I have an unused Chase Sapphire, called to ask if their intro offer would apply if I upgraded and got a wishy washy "no" on that.

I'd appreciate any ideas. Rewards can be airlines, hotels, cash, as long as they're easy to use or transfer (not US aiways). Thanks!





I think the current best offer is the Chase Sapphire Preferred card. Dont remember the details but think someone had said you could apply for the Sapp. Prefer card and still get the sign on bonus as Chase considers this as a different card than the regular Sapp. card. Could give it a try. Or the Chase United Explorer card as I think they are now forex free.
+1 the UA explorer is an awesome card. Especially now that it has no Forex fees. Add in the added 10,000 miles if u spend $25,000
