Definitely easier and in many cases just as valuable. There are some notable exceptions especially with Chase where I can redeem points - oblique Aug 4, 12:24 3
- True. But then you are pressured/required to use them for specific things in specific time frames. "Freedom" -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 12:26 2
  - Well, that also is the value of the Chase points. I can transfer them as miles or pay myself back (1.5x value) or use them in a variety of ways - oblique Aug 4, 12:29 1
    - Well, Chase was my first CC and I swore I would never go back. - Spawn Aug 4, 12:30
1,000% agreed. -- nm - Spawn Aug 4, 11:57
