I disagree. Please look at post 1 again. The OP mentioned having both Ink Bold and Freedom, and did explain only using Freedom for quarterly bonuses, and then at the bottom of the post did explain that his main use of Chase points is for airline miles!
If OP preserves Freedom for the quarterly bonus, and has only spent $100 in the bonus categories each quarter, UR earned will be insignificant. Bottom line - what OP needs to do is to review his spending/UR earning for Freedom. Without that information, what we have been arguing are pointless.

So while I can see how you might make an assumption that a standalone Freedom card is more likely to be used as a cashback card, I don't see why you'd make that assumption for someone who's paired their Freedom with a CSP or Ink Bold and who explained that they transfer Chase points to airlines.

OP,
One thing not addressed in the volley above is that your only no-FTF card is the Ink Bold. If you intend to continue doing international travel, you might want to be sure you have a personal card with no FTF. Upthread, wheelsfirst suggested swapping the MP/Select for the CSP. You might also just add the CSP to your wallet and keep the Select. Again, this assumes you'll be flying UA enough to justify doing this. I like to carry at least two no-FTF cards for international travel - the CSP and an AMEX SPG (for as long as it lasts). I prefer to limit my Ink Bold use to only the 5X categories. |
