Sadly, due to severe reduction in value because of 2k miles monthly cap and .5 miles per dollar spent, and, the real killer, disqualification of quarterly tax payments, I finally closed this account today. Was a great relationship while it lasted. Not worth keeping $25,000 at ST just to get 1 point/dollar since only qualifying expenses are now primarily utilities and health insurance, which can be paid with united or Delta Amex card for miles.

So sad ...
