I quite liked the old design. I thought it was the best looking of the three (CSR/Plat/Prestige). I don't know why they had to go and change it.

- $250 Credit (can be used against grocery and some other categories, temp pandemic benefit)
- $100 GlobalEntry Credit (depending on if/when you got your GE, might be worth using on renewal)
- 2x4NF (subjective value, I suspect better to put spend on a hotel card for elite qualifying nights in programme of choice)
- 2x$5 DoorDash Rebate
After the 4NF devals, I'm strongly considering dropping my Prestige (or maybe get a Citi Premier and downgrade my Prestige to a DoubleCash to keep the credit line open). I used to put all my hotel spend on this for the 4NF perk since it saved thousands annually this way, but I've pretty much sockdrawered this card in favor of my Amex/Chase cards.
If you're just after the SUB, you're probably better off churning the Premier (
60k @ $95 AF) vs. the Prestige (
50k @ $245 Effective AF). Assuming you use the Global Entry credit, is paying $50 more worth earning 10,000 fewer points?
