Literally the ugliest card ever.
QS beats it, by a close tie with DC. Also this version is alot better than the current version which is hidious, but once again not near as bad as the QS fake metal look. Just my opinion/take though

The new Ring card is a Chip and Signature with PIN enabled technology... so you can set a PIN and use it as Chip/PIN

So if I "lost" my card or it was "damaged" would I get one of the new designed card and one with chip? I think it might be getting damaged as I type with it..

LOL.. I'm not sure how that would work. I know they said for new cardmembers, they will get the new card beginning this month, but for current cardmembers, we can ask for the new design come October... but if your card gets "damaged"now, I'm not sure which card you'd get then... I'd assume the new one.

Kinda my thought... I only use it a few times a month, but new one > old in looks and that isn't saying alot lol.. Meh I will ponder how bad it is damage today/tomorrow and go from there.
I wonder how theyd respond if I told them the card I received yesterday got damaged.

Not sure what you mean by "use it as Chip/PIN". If I purchase something at (say) an EMV-enabled terminal at a supermarket, I assume it would request my signature. PIN only at unattended terminals?

wow... that is ummm.... I think the card designing dept. convo. went like this
"we have to come up with new design for the Ring card"
"what? it looks fine with that yellow stuff on it!"
"well they want a new design..."
"eff it... remember the Rewards card? make it same blue, but put bunch of circles on it... like 'circle = ring', get it?"
"Brilliant!"

The ring cardholders voted on the design. All four of the options they presented were ugly af
