Are the World and World Elite two distinct products from Barclaycards' perspective? I'm guessing no...
A data point on this:

I was told by Customer Service that they are different products (both via the phone and via secure message), applying for the card failed however because I supposedly already have it (here, conveniently considered the same product via reconsideration hotline; they tried but were unable to approve it because of it).

Anybody knows if they offer a bonus to upgrade the card (I received an offer from them to just upgrade the card, but w/o mentioning any bonus)? My annual fee is due soon, which I'd rather not pay (cancel), but I'm also still holding on to a lot of LH miles that I'd rather not lose.

Ideas are appreciated! :-)
