Visa Black Card - The Black Card Made of Carbon Graphite

[-RED]

Does anybody have this card, and or have feedback about how they qualify you, and what CRA they pull etc?

I'm not into AMEX, but this Visa card is much more appealing anyway, because of such ease of use.

Thanks!

Is that the one with the $495 AF?

I believe there are other issuers of this card then AMEX.

This is Barclay's Card, and clearly they have had the idea long enough to have www.blackcard.com and phone number as simple as the web addy.

I don't have personal experience with this card,but quite a bit of info can be found over at the luxurycard website

Hope that helps

^ I thank you!

Anybody else have some feedback.

I have read stuff on this card, but want to see what people might have to say here.

I believe it has been reported here (you could search for it) and elsewhere that this card is high on fees and low on benefits obtained.

Consider the source = Barclays. They are not exactly a font of directly offered high end products. The card is basically an AF/ego fee scam.

If you want a real premium CC try Ameriprise World Elite MC:

I have the Discover Black Glow card with no AF.

All I know is that my son-in-law got a "pre-approved" solicitation in the mail. He maybe makes $30 a year. Don't have a clue as to why he was solicited.

My daughter...the sensible one of the pair...said, "Are you kidding??? Not with a $500 annual fee."

That was the end of that discussion.
