I need credit card recommendations. I have an airlines rewards card with over a million miles I may never use, I need a good cash back card that will

Posted by jnine May 20 '20, 10:24

let me transfer a balance interest free for a year and has a high limit on how much cash back you can get in a year. I use my credit card for everything, property taxes, utilities, food, everything. Suggestions?

Responses:

My Fidelity card is a straight 2% on everything, no limit, deposited directly into my Fidelity brokerage account every month. -- (edited) - znufrii, silly old man May 20, 10:56 2
- Fidelity used to give me a gold AMEX for free that was automatically paid out of my Fidelity account, but AMEX stopped the program. I didn't know - jnine May 20, 10:59 1
  - And I think you can link it to any Fidelity account, including IRAs, I just happen to have it going into my brokerage acct. -- nm* - znufrii, silly old man May 20, 11:17
It would depend on splits. I have a card that's giving 12% back at grocery stores right now. -- nm - David May 20, 10:43 2
- Is it only groceries? I haven't been in a store in over 2 months. -- nm - jnine May 20, 10:57 1
  - Yes. It's an airline card that wouldn't have much value. So, they pivoted in the short term to keep people using it. - David May 20, 10:59
amex had 3% back on restaurants, Costco citi %4 on gas...but I don't think it works on cash payments to bills -- nm - zeitgeist May 20, 10:37 7
- Probably need to be a Costco member to get that? I get 3% on gas from BoA and that is my MINI card. -- nm - Spawn May 20, 11:05
- no more fly off to another state for a weekend see a big band concert???? -- nm - zeitgeist May 20, 10:39 5
  - Not for a long time. I'm not even going to the local ones. -- nm - jnine May 20, 11:01 4
    - I'm so sorry. I know that has been a major part of your life for a long time. -- nm - Pippy - Rainbow Chaser May 20, 11:03 3
      - It was great and I miss it, but I can't believe how much money I'm saving not going anywhere. Which is good because the Reps. seem determined to make - jnine May 20, 11:07 2
        
        holy crap - I had not realized that about the pensions. - Pippy - Rainbow Chaser May 20, 11:40 1
        
        I was glad Green Day finally postponed the Hella Mega Tour. Not only was I not going in a pit, but I didn't really want to be in Pittsburgh in August. - jnine May 20, 12:42
Not sure it's "airline" but I use a Capital One VentureOne. I like it. - sycor May 20, 10:36 3
- That's great you can use it for rent, I wish I could put my mortgage on mine. -- nm - jnine May 20, 11:03
- Thanks. Yeah, I have the airline covered, I need a non-airline. -- nm - jnine May 20, 10:39 1
  - Ok then it should work. You can redeem points for whatever. I've redeemed for a few free dinners lately, gift cards, etc. -- nm - sycor May 20, 10:42
citi double cash? 2% back. that's my every day. -- nm - amanda May 20, 10:28 3
- This is probably the way to go if there is no interest in travel rewards. Chase Sapphire is the go to in that department for me. -- nm - oblique May 20, 10:52 1
  - That's where I was going to go next, but I don't think I would be using it for a long time. -- nm - jnine May 20, 11:02
- I knew you'd have a card in mind. Thanks. -- nm - jnine May 20, 10:36
