Ducky, I am confused about this getting ahead organization.  Do they actually provide a service?  Is it only for Georgia residents?  It is cheap, but what do they do?

the way the delta cu rep explained it to me is that it's like a consumer counseling service who helps people with money matter, a non-profit one i think.

no, dw works for delta but us bank had her in chexsystems so she wasn't able to use her employee status to join delta. i had to join via getting ahead and add her to MY delta cu accounts. we live in ohio, so it's not just a GA thing.

it was only $5.00 i think.

For me, I love the Amex CS, warranty and purchase protection services, which have save my butt on a few occasions. Actually, the awards I don't really use and I plan on closing my gold card soon due to the AF and keeping the blue cash.

Back in the day, AMEX was the ultimate card, as it was the "hardest" to get and was "elite." Nowadays, I don't think most people share in that sentiment. I know I don't, although AMEX has always been good to me. DISCOVER is my card of choice.
