Before I got the Chase Ink Cash (CIC) card, I used to use my Chase Sapphire Preferred (CSP) card to get 3x points on streaming services.
It showed up on my statement as “movie and video production and distribution,” so I didn’t think it would count as cable and internet to get 5x points with the Chase Ink Cash card.
Now, I just buy Google Play gift cards from Staples to get 5x points and use those to pay for YouTube TV.
But if streaming services would automatically earn 5x points with the Chase Ink Cash, that would save me a lot of hassle.

It’s simple to create a British Airways account if you need one.
However, since your reservation is with American Airlines, if you needed to make changes or cancel your flight, you’d do so through American Airlines, not British Airways

If you’re considering downgrading your Chase Sapphire Preferred card, Chase offers several options within its lineup of personal credit cards.
You can choose from the Chase Freedom Unlimited, which earns 1.5% cash back on all purchases and offers 5% cash back on travel booked through Chase Ultimate Rewards, along with 3% cash back on dining and drugstore purchases, all with no annual fee.
Another option is the Chase Freedom Flex, which provides 5% cash back on up to $1,500 in combined purchases in bonus categories each quarter activated, as well as the same travel and dining rewards as the Freedom Unlimited, with an additional 1% cash back on other purchases, also with no annual fee.
If you’re already a Chase Freedom cardholder, though it’s no longer available to new applicants, you can still utilize its benefits and downgrade to it, enjoying 5% cash back on bonus categories and 1% cash back on other purchases without an annual fee.
Lastly, there’s the Chase Slate Edge, offering a low introductory APR on purchases and balance transfers, with no annual fee.
These options provide flexibility for adjusting your credit card to better suit your needs.

If you are under 5/24, then do the personal cards first like Chase Sapphire Preferred or Chase Sapphire Reserve.
Don’t do the Freedom cards.

Your Chase Sapphire Preferred has travel insurance built in, so I would check to see what that offers before buying Airbnb’s version.
More than likely, CSP has the same coverage as Allianz (I think they might be Chase’s provider actually).

Your initial order deposit (usually $100) is paid via card and applied to your order.
The rest is paid via Plaid, which is ACH bank transfer only.
Maybe you can use your Bilt number and see how fast they ban you!

Check out Turo.
It is like Airbnb but for car rentals and there are a lot of Teslas on there.

I’ve had it for about a year and wish I would have applied sooner.
For a no-annual fee card, it offers incredible benefits.
I’ve taken advantage of several transfer bonuses, my favorite thing is I can transfer to AA.

Yes, it is doable.
90 minutes is the minimum connection time at Paris CDG for international flights.

Vamos car rental was great in Liberia.
Purchase their insurance.
I can’t remember the cost, but I do remember pricing it out against all other options, including the insurance.

Wouldn’t it be easier to update your name on your airline account to match your cards instead of your credit account?
