Re: Complaint about the Discover IT Card build quality

While I haven't used my card once for any purchases, I will agree that the card feels horrible compared to the other cards, I do not know, maybe I am just used to the build quality of my CSP as that is my daily driver that whenever I hold the Discover card it feels like it is cardboard.

 

Oh and I hate the design on it in person, the pictures make it look much better.

Re: Complaint about the Discover IT Card build quality

The only issue I had with mine is when a drive through cashier dropped it on the pavement. The textured part was so ridiculously scratched. Other then that it's just like any of my other cards. Personally I like the designs. I have the regular textured one, skyline, and mixtape. I just wish they offered the textured one in different colors.

Thank you!

That's what I am talking about! Just some cheap quality stuff!

 

I also have a CSP card, it feels nice, looks nice and looks sleek.

Hell even my Chase Freedom Card still looks like an amazing card!

Yeah the design gets scratched really quick, worse than any other credit cards I've ever owned, when I hold on to the card, I don't enjoy it much.

But I do certainly enjoy the rewards. Smiley Tongue

I haven't really had any problems with the quality of the plastic, though I use a card jacket with it when it's in my wallet to protect it (especially to protect the magnetic stripe).
