So for those who don't read every thread, basically there are no major US-banks that will issue chip +PIN cards except for Wells Fargo. And I refuse to pay 3% forex just to have a PIN - I'll take my chances with the no forex Chase chip+sig cards.

Chase does not issue chip+PIN cards - your British Air card is chip + Signature. Glad to hear that it worked.
