I had planned to transfer my UR to their travel partners, close the account, and wait patiently for the two years to pass and apply for another CSR. I could handle 2 years. 4 years it too long for me though. Now they (Chase) have me either paying the annual fee or canceling the CSR card.

I hope they (Chase) create another card that earns UR and has a great signup bonus.
You could also do something crazy, like you know, find a card that you get value out of, and you know actually keep it...

Crazy, I know...
