They were great back in the day though. I made a fortune in cashback - used to clear it weekly as my limit was like £500 lol.
Too many credit cards? aka "The Credit Card thread"

Cashback rates really suck now
Thanks Biden
I know people say you need a credit history to get a card, but I honestly can vividly remember that back in 1998, when I turned 18, it was barely two weeks before I got the old style you’ve been pre approved letters from Capital one.
At the time it was cool, but now you look back and you think how immoral it is that the company just couldn’t wait to drag youngsters into debt.

Another week, another card to add to the collection 
It even came in a nice box!
$400 annual fee but $325 travel/dining credit so a net $75
$750 signup bonus for spending $4,500 in the first 3 months
4.5% back on all Apple Pay transactions and travel purchases

What's so special about it to come in a damn box like that.
They just saying " Thank for all your money ". You are paying for this box.

In the US contactless is basically voodoo
Nice. Perhaps this could be renamed the credit card thread, where people can discuss new cards, get advice, post new offers they’ve found etc?Just had this turn up, thanks to this thread.
You're not allowed to be negative about credit cards on this thread.
How can you be paying for the box when you're earning £100 a year in cashback for spending £10k? It's free!
Ah that's the way to justify your spending. I would have spent it anyway. Good one.
You're a bit rubbish at maths aren't you. Lol
How so
Well, yeah. I do tend to make purchases during my life. I wonder how you live without buying anything, do you never buy food, drinks, meals out? Holidays? Electrical goods?
