I checked my utilities - none of them accepts credit card payments for free - all charge fees of around $4 per payment. As for convenience stores, I do not shop there so often for this new feature to make any difference (I wonder who is...). Things definitely have not changed to the better with this card.

I applied online 2 weeks ago, received cards yesterday. Citbank.com is still promoting on their website at: " www.citibank.com/us/cards/cardserv/divplat/rebate.jsp " Would definitely be a bummer if they discontinue 5% just after I receive it.

I say we all start using cash, stop buying stuff on credit, and quit buying gas. Fellow peasants revolt before it's too late!

You're right of course that I was imprecise in describing Chase's offerings. What I should have said is that Chase has discontinued marketing the Cash Plus card. Personally, I would take it as a sign of things to come, and would be reluctant to get the card now, with the expectation that those rewards would continue. Especially in light of the Citibank rumors. Noorts,

Just because the website does not have these cards does not mean that they are not available. Get your information straight.
