Why would someone MS with a CFU anyway? 1.5% just isn't worth the trouble.
If you need the UR points that badly, get CIP, CIC, and CIU - that's 180K UR just for the 3 SUBs, or 360K in 2P mode. That's what we've done.
Then MS with the CIC for 5% at Staples if you must...

....Because 5/24 maybe means these are off limits
Also after you get past SUB, buying 200VGC at Staples/OD only makes sense during the promos. Otherwise Simon 1k cards are lower cost MS

-"Selling, or participating in the sale or exchange of, gift cards, travel or other items of value obtained through use of rewards" point #2 in the letter doesn't = an advertised feature.
Fine print is corporate initiated consumer deception by nature

Chase actually used the words "Manufacturing Spend"? Well, how about that?
We do have a shut down thread in the Chase forum, as well. You can find it here: Chase Shut Downs & Credit-Card Account Closures: Data, Tales & Speculation 2019-on

Just stop ALL MS activity if you got a letter like that. It's a bit hard to believe you'd have to ask about continuing to MS when you get a letter like that. A friend got a letter like that and he stopped MS activity but he was shut down on ALL of his cards 30 days later. You do NOT want to get banned from Chase as they have so many great cards.
