Just want to throw this around here - in my experience it's ok to have a (partial) refund on your minimum required spend.
I.e. spend 3k - refund 2k and wait 3 months for the check
This has always given me spend bonuses. It has been unintentional so far and it's a risky move but it works

I will be pre-emptively downgrading my PRG card to a blue card though. I don't use it at all these days except for Small Business Saturdays.

That's a good question. Since I won't activate the card, don't know if that will count as me "having it". Either way, it's OK - I'm not in a big rush to get the Platinum card unless another huge bonus offer comes out. If it does, I'll most likely have my wife apply as she does not have any PRG cards.

Does the blue version allow you to keep your Reward points? Or is it Membership Reward "express"

I downgraded my PRG to their Zync product in May when the 175 hit for the PRG. Then I realized that I couldn't transfer the points to miles becauase it was "MR express" and not MR... So I opened another PRG 6 month later and got the first year free...

for the $200 credit with buying gift cards - are you doing that in person at the airport, or online?

So all the curious minds who got on the deal knowingly/unknowingly with prior charge card like me, I'll be able to update the thread in a day or two. I just spent 3K since I got the card. Bought two 500$ Vanilla cards from CVS in the last hour.
I will post back..

EDIT: There is no way that I know of to get to any particular rep. It's just "luck of the draw." Maybe the flu has more "managers" working the phone banks?

does anyone know for global entry fee refund, does gloable entry applicant need to be the same as card holder? i am think sign up for addition card ($175 for up to 3) and use one of them for my < 18 year kid.
