Almost 4 weeks in and my status is still wrong. It was correct for the first ~1 day and then bumped down a level. Shouldn’t be hard as all my nights last year were SPG. This is ridiculous.

I received my Sapphire Reserve bonus points March of 2017. Based on the 4 year rule, does that mean I could technically cancel that card now and then apply for a Sapphire Preferred and receive the sign up bonus? Is there a minimum amount of time I need to wait between canceling and signing up for the Preferred?
