How long do I need to wait before applying for an IHG CC, UR?
Its been over a yr since I got a IHG Rewards Club Premier Credit Card
I meet the 5/24 rule
Do they still enforce the 2yr rule?

I am more interested in the Chase UR card, but have not seen any deal - any of you know one?

Your post is a little confusing. Do you want to apply for another IHG card or a card that earns UR pts?

You can't get the same IHG card now. This product is not available to either current cardmembers of this credit card, or previous cardmembers of this credit card who received a new cardmember bonus for this credit card within the last 24 months.

Have you looked at the Chase cards at www.chase.com ? What do you mean by "any deal"? There are lots of UR earning card "deals".

Any one of those - preferably 80k or more sign on bonus
I see the 60k on Chase Sapphire - prefer better deal than this

INK Preferred is 100,000 points for $15,000 in 90 days. All INK cards are business products. If you do not have a registered business, apply using your legal First Name, Last Name as the business name. Do not add ANY extra words. Read more here:

I think you’re confused on the rules. There’s no 2-year wait required between an IHG card and cards that earn UR points.

How about IHG card to earn IHG hotel points?
I do not think IHG card gives UR points.

Thanks mia

$15k spend in 90days would be very hard for me. I did this well with Amazon money(?) - but they discontinued it.
Is there any new ways to meet this spend limit?

Also Sapphire 60k only needs $4k - from 4k to 15k spend only gives 100k (considering the 15k spend reward is less)

Most of the higher bonuses than that historically have also required higher spend. Maybe not as high as the one just discussed, but still higher than $4k.

Correct, IHG cards don’t earn UR points.

My point is that you don’t have to wait 2 years after opening an IHG card to apply for a different Chase card.

If you use a referral offer from THIS thread you may find the previous INK Preferred offer which was 80,000 points for $5,000 spend.

sciconf's original post has two paragraphs. The first paragraph asks if Chase actually enforces the 24 month rule which appears in the IHG card offer. The second paragraph asks about UR cards with greater than 60,000 point bonus.
