Is buying e gift card better in my situation? (trying to signal to chase that I do not MS these and do use them at merchant)
The only physical gc I buy at the store is amazon... Our day to day spend is like 70-80% amazon haha.... so I do spend a nice amount there. Some of the renovation expense will go there as well as they have great pricing on materials as well.
Any other good ideas on how to reduce the risk?
churning is closing and opening cards to take advantage of bonuses.
I wouldn't close other cards if they have a long history, especially if it was one of the longest ones you had.
