re: Credit Card Rewards and Points Discussion

Does UR do point buys? Like SW is always offering "Buy rewards miles at x discount" which for them, isn't a deal whatsoever. 

But having the CSR and the 50% redemption bonus, I'm wondering, 1) If UR does do point buys

Yeah those SW point "deals" are terrible.

I don't think UR does point buys, but unlike SW you can pay with points and cash. Every purchase you make on UR you have the option to use as many points as you want towards it, and just pay for the rest. It's useful in some cases.

2) If you have CSR if you actually come out ahead ?

If you mean is it worth the annual fee? Absolutely in my case. If you use it for travel and that 50% boost, you can rack up.
