What a crock! Seems like it unfairly penalizes low income families who may not even have bank accounts. Do landlords accept credit card payments?

Makes me wonder if the change was made on purpose to encourage purchasing instead of saving, or even to deliberately cause confusion and make it more complicated to cash in.

I charge almost everything these days (groceries, autopay utilities, car insurance, all retail, etc.) and would use a $1200 credit within two months, but as others have said, can this card be trusted to keep an accurate accounting of charges, send statements, have customer service help available? Pfft.
