It's definitely more useful to the average person than their other offerings (IMO). Wouldn't be a bad first card for someone.

I had a chat with CS who confirmed existing lore: USAA does not allow product changes. Too bad, as I only use my two USAA cards for the $0.99 balance adjustment every month.

Not a terrible card. But many of us can get 5% in a lot of these categories (albeit using multiple cards). The $3000 spend cap / quarter surprises me a little as typically 3% category cards are unlimited. Like the Savor (which has 4 out of these cats alone, including less restrictive entertainment). But not bad for someone who wants one card for 8 (more like 10) cats, is okay with 3%, and doesn't spend more than the cap.

Yep, it's actually a pretty good card that I'd love to PC one of my old USAA cards over to, but it's not good enough for me to do a new app.

If only USAA would join the modern banking world and start allowing PCs... I guess a guy can wish, ha.
