Yeah - bummer, indeed.

 

Even worse, the 5% on gas for More is over as well.  I'll only get 3% for the quarter...woe is me.

I guess the only 5% on gas now rest on Penfed's card. The card has a permanent 5% cashback on gas

I'm not ready for one of Penfed's cards, yet.  At least, not according to them.

Same here, I would have loved the gas card or even the new defender card.

I went to a restuarant with some co-workers and used my BCE to pay instead of my Freedom.  Oops.  $.30 I missed out on.
