RE the death benefit, that is something I have not factored in to the value of their program:) But I guess it is a nice benefit. Glad you found the post helpful!

My husband and I are giving up our American Express Delta SkyMiles credit cards, in favor of one of the Fidelity Investment credit cards. If you have an IRA or other investment with Fidelity, these are a better deal. Investments also can have a PAYABLE UPON DEATH or a BENEFICIARY. As far as I know, our SkyMiles Points die with us.
