Thank you for the link. However, I don't find that discussion "extensive." More like "sporadic." Most of that thread involves issues dealing with how Chase is delaying the fee hike a year by giving people a $100 credit in 2021.

If mods would like to consolidate, I understand. But I'd like to see a really thorough discussion along the lines of what's going on in the Amex forum regarding the Platinum fee hike.

I'm unclear about the recommendation to switch to a Freedom card. The Freedom cards I can see all are cash-back cards, not UR cards. What am I missing?
