Actually the PRG did get some commentary.


I like the look of my PRG, but wasn't going to pay the AF to look at it. Besides I still can look at it anytime I want, I just can't use it. Heh. 


Senior gold is only $55.


True, but still not worth the AF for me IMO. Not going to pay a single cent for a card if it doesn't do anything for me but look pretty.

Do you have to be a senior to apply for that version of the Amex Gold?

MSG- lol "MIT". Funny how they can gather that from a card.

That's because on the card there's a BIG picture of building 10 and it says "MIT Federal Credit Union".


Funny I never got that when I used my Harvard Alumni card. Tbf, the rewards sucked so much that i haven't used the card since I left Cambridge.

Re: Which cards get the most attention?

Thanks for the reply, Nix. One more question, where is the link for the application for the Senior Amex Gold? Is there a trick to it like there is with the original Blue Cash? When I google it, the only thing I can find is the cardmember agreement for the Senior Amex Gold, but not the application.

I wish somebody had told me this before I married my ex. She did look pretty tho.

You'd need to have a charge card already, and then ask for it to be converted to the senior gold, though you might as well get the senior green, since (if you choose to pay to add membership rewards onto one of the senior cards) they have the same rewards structure, but senior green is cheaper.

This is the first I've ever heard about this, and it's fascinating. So they really don't care about converting it to a senior card even if you are nowhere near senior age?

Re: Which cards get the most attention?

At the moment, I only remember getting a comment on my beach design Discover card, and on my Blue Cash Everyday. All of my other cards are rather ugly(Sallie Mae, both Bank of America cards) or boring (Ring to an extent, but it's not awful, and Double Cash)

My cards never get any attention Smiley Sad

 

IMO, the QS card is decent looking, the Sallie Mae looks a lot better than in the pictures (although the rewards structure might be swaying that opinion), the TE card from Amex isn't bad looking, and the BankAmericard is bland.
