I'm probably going to keep Serve because I think Amex/Target will probably do away with the CC loads or reduce CC load limits or maybe go to an Amex only load or something. Eventually, they will. May be in 1 month, 6 months, one year, two years but it will happen. My recently acquired US Bank Amex Flexperks will earn 18,000 flexpoints with the online CC loads a year. 20K flexpoints = $400 statement credit. Only reason that I am not dumping Serve.

Meanwhile, I'll continue to use the Redcard in family member's name that I also have in addition to Serve.
It takes a year to earn that $400. 1 year is a long time from now.
It takes 4 months for a 2% card to do the RB load to earn that $400. Had you switched in January, you would have already earned that $400.
