Well GE seems to be a stickler for these type of things .. Honestly its really no info anyone can offer imo GE detaches itself from consumers and walks straight into the future of computers... Ever notice how theres no reconning GE nor any direct analyst that you can speak with .... Only time and usage will get you that upgrade although i have never heard of an upgrade offered to anyone as of yet in regards to the Paypal MC and SC ... I've seen Wmt Store > WMT Discover and Sams Store > Sams Discover even Old Navy Store > Old Navy Visa etc etc.... but never has any since i've been on this board posted about being upgraded from SC > PPMC ..... Most just reapply when they feel that are in a better spot....Although i must add your arent missing anything lol... My PPMC stays at a $0 balance i never use it anymore far other better rewards card it was one of my starters served its purpose but it got me to were i am currently so I have to give it the respect it deserves....

They both are the same ... Ebay MC and PPMC are one in the same just one offers a reward when signing up and one doesnt.... at least that only thing i've made of teh difference between them... Trust me you arent missing anything.. You have a SM , IT and QS you have a far better set then having PPMC could give you.... I'm actually still waiting to get a SM that offers half the rewards ill need right there in 5%....

my SM will be here next week. I want to send a picutre of it to the customer advocate at SM. I bug them once a month to try to get my Student loans taken off my credit report. I think I have costed them over 10 bucks in postage let alone the amount of time they have to pay someone to write the letters and talk to me about why they wont remove the loans. Now if i can just get my sams mastercard I will be all set . But with my luck I will just get the store version...

Hehe... I'd say go for it even if you get the store version its still a chance it could graduate especially with them converting over to MC soon and a new reward structure its definitely worth wild...

I cant wait to go for my Sallie Mae man that will instantly be my main card because the 5% fit just my monthly spending patterns i should have no prob maxing each field out each month ... I believe its $250 a month per category of gas and groceries correct or is it $250 total between the two?

Really theres terms could fool you....heres an exact copy maybe you can call and ask .... look "5% gasoline category rewards are earned on the first $250 net purchases made per monthly billing cycle at eligible gas stations and service stations. 5% groceries category rewards are earned on the first $250 net purchases made per monthly billing cycle at eligible grocery stores and super markets. 5% books category rewards are earned on the first $750 net purchases made per monthly billing cycle at eligible book stores. " ......

5% cash back on the first $250 you spend per month on eligible gas and grocery purchases each and the first $750 you spend per month on eligible book purchases.

My bad. It is not combined it is seperate! So 250 each

You would have to close smartconnect(in my case) and app for the MC version.

yes when you redeem your point or whatever, its actually like .50 per point or dollar.

So in reality, you are only getting .50 at best when u redeem.(which is really a joke).

But I understand people get GE cards for a util purpose and their generous limit.(in terms of CLI)

That is just what I did, I closed smart connect and applied for the MC and was approved for 1500. I hated that I needed another HP but thats life lol.
