I was looking to make some hotel reservations using the Chase Ultimate Rewards site.
While the price they gave was 'competitive' with most booking sites, it was not good enough. I found another site that had the exact same room for $30 a night less. There is one catch. To get a full refund, I have to cancel two days before arrival instead of one day. I would lose one nights charges if I miss the two day cancellation. I think the total saving for my stay is worth the risk.
I still like the card for the trip insurance and primary auto rental. And the ability to move points to an airline or hotel chain. But, a savings of nearly $200 total is hard to pass up.
