Then I asked for a follow up with the banker. Meeting was cancelled and wealth manager showed up. Asked about Reserve card and there was a lot of “we think we can get it for you”. Once it was clear that we did not want a managed account he stopped responding but it did convert over to JPM Private Client after 30 days of holding 750k (received an email). It’s unclear if there are any additional benefits and thus far have not been able to “upgrade” to JPM checking. They are supposed to review estate plans and trust accounts but after 3 emails and a month I have not received a reply after sending ours for review. I am hopeful it’s better than CPC but clearly a program that is starting out with some growing pains.
What does it mean that you upgraded to JPMPC but not were able to upgrade to JPM Checking...? Were you able to keep your self-managed brokerage account?
I agree that they need to figure their things out before rolling out the program.
