For some of us the "Flex" PQD are pretty much worthless. I can't give them to friends in need and I can't even turn them into RDM. As a 1mm flyer who is a lifetime member of the club I get the card for $100/year. As the FPQM can only be used to get to Platinum, when I hit 2mm (relatively soon) they will be completely worthless. I've been using my Chase Sapphire Reserve since it was introduced and should likely drop this card -- can anyone thing f a reason I shouldn't -- particularly after I hit 2mm? Maybe I'm missing something.
