Very good point. The return on the CSR can still be higher for travel and dining category spend, but it does have to be balanced against each individual’s spend volume, since the CSR has a net $150 annual fee (assuming that one values Priority Pass but also has it from another card, as many of us here do) vs a net $(5) fee on the BofA Premium card.
