^don't those have a limit to how much cash back you can get?

TD bank has a good travel visa (their top card + points), free if you have 5k in your bank account

Mbna cash back is solid

First 6 months, 3% on every purchase

Afterwards. 2% on gas and groceries up to $600.

1% on everything else and the gas and groceries (after $600)

No annual fee, always receive $50 cashback in a cheque 1-2 weeks after i get enough pts.

mbna +1
check on rfd for a good read on it:
http://forums.redflagdeals.com/mbna-...ilable-722828/

a good travel card is capitalone world aspire card.
costs $120 annually, but they give you $100 worth of travel credit every year...so it costs, really $20 per year. plus, they give you an initiation credit of $350 worth of travel credit... so technically you're using the card for 17 years for free, then $20 per year after that

or if you insist on collecting the travel points at half the pace but with no annual fee, they have a capitalone gold aspire too.

just a warning, the call center people at cap1 are kinda dumb and useless 90% of the time. lol..

i remember TD infinity travel is a free card, if you keep a certain value in your checkings account? (not 100% sure)

I might be wrong...but I heard the MBNA card has been discontinued for over a year now.

They still have a wide variety of cards...but the one with 3% cashback has been discontinued. You have to sign up with one of their regular cards, get approval, and then after you receive your card....call into retention to cancel your card + ask to be transferred to the 3% cashback program. Worked for some people, and failed for some people.

Really? I have had the MBNA Smart Card for over a year now. I use it for everything possible and get $50 cheques nearly every month. No annual fee.

5% cash back on gas and groceries for first 6 months, 3% there after
1% on everything else

^note the 3% on gas and groceries is only valid up to first $600..so you max out at $18 per month on the 3% and everything goes to 1% above that

Its actually the first $600 each month that's at 3% so that should be sufficient for most people.

BEFORE you guys apply for these credit cards..check out great canadian rebates site FIRST..

because for example applying for mbna smart cash and getting approved will get you $60 cash back if you go through their site to sign up..
cash back for lots of other merchants too...

if you travel, pay the annual fee for a credit card as the perks more than make up for it. Every time I travel I make sure to break a rental car.

Yep my gf was so impressed she signed up for this card on the weekend through great canadian rebates. When she is approved she will get $62 (they give you $2 for signing up on the site plus $60 once you get the card).

Be sure to request a cheque in your GCR account.

I hope TD keeps this card going for a while. Love getting $50 cheques.

What are the thoughts on signing up for either of the two American Express Gold cards through Great Canadian Rebate? You get $60~65 back from them.
Then either 15,000 (or 25,000) welcome points, which is enough for a short-haul flight.

No first year annual fee.

Then maybe transfer those points away (to your own frequent flyer program), and cancel the card before 1 years' up?

Or would the record of cancelling the card on your credit history not worth it?

Travel that's flexible, no matter the destination.

This is a car forum, I spend money on car goods/service etc, and so it's helpful for me. Just read the info from the website.
