Csr doesn’t seem to be worth the $550 annual fee anymore with fu also getting you 3x on restaurants, and 5x on airfare through chase portal. The main benefit left is the transfer partners and the travel and rental car insurances, which csp at $95 annual fee also covers (vs csr’s $250 effective annual fee). I’ve personally switched to amex for accumulating points, and keep a chase setup to earn ur points as backup when amex isn’t accepted. My chase setup after downgrading csr will be csp, fu, ink cash (sebby’s right about the 5x giftcards), united business (for free excursion stop, free checked bags and 2 lounge visits/yr for $95 annual fee, and it also has primary cdw rental insurance) and ihg premier (for mastercard’s cell phone insurance, annual cert night for $85 annual fee, and in general I like ihg’s hotels more than hilton’s for economy travel, e.g., holiday inn vs hampton inn).
