I'm always excited to see new credit cards products introduced. Competition is (almost) always a good thing for consumers, and lately we've really seen credit card companies raise their game and increase perks. While no credit card is perfect, there are plenty of reasons to consider picking up a card. Some cards are worth getting…

CX has a credit card in Canada and it never offered anything remotely competitive to even RBC Avion (like Citibank has points to convert into Asia Miles). And RBC is the bank thst issues CX Asia Miles card...
Synchrony, Comenity and Capital One are the credit report equivalents of gonorrhea. No thanks
Yeah, doesn't sound all that exciting. So it's not likely they'll be overwhelmed with people signing up.
The Avianca card seems to have crushed Banco Popular under too many sign ups. Lots of people reporting lots of trouble with that card over on FT. I didn't have any problems, but I think I was one of the first to sign up for that one given all of the 0s in my number.
Like SQ, AM expire 3 years from issue date, with AFAIK no way to extend that.
Paltry sign up, questionable bank, expiring miles. Pass....
@Oliver, I have to agree with you. I'd much rather hold Asia Miles over AAdvantage. You never know when the next devaluation is. Look at the US to Australia awards. It's ridiculous.
One thing I will say about Asia Miles. There hasn't been much change to the rates. It's stable at least.
Speak for yourself tommy trash. It's no syphilis, but i think gonorrhea's pretty interesting
I would def not put Cap One in the same category as Synchrony and Comenity. Cap One has great starting limits and nice sign up bonuses. I have a 46 k CL on my Venture One and a 23k limit on my Venture. Never had CLD or any other problems. I will app for the Cathay card if ther is no AF. I fly them regularly. Great airline. I book award travel on them using AK miles.
What a totally uninteresting and irrelevant topic. All those CC offers just triger raw greed.
@Lucky: can you use you influence to get Hertz and National Rental Car to issue co-branded credit cards with perks? Rental car is one aspect of travel that you can't accrue any free redemptions other than by racking up as a frequent renter. Would be nice to earn rental car points that could be globally redeemed. Current programs of conversion of hotel points or FF miles are not good uses of those points and very restricted (no one-way rentals, for example).
WOW! Only "benefit" for this POS card is free FIRST YEAR ONLY Green membership in Marco Polo club. Lame. Pass.
