Thumbs Down

Well, it's official. Amex Blue Cash Preferred has gotten the "thumbs down" from oldest DD. Smiley Sad  She says it'sugly.  She wanted to know why they put blue "aluminum foil" on it. She also wanted to know why they skimped on the "paint" for the rest of the card (the clear plastic surrounding the blue "aluminum foil"). She even offered to go to work on it with some magic markers, She was totally unswayed by the cashback features, and the embedded smart chip (not even colored aluminum foil on that).

 

So much for the so-called "prestige" of credit cards. If it can't impress a tween girl, it's a lost cause. Smiley Very Happy

Re: Thumbs Down

Can you please let her fix the ugly card? I will love it if you can post the new card image once she is satisfied with her style fix...

Be thankful she's a youngster with discriminating taste.

A lot of today's youth aren't the least bit conscientious.

 

 

I know you're proud of her.   Wishing her the best of luck.

Whatever you do, don't let her see an American Express Clear!

 

I still say it looks like the aftermath of giant blue bug vs. windshield at 80 mph. Smiley Tongue
