Your 3 awesome new cards for all of 2015?!!

[Anonymous]

4 new accounts in 2015.

Favorite appearance: AMEX BCE (although I wish I would've known the $500 sign-up bonus was incoming instead of settling for the standard $100...)

Favorite rewards: Discover It

Favorite perks & sign-up bonus: AMEX DL Gold (50k miles, $50 statement credit; will probably cancel at the 13 month mark though unless I make the AF back via AMEX Offers this year, they offer some sort of retention bonus (even 2,500 miles may do the trick), or I value the benefits enough to keep it around by then).

Chase Amazon was a worthless card for me. In hindsight, I should probably have app'd for Sallie Mae and held off on the BCE.

My favorite approvals of 2015 were:

1) Citi Prestige @ $24k
2) Chase Hyatt @ $27k
3) Amex Platinum 100k (was lucky enough to double dip on bonus)

Discover wins of course, for being a 0% card with great rewards cats this year and of course those promos

CSP came up big for our two big trips this year, got over $2000 in plane tickets free from the bonus and some spend

FNBO AmEx was a lucky last minute grab that will benefit me bigtime longterm if I get in trouble

Ameriprise Platinum gets honorable mention for saving over $500 in joint AF while providing 25k MR and all the usual plat bennies. Too bad you aren't the 100k offer but at least I'm still eligible...

Through no fault of its own, double cash ended up being the worst. After I got approved for it, I was approved for JCB, approved for FNBO amex, and Discover announced their double rewards deal, so DC hasn't seen a lot of use. Poor guy, at least you aren't Simplicity...

Discover wins for my 2015 year because it financed all my Home Improvement Projects at 2% and 10% cash back

SallieMae for Amazon, Groceries and Gas.

Quick Silver for everything. Merged my QS1 into it. Great Card.

Most anticipated cards I am going to use alot in 2016:

DoubleCash becomes my daily. Can't wait til I get a better CL.

AARP - Unlimited 3% Restaurants and Gas, need I say more lol..

Huntington Voice is my highest CL and it becomes our Walmart card.

Honorable Mention:

Venture and my metal VentureOne - 40k and 20k bonus miles..

Why do you still use Cash Rewards when you have citi dc and AARP?

My bro has these exact 3 cards (2 of which I apped for him) and I forced him to SD his cash rewards.

Never said I use the BoA card...that was the first one of the good three for the year.

I may PC to Travel Rewards, giving me a no FTF card.

Sorry, I meant to say why is that in your top 3, followed my comments. Just assumed you used it since its number 2, above Citi DC which has unlimited 2%...

1. Cap1 platinum-compared to the rest of the cards they have this card is weak, but it got me on the path to better scores across the board. Started at 300, now 3,300.

2. Discover IT- First card I got after the cap1 card, and did I ever take advantage of the 5% rewards this holiday season! Next 3 months it will be my go to for gas. 4K limit.

3. Chase Freedom- Same perks as discover, but I can use it places where discover isn't accepted. Basically a backup and a card to further establish my credit history. 1,200 limit.

Those are my three...due in part to the fact that those are the only three I got this year

Edit; I forgot I got a store card, but I wouldn't put it in the top 3 anyway.
