the points have been pretty "useless" though because earning is quite slow as i ONLY use it for hotel stays of 4 nights (or more). especially now you can't earn bonuses on other TYP cards when you have one currently open.
is there a better paying method/card i should be looking into?
I still have it and it is my most valuable card. I pay $350 - $250 on air travel = $100 a year and I use the 4th night free at least 5 times a year netting me about $1500 in savings. Other than the 4th night free, the travel insurance is really good and the price rewind.
