OP, I assume this is for your Double Cash card? Hopefully it is upgraded to a WEMC.

UFGuy2006 your credit cards are very impressive.

I didn't even know some of those cards could go that high, for instance your Sams at $35k. Freedom at $80.5k.. WOW

I hope one day my cards look like yours.

Your Barclays Ring card is contactless?

My DC just expired, so the new one they sent me is a "World" MC - used to be a plain ole MC. No WEMC for me...

Probably just a generic stock image. That's the old card design and the new one doesn't show the contactless logo.

+1 to credit guy

That is just the Google image. Never changed it when I got new design.

They also could be reissuing the card if there was some sort of credit card breech at a merchant you use...

Iv had similar things like this happen before..

Yes. sometimes the card company proactively reissues cards before you even know about it..

I have the exact same message/dates on my account. Same for me, have a Citi DC, it is already chip-enabled and says regular MC, but when I've called before, they've told me that it is actually a WMC according to their system. I'm hoping it's being upgraded to WEMC too...!

Of course, it's a World MasterCard according to their system, so not only did Citi fail to send you a newly branded card, but they are probably not giving you even 1/2 of the benefits a 'normal' World MasterCard provides while also collecting the higher interchange fees in the process. Citi is rather greedy when it comes to their credit cards. Not only are the conservative, but they don't provide as many benefits as they should.
