MBNA SPG Credit Card Discontinued?
2009-09-02 12:30:00 It’s official folks, with great disappointment MBNA Canada has officially discontinued its popular Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) Credit card (thanks to Nabeel for the heads up). For those of you who are fairly new to the blog, the MBNA SPG credit card is my favorite credit card and I use it for every purchase possible. When points are redeemed prudently, the return on money spent can be upwards of 6%. Here is the official news from flyertalk: As of August 31, 2009 SPG will no longer offer the SPG MasterCard from MBNA in Canada. SPG is creating an exciting new credit card that will be announced soon on spg.com. You will continue to be able to earn Starpoints and receive benefits as you normally do through February 28, 2010 on your current SPG/MBNA MasterCard. Sometime between March 1 – March 30, 2010, MBNA will send current SPG/MBNA cardholders a new MBNA credit card and the account will automatically transition to that new credit card. It will not, however, earn Starpoint...

More Persistence Required to Get Credit Card Charges Waived These Days
2009-07-12 15:31:00 Some frugalistas never use credit cards. Others, like me, use them for convenience, ease of record keeping and rewards, but pay the full balance every month to avoid finance charges. But I'm human, and sometimes I slip up. Last month, I put my bill aside because I noticed some charges that I needed to call the vendors about. Before I knew it, I had forgotten that I hadn't paid the bill immediately like I usually do. By then, it was Too Late -- my account already had a late fee and a finance charge on it. Now, most people know that as long as you have a good record with your card company and don't carry a balance, you...
Credit Card Usage Inconvenience due to RBI Regulations
2009-07-07 07:45:00 The budget has just been released, with the government taking a few good steps towards e-governance. However, in the furore over the budget, some important news has been missed out. RBI, on the 18th of February this year, released a circular on how banks must provide a system for separate authentication. As per the current rules, a person in possession of the credit card need only provide the name, code, validity, the details of which are available on the card. In order to create one more layer of security for ‘card not present’ transactions, all transactions over Rs. 5000/- will now require a separate authentication PIN which will be provided by the Financial institution. The concept of this one layer of security is not unique. Services like VBV (Verified by Visa) and Mastercard Securecode are already in practice, though most credit card users do not use them. The implementation of this practice will however, only dishearten the already dismal state of the credit card i...

Black Card
2009-05-29 15:49:00 When Ziggy wakes me up at 4:00 a.m. by playing with the bedroom blinds, I sometimes think to myself, I wish I had 24-hour concierge service. It would be so nice to call someone whenever I wanted to ask about vacation ideas and travel guides and whatever else concierges do. Well, imagine my excitement when I received such an offer in the mail. Besides the 24-hour concierge service, I would also get luxury gifts, be a part of an exclusive rewards program and have my very own patent pending carbon card. All of this could be mine since I received an invitation to apply for "the world?s most prestigious and versatile credit card," the Visa Black Card. The Director of Customer Experience sent me a personal invitation "limited to only 1% of U.S. residents." Someone must have made a huge mistake to ever include me in the 1% of anything in the United States.*So anyway, all I need to do to have my own Black Card is pay an annual fee of $495, and I?m in.
