Discover...Had to ask them myself

[woodyman100]

I could be wrong, but I swear that it is "UP TO" double cash back.

i don't think everything will end up being completely doubled

I was told by the CSR all cashback would be doubled. They could have been wrong(happens more than it should), but I'm not really sure how they would work in an "up to" in there. How would that work?

I think Discover's planning to shut shop. They'll go down with a bang

Actually, after I posted my initial suggestion, Discover's SVP of Customer Communications contacted me and assured me that Discover is in it for the long haul, they have carefully priced out the possible costs of the double promotion, and see absolutely no risk to their profits and are extremely pleased with their future growth prospects.

So yes, in big trouble for sure!

Why would they contact you? Is that a joke or are you serious?

Oh ok.

So everything's normal.

Cool, now I just need to cash out all of Discover's rewards right now. Nothing special, just felt like that.

If you and every other Discover cardholder did that, maybe we can start a run on Discover as a bank - just like the Greece banks! RIP Discover
