t*********u 发帖数: 26311 | 1 Chase is sending out a memo to bankers indicating that they’ll be
streamlining the Chase INK line in early 2018. Letters will be sent out this
week with more information.
Chase INK cards are now always issued as Visa cards. Anyone with an old
Chase INK Mastercard will be changed over to a Visa-branded card in February
2018 with a new card number and expiration. The existing Mastercard INK
card will remain active until April 30, 2018.
Some people have old, grandfathered INK products like the INK Classic and
INK Bold. (The Classic is similar to the INK Cash and the Bold is similar to
the INK Plus.) These will be converted to the current INK program in
February 2018 with a new card number, expiration, and Rewards earning
structure.
I’m not sure what they refer to with a change in “Rewards earning
structure.” Perhaps, they’ll be changing INK Bold cardholders to INK
Preferred, not to INK Plus (?!). I don’t know, we’ll see.
I see two potential negatives here:
Mastercard INK cards still earn 5x at PPDG. That’s a big hit for Mastercard
INK cardholders.
We’ll have to find out more about what changes are in-store for Classic and
Bold cardholders. Assuming it’s just a shift to the Cash and Plus versions
, it’s not a big deal. If they shift the Bold to become a Preferred, that’
s a negative change for a lot of people. |
