AARP Question

Santi78342 — Tue, 10 Feb 2015 04:35:15 GMT

For online and mobile banking do you use the Chase website/app or do you login at the AARP site and there is no mobile app?

TIA

3% back on food and gas uncapped with a $20 redemption threshold.

Food includes fast food and fine dining. Gas includes anything you buy at a gas station inside or out.

Is there a way to transfer the points you earn on AARP to UR points?

Uncapped 3% cashback on restaurants and gas dude and incredibly easy to rack up points. Also similar sign up bonus and terms that the Freedom has.

Also the card is really nice looking as well. Pretty underrated if you ask me.

Yes, but if you spend a lot and do "good" redemptions, CSP is probably more valuable, as 2UR > 3% in that situation (even with the AF).

And out there but not available, the Citi Forward is very good on food as well.

Can someone please show me a real picture of the card? That would be dope. I'm seriously dying to see it so I'm honestly asking, not trolling. I can't find a realistic one online. It's not an ugly card by any means, but it doesn't look special to me either. I said in another post that it looks like a red version of the Chase Amazon Rewards card, which is another decent looking card (though I haven't seen one in almost 3 years).

Assume it looks like this picture? I assume I can post this since it appears to be a stock image, just googled it.

This is on my radar for 2015. Got this offer this week and wonder if there is better coming if I hold out?

0% for 12 mths - then 16.24%
$100 bonus cashback on $500 spend first 3 Months
3% CB on Gas
3% CB on Restaurants

This one is good till end of March but I am not ready to apply.

If you can, I'd also get the Sallie Mae because it covers 5% at Amazon for the first $750 of purchases. It's an elusive card for me.

Good is always highly subjective. Have you reviewed the information on the site to see if it is suited to you?

It looks just like it does on the site and in the results from a Google image search.

The offer on AARP is pretty standard. I've never seen them offer anything better. Also Chase pre-approval are pretty much golden. If you got an offer the card is basically yours for the taking.

Oh yeah, I've seen that picture before. It is a good looking card but it still doesn't look dazzling like how others described it. Regardless, it's on my list.
