United has cancelled that route and rebooked me with a 35 minute connection in Chicago. It's now a 2 PM departure and a 6 PM arrival. These times don't work for me. I can fly southwest nonstop to a nearby city and drive in less time.

I am certain that I can call United and get them to refund the ticket based on the schedule change. But I assume it will refund to Chase.

Will Chase credit me back my points if they do so? Is there a process by which I can request my points back after the airline refunds the ticket?

Thanks all.
Not sure that cancelling thru UA will get UR returned. I'd call UR (Connexions) first and see what they have to say.
