Question
Just received an offer to "upgrade" to the WP Signature Visa (same annual cost as WP Gold Visa). Not really sure how this would benefit me .... no bonus miles, etc., except for an offer for 20% off of any published fare (for 2 people, purchased through NWA.com) after renewing the card in 2002!
Any words on if there is any added value to this card?

I think Signature Visa is the higest level of Visa. It kind of competes against the AMEX Centurian and MC World.
Not sure if you get extra services from them, but check this out on visa's website, it should have some useful information http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I also received the 'upgrade' offer. I was Immediately suspicious.
The only difference I could spot is that the fee for cash advances for the sig card is higher. I recently had to take a cash advance on my Wperks gold card, which I think kicked in the auto offer. BEWARE

The offer I got also promised an additional 3K wp miles (after 4 months with the card) and an increased credit limit (unlimited with further documentation.)

The Travel Channel on TV did a segment on the Visa Signature card a few days ago. It talked about the concierge service that is "supposedly" able to get a card holder just about anything they need when it comes to travel, hard-to-get tickets for special events and restaurant reservations that normally are impossible to get, etc.
