Good job.Imperfect - yes, I remember now lol...wait until you're 55 LOL, I am.  56 in October.

Libra power You made the right decision but dang you two are old :-)Hardly, just kids.   I turned 56 last birthday (and in fact I just had to check my age from my DOB!) But to be OT (you know old minds wander), the Rewards isn't really subsumed by SM, more things like the DC or Fid Amex.   It is a 2% somewhere card, and thus much less useful than a 2% anywhere.  So while I agree the SM is likely more useful, it isn't better everywhere, such as utilities.

  • Approved for a Barclays Rewards Card

    Hi So i  received a pre approval for the Barclays rewards card and surprised i was approved for 1500.00 is there anything i should know about Barclay's?  I heard once youre in good you are in a good position.  They offer the apple barclays visa card which i love Apple.  is that a good sign that my rebuilding is improving because before they wouldnt give me the time of day.

  • Barclays Rewards APR Reduction! Woohoo

    Not a big deal to most, but I got my Barclays Rewards card APR reduced from an ugly 24.99% to 20.99%. Credit analyst advised that is the 'max' at one time they can reduce the APR, which is by 4%. I've had my card since March 2015, approved after recon for $1500 with a TU score of 613. I've ran through a few thousand through the card and carry an $800 balance (at the time of APR reduction). My score today when i called was @ 654 TU (up 41 points since approval). No new INQ in the last 3 months. 3 collections falling off 2/2016 (possibly September/October with an EE). Just thought I'd share my experience with everyone. They did advise a SP CLI was not an option at the time and to try back again in a few months.

    Congrats! I spoke to an analyst yesterday and she indicated that they like to see PIF at least 4 or 5 times a year and good usage in order to get a CLI.Thank you! I usually PIF but had some unexpected expenses last few months and helping my mom out who isn't doing so well, I couldn't PIF as of the last few months. But I have been making $200-400 payments, nonetheless. Never the minimum...I will give it some more time, I bet by October after a few EE from my TU report, my chances will be a lot better since my scores will probably be another +20-30 ptsI make similar payments but going forward I have a revised plan that inlcudes spending less in order to make this a PIF card. I use this card the most because the rewards are good compared to my other cards that I have right now. 

  • Reward card never received. Is this fraud?

    Good morning, We opened an account on July 2014 but never got the reward card that was promissed.I opened the account thru internet. I have the complete conversation printed and my gift card promissed.I have been trying to contact someone to help me but its been impossible. Including, I am getting hang up! Last time, Amanda did it! That is not the best customer service... We closed the account on May 31st because of the bad customer service. And today, we are getting charged again!!! Almost two months later. I think this matter was just solved... Let see my bank tomorrow... but We can get charged really quick and not rewarded? Can somebody explain to me what happened? I think AT&T is not what we think... =( Thanks in advance, Margarita

    Should of came to this forum last July and we could of helped with your rewards, but its way to late now.  ATT doesn't just send out the reward cards, there is an easy process that must be followed to receive your rewards.
    We could of helped with any Customer Service issues that you might have.

  • Citi EO said can't open cards closed for 90 days, but can they re-use closed terms for other cards

    I used to have a much-loved 5.99% F Citi TYPref  (originally Diamond Preferred Rewards) MC that was closed out by Citi during CARD Act, in 2009, that I have been trying to get re-opened for years now (albeit unsuccessfully)    I finally called the Citi EO number today, mentioning the fact that I have faithfully and responsibly repaid over $12k on it over the past some years, but they said that they cannot open cards that have been closed for longer than 90 days    My question here though is, if Citi cannot re-open an account closed for that long, do you think they might be favorably-inclined to lowering the interest rate a little on my currently-open Citi TYPref which is at 9.24% V, so that it is even just a little closer to my old closed card; I should have asked during the call I guess but I forgot to ask, at the time?  The closed card was prolly my best credit card of all time..."the one that got away", and so I still have quite a bit of nostalgia for it and miss it, to this  day    The only open cards I still have that even come close to this old card are my FNBO Amex at 6.25% V and my BoA Cash Rewards World MC, at 9.99% F.

I highly doubt they will reopen it or even CAN reopen it, regardless of how stellar of a customer you may be. It probably simply can't be done. You do realize that your FNBO is only 0.26% higher than the card you are so desperately wanting to reopen, right? That makes very, very little difference in terms of actual interest payments. Even the existing Citi card is still not even 4% higher and like I said, 9.24% is a great rate on a rewards card. Personally, I believe you are in better shape APR wise than most of us on rewards cards and you should be happy! I'd forget about this old account. It's gone and I would say you aren't getting it back (or the matching APR).

  • Profile for Barclays Rewards application

    I am thinking of applying for Barclays rewards cc in the near future.  Could anyone advise what profile is needed to get approved for this card?  I have two credit lines (Discover iT & Cap 1 secured),  4 inquiries, AAOA 4 months, no Fico score yet.  Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Barclay Rewards was my first CC I got back in Jan 2014. Prior to that I only had student loans on my report. I was approved for $1500 after they called to ask for my past address. Four months later I got the Sallie Mae MasterCard at $4700. Obviously YMMV but giving Barclays a shot as a first CC is possible in my opinion, if you have student/auto loans on your credit report. Edit: I wanted to point out that it wouldn't be a good idea in OP's case, without having a FICO and with such new accounts, but that in general terms it is possible.

  • Can't use the Verizon reward card

    I am not able to pay anything with my Verizon reward card, not even my own Verizon bill.
    Try to talk to somebody calling the number in the back of my card (Visa) but there is no option to talk to somebody.
    Is that only happening to me? Tried to search around but couldn't find much besides people complaining about not received cards.
    Any help/direction will be appreciated.

    What is the reason given for not being able to use the card?  For assistance, please visit our Support page for a variety of ways to contact Verizon, including “Ask Verizon,” our virtual chat agent, and customer support phone numbers.

  • Scammed the amount of Verizon rewards card

    I signed up in November 2014 with Verizon being told I would get a $400 rewards prepaid card. I was told that I have to pay two billing cycles consecutively and I will receive it the third month. The triple play package I signed up for (which was the highest package)I was told it would include channels like all cable channels, I would get premium channels as well. After service was installed I noticed I didn't have channels like ESPN So I called to ask and they corrected it without informing me Anything else. So I got an activation code in the mail and email and phone call letting me know my card should be here soon. So far I still never received it yet and after tracking it down its only $250 I'm going to receive and not $400. They said it's because I added ESPN when I told the rep i was informed I was supposed to have it and they corrected it. it was a mistake on their end. And now because of I won't get what I was entitled to. I'm switching back to time warner. Don't switch to Verizon. There full of it with the rewards card offer. R

    I am having a problem with the same reward card. I received the card and PIN number. I am trying to activate the card and it is giving me errors. I have now been on hold for half an hour after talking to a rep for 5 minutes and him telling me 3 different lies, so I asked for a manager. The absolute worst experience and customer service I have ever had. I will look into all recourse to canceling my package

  • Rewards card account for FIOS service -can one check transactions and balance online?

    The phone line to check the balance is on some really bad call centerish line- so are the customer service centres-virtually inaudible on a very noisy line. THey were not aware that the web page for rewards cards does not show anything beside an image of the card and as status, the fact that it was mailed out (6 months back!) . No balance, no transactions are visible online. Neither customer service nor the rewards helpline are any use. Please advise how to check the balance and transactions online.
    Thanks

  • Reward Cards delayed arrival, wouldn't work and now expired.

    Hi,
    I'd recently moved and switched to ATT Uverse and was awarded $200 in gift cards but didn't receive the cards for a while, I called and spoke to somebody and they said they should get to me soon and a few days later I got an envelope on my door from somebody in my building that I guess had gottem them in their mail and mistakenly opened them. I've tried to use them at the grocery store and at a best buy but neither card worked and I couldn't figure out why, I tried calling the number on the back of the card but the automated system doesn't let me get through to talk to somebody and now the cards appear to be expired (which I didn't think gift cards could expire in California) but I'm confused how I even use them if they never seem to work, is there some sort of activation process or are there only authorized locations these are accepted?  thanks for any assistance you can provide

     The rewards cards need to be activated at https://rewardcenter.att.com/home.aspx . I just received 2 $150 cards today and when you activate them the money gets transfered to the card. The cards have a $0 balance before they're activated. The cards are only good for 3 months once they're issued. Mine both expire in October.

    If you look at the topics on this forum and other ATT boards, you will see that this is an ongoing problem that ATT can't seem to solve. ATT owes me $250 in gift cards. I finally got tired of their rude customer service and calling their customer service both wireless and cable AND their rewards center customer service. After months of trying to resolve this, I finally placed a complaint with the FTC and in my complaint referred to this board and other boards showing that this problem is common and on-going. I have two cellphones, internet, and cable TV with ATT. When I signed up online, I was promised $400 total in Rewards Cards. I was supposed to receive certain amount for signing up for cable, another amout for signing up for internet, another for signing up for those two online, and an extra mount for already haveing two cell phones with them. When it came down to it, I never received the notifications in the mail telling me how to redeem my cards. After calling the reward center customer service, I was about to get $200 in cards. The customer service agent claimed that she didn't see the other $200. Really?! That led to dozens of calls to the general customer service trying to figure out how to get what ATT promised me. Every time I called, the agents that answered would give me a different excuse or different reason as to why I haven't gotten the cards. All of them claimed that they could not see what promotion I was offered. Again, really?! So, when customers log in to their website to pay a bill and an offer for additional service pops up, ATT does not keep track of what they are actually offering customers? Not only this, but the email confirmation I received when I signed up for the internet and cable didn't have what was offered to me either. That's so convenient. So, when customers complain about not being given what they were offered, there is no way for customers to prove the offer because ATT does not include in its confirmations what they actually offered you. Nor does what they offered you show up anywhere on your account online. To make matters worse, the last time I called to try to get this straightened out, an agent offered me a $50 gift card to upgrade my TV service. Being stupid, I accepted it. Do you think I got that one either? No! So, all in all, ATT owes me $250 in rewards cards. Don't waste your time and energy trying to settle this with customer service. You will never get anything resolved dealing with them; even after months of calling them to try to straighten things out.  Just file a complaint with the FTC so that ATT can stop scamming their customers with these offers of gift cards that they don't intend to actually give to their customers. I filed my complaint online with the FTC about two weeks ago and I'm waiting to hear back from them.  After this gift card debacle is taken care of, I STILL have to settle another thing with ATT. A few years ago, at another apartment, one of their servicemen damaged my landlord's property while installing cable and internet. I had to pay my landlord out of my own pockets for the damage they cause. One of their regional managers told me that the installation charge and my first month's bill would be taken care of by ATT. I thought that they took care of both of those charges as they promised. A few years later, I'm adding another cellphone to my ATT wireless account and was told by an agent that I had an outstanding cable bill with ATT and that I would have to pay it before I got the phone. When I asked her the account number and address where the account is listed, lo and behold, it's the address where their tech damaged my landlords property. Turns out that ATT never took off the charges for the installation and the first bill. So, I was forced to pay over $200 just to add the new phone. That's the next issue I have to deal with when it comes to ATT and I'm sure that one won't be resolve either and that I'll be forced to file another FTC complaint. Thank goodness I kept the pictures of the damage and the emails between me and the manager regarding it. Otherwise, as with the gift cards, I'd have not proof. Being an ATT customer is such a hassel. Can't wait until my current contract is over on the two cellphones I have. I plan on going to another cell phone provider and changing my internet and cable to another provider as well. ATT has wasted so much of my time and energy with their horrible business practices and useless customer service.
