So, for those that have the card and use these sites please send a support ticket asking them to add "Diners Club International" at the URL: https://www.bmoharriscreditcards.com...sumer/Login.do . ^

Differences between the legacy Professional cards and the new Consumer cards:
- Card type. Professional = charge card; Consumer = credit card
- Foreign transaction fees. Professional 3%; Consumer 0.
- CDW vehicle value cap. Professional = $75,000 (Diners) or $100,000 (Carte Blanche); Consumer = $50,000
- Other insurance. On cursory examination there appears to be differences in the carriers and terms of the other coverages. The Consumer coverages may be a standard package arranged by MasterCard, while the Professional coverages may be inherited from Citi. Someone would need to read carefully side-by-side to find the differences.

I still have my Elite card but I am thinking that Citi Prestige is much better and cheaper for lounge access. I am not sure if i should pay for both. After my last lounge visit in London i was charged $27 for my daughter. I would not have been charged if i used Citi Prestige instead of DC. i am undecided.

I have Citi Prestige too... After $250 flight credit, it is a $100 AF card for higher TYP redemption rate on AA. I will probably keep it. As far as DC Elite, I am really not sure... it is good card with true PIN security. I paid off $300 AF with points and the rest of points were either transferred to Marriott for LTP or redeemed as tailored travel credits... Will decide next month...

But honestly, chip and signature (with a PIN backup) is probably fine the vast majority of the time. "True" chip and PIN is nice as a convenience though.

I was convinced they would open up again for new consumer card apps today (December 1). Seemed like relevant timing based on when they closed them last year. Alas, it looks like more of the same and not allowing new apps. Too bad, as I am ready to go.

After logging into my Professional account the other day, I saw a notice about something that might affect some users that was going to happen in Oct 2016. So BMO is obviously not fastiduous with removing outdated notices from the Diners club website. They apparently "like" to leave an expired notice there instead of having no notice there.
