Hi everyone! I have a Chase Sapphire Preferred card right now. I want to upgrade to the Chase Sapphire Reserve card.

I’ve heard it’s better to downgrade the Chase Preferred card to a Freedom Unlimited card and then apply for the Reserve card.

I have about 150k points on my Preferred card — if I downgrade to the freedom unlimited card will I get to keep my points? Will my points be worth the same for travel/pay yourself back? (I think it’s 25% more)

Question for fellow attorneys:

I applied to a credit card with Chase a few months ago and within 7 days I was told it was rejected and they would send a letter explaining why.

Chase has recently calling to say it expired (they said it wasn’t rejected but I was told on the recorded line that it was).

Isn’t this against the law (fair credit reporting act)?. I’m not a lawyer so I’d love to hear your thoughts
