What about the Wellsfargo propel by AMEX. It’s one point per 1 dollar with $600 refund and $25 deductible. Which one would you choose if you had both cards?

The Chase Ink Preferred that you reviewed a week or two ago also offers cell phone protection plan. I think their limit is just $600 per claim vs the $800 on the new IHG. I have the old IHG card, but I use the Ink card for cell phone protection since I can add that to company expense.

I heard from one of walker’s wallet video that if you pay your cellphone bill with Uber card it gives you 2% back, cause it counts as online purchases, is that correct?

I agree most of the time it is a hassle to monitor price for price protection. Awesome video

Very disappointed about this change. I have 9 cards and none have price protection now

Hi @Credit Shifu quick question; can you combine the IHG anniversary night with two award nights to get a 4th night free? Thanks! πŸ˜ŽπŸ‘

Does anyone know if this covers your phone if you use Pre-paid cell phone plans like the one from T-Mobile?

It's still $89 for a world elite mastercard. That's a steal. I'm probably gonna get this just for cell phone protection alone. That's gonna save me hundreds alone. With global entry, and trip cancellation insurance this card is already super valuable. And if I take a weekend somewhere I can use a free anniversary night as well as get platinum status for IHG hotels plus the Lyft benefit this card has absolutely ridiculous value. Honestly in my opinion for $89 bucks you cant beat it. Just for cell phone and global entry credits it's worth it. You dont even need to stay at IHG all the time or at all.
