My UA Club card gets the vast majority of my spending. The CSP comes in at a very distant second.
The heaviest use for this year will be Chase Pres. Plus whereas last year Amex Platinum was "the" card and the year before that Discover. I've been rotaing like this for years. Amex PRG gets the most consistent use with groceries/gas.
After reworking my portfolio this evening, here is my new list:

Till tomorrow, when the 1 year promotion expires, the Citi 5x TYP. After that, Amex Blue Cash.
Just curious, Is this 5X still offered for NEW applicants?

Outside of bonus categories I've been strictly using the Amex BCE. It's my first amex so I like pulling it out. I also want to establish a good rapport with them in these first 6 months to get those 3x CLI's!
If Amex is not accepted I use the Freedom.
I did the same thing when I got my first AmEx. It felt really good to be at the point where I was an AmEx cardmember, so I definitely used it everywhere I could!

No, went dead on the web around May 2013 and dead in the branches in June or July (a few lucky people were able to use old forms in the branches and got them honoured, but no recent successes at this).
Citi won't repeat this unchanged, a lot of people were able to make a lot of money from this card, because Citi failed to include any caps and failed to include the needed language in their Terms and Conditions.. Wells Fargo is also making the same mistake, but seem to be cleverer at slowing people down
Citi closed a lot of people down but then had to pay anyway in Small Claims court actions.
