PenFed. Great cash rewards, automatically credited every month, no saving up, no expiration. Fantastic CS. Generous with the CLI's. And I understand that they're working on their website, thank goodness.

AmEx Gold Rewards Plus. So far, so good. They caught fraudulent usage on it, did three-way calls with Amazon and PayPal, replaced the card with a new number (overnighted it, too), points keep piling on, even though I hardly travel at all. I've always been happy with their CS.

Really, I'm happy with the others, too (USAA x2, generous and great CS), Chase, etc. I'm killing off the ones I don't like, so that makes this easy!

Citi Dividend Platinum Select - although I'm not sure they still market it. Regular CLIs, the CS is good, and the rewards are good (1% cash back, 2% for groceries, utilities, gas, drugstore, etc.).

 

Although I just converted a BofA card I had to a Bank Americard and I think that might become my new favorite card when it arrives.

And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

AmEx Blue Cash, because it's working out very nicely indeed right now (PC'd to it from the Blue in August, added my husband as an AU, and we've racked up, hmmm, $75 or so in cash rebate so far, all without carrying a balance for more than a week at a time) - but who knows how long that's going to last? I could certainly do without the side order of paranoia that comes as standard with any AmEx these days. Smiley Indifferent

 

Edited to add - I also like it because it's my highest limit - but again, who knows how long THAT is going to last?
