Don't agree here. I've often seen situations where one or the other is accepted.

Unhappy Re: Comparison: The best points earning Visa/Mastercards

So is everyone using CBA platinum now? Citibank caught up with me after 4 years, and stopped my point earning on the free for life gold card from this month on.

I am not even half way through the anniversary of my billing year.

Chicken,

Wow. You certainly dragged this from out of the archives.

I use CBA platinum as it suits my circumstances. I never quite reach the points limit as I also feed through AMEX. At 1:1 point/dollar it's as good as a Visa or Mastercard gets.

If you can convince CitiBank to give you a CitiBusiness Gold card, they earn 1.25:1 (points/dollar) and are a Visa card.

At $69/year it's good value - although it probably has some sort of points cap (never been capped on mine but I don't spend /that/ much on it).

Re: Comparison: The best points earning Visa/Mastercards

Could you reapply for the Amex Qan Premium card?
