP AND the JPSelect? Two different accounts? Does your plastic JPSelect have an EMV?
I only have the JPM Select, and mine is plastic and has a chip. The card itself (not the account) is maybe about 12-18 months old.

I want the Sapphire Preferred (I'm willing to give up primary car insurance in exchange for better point earnings on dining), but I've been waiting for a chip on it. Seriously considering switching now, though, since I'm getting impatient and I'm reasonably confident I can manage in Europe without a chip for a bit.
