Paypal should be ashamed of this card though. Letting Synch bait-and-switch people for the "platinum" card is a terrible scam. The ~2.5% back at gas stations and restaurants sounds nice and all, but they can still give you a card for 0% back if the monkeys at Synch hit said button.
I agree that this "bait-and-switch" is pretty crappy. I currently have the Marvel MC through Synch and have been pretty happy with it and the customer service. I'm a little saddened to see Synch do something like this but at the same time I am glad they are attempting to be competitive with the larger banks.
If it was a 2% everyewhere card like Citi DC or Blispay I'd jump on it but as it stands, no thanks.
