For me....

 

Chase Freedom

Discover IT

then

AMEX BCP.

 

One Q?  My Freedom says I'm getting 5% back.  Where are others getting the 5.5% from Freedom??  Smiley Frustrated


Those that have a checking account with Chase get an extra 10% bonus on all UR points earned in a year.

Why does everyone seem to bash on the Discover 5% CB this quarter? It is going to be my main gas card. When I'm not getting 5% CB on gas, I'm receiving 3.3% from BofA (10% Checking Account Bonus.)

Discover - the 5% is good for other purchases at gas stations.. Don't belive it was a slam on discover just some spend more on cigarettes etc..


(Chase)- Freedom, CSP®, United MileagePlus® Explorer, Marriott Rewards® Premier, Penfed cash+ rewards/Promise/Defender.
Amex’s- BCE, Hilton, SPG®, PRG® and Blue®, NFCU Cash Rewards, FHB Destinations World Elite.

I don't think it was an slam, but i think an lot of people who want to use freedom instead of discover, value UR points at nearly 2 per. So in essence you are getting nearly 10x using freedom at gas stations.

My question is not about gas, because that's obvious....

But what about food? Restaurants/fast food? What are you guys using for that?
 

This is my dilemma too.  I'll miss that 5%!  Maybe it will keep me from eating.  lol
