    Friends,

    I am sick and tired of the chase credit card that I currently have. Their service is very poor. I wan't to switch to a new one. Can you please share what credit card company you use and what you like and don't like about it? I hope that this thread can be a good information source for anyone deciding on a credit card. Thank you very much.

    Bharthi

    American Express - Blue Cash.

    Hi Bharthi,

    I use American Express (Blue Cash) card as my primary credit card. I also have a Visa credit card from Wells Fargo for use in establishments that don't accept american express credit card.

    The main reason I chose Amex as my primary credit card was for the cash back. Here is the cash back I get from them.

    I try to put all my expenses on american express card and at the end of the year, I receive close to $500 in cash-back. I probably think that I can do more in value if I use credit cards that give points that can be redeemed etc, but that is too much hassle for me. Amex card is plain and simple.
