    Looking for a good credit card..

    I got a alot of store credit cards, and 2 bank credit cards, but I'm looking for a good credit card (Amex, Visa, M/C etc etc) that can possible have (free) awards. I have 100% credit, never missed payment on my C/C bills or car payments, so i know I'll be accepted. Anyone know any good ones that I can get rewards from?

    American Express Blue Cash
    0.00% Intro APR
    No annual fee
    Low balance transfer rate — 4.99% fixed APR for the life of the balance
    Flexibility to pay over time



    That looks good.

    I had a credit card from Bank of America for a short while, then chopped that mother up into small bits.
    Their bill collectors would call me up at work asking why I hadn't paid for something that I had charged up only the week before. They did that 4 times. And they screwed up my statement a few times, too. Finally I had had enough of them, asked a bill collector what my balance was, and I sent them a check for the balance that day. And then the next month, they sent me a bill for Zero Balance, but for a late fee.
    Some of my customers have had similar experiences . . .

    But on a happier side, I bought a shiny new computer from a store that had a special, where they give you $100 off if you buy a computer costing $500 or more, and if you buy it with a brand new charge card (a card that you'd apply for at that store). So, I signed up for the card, bought the computer with it, I have the PC at home now, but never got the bill (lol) . . . and wouldn't ya know it, it was a Bank of America account . . . Serves them right.

    Anyway, avoid Bank of America cards. Their accounting system is crazy.

    Yea, gotta stick with visa. I've got the CitiCard Rewards Card, which gives me 5% cash back from anything I buy at a grocery store, pharmacy (CVS/Walgreens...), and gas stations. Thats where I spend most of my money, so I get a lot of cash back. Last year, I think they sent me back about $250!

    well when I say 'perfect credit' I mean I've never missed a payment on any of my credit cards, or on my car payments.

    There's no such thing as a "good" credit card. If you don't have enough money to buy what you want, then reduce your wants. Too many people live their lives and work too many hours/days just to pay off what they don't really need.

    if you live in a city with a major carrier (Delta, or NWA) you can get a visa from them, i know delta had 2miles for every dollar spent..

    we were using them to make every payment, water, gas, mortgage... I think they changed it to 1 mile per dollar, but that's still a great deal if you spend and pay it off every month..

    were were doing 3-5000 per month, we just paid it off everytime.. no interest..

    good luck..

    Yea but have you ever tried to redeem airline miles? It's a NIGHTMARE! At least in my experience it is. If you want to leave on the 20th, you'll only be able to get a flight that leaves on the 23rd at 4am, etc. etc. IMO, the whole airline miles thing is bogus, cash back is the only way to go.

    That doesn't mean you have "perfect credit"...Even things like not having credit for very long will keep your score down some.

    Not saying its low...Its obviously very good. But it will continue to improve as you get older (and keep paying bills ontime).

    I'm an AMEX fan. Great cust service, awsome buyer protection, and the old stereotype that "no one takes them" is quickly going away.

    Whats interesting is that most merchants pay more for a corporate or rewards Visa card than they do for an Amex.
