WOuld like a cash back and air miles card

in Credit cards
I'm planning on travelling overseas 2-3 times/year on business and thought a cash back AND air miles credit card would be a good addition to the Santander (Abbey) zero card. Thought I'd go for the BA AMEX as a site said it did cash back and air miles. But can't see how the cash back works. I think it's only in air miles. Is there an advantage to having a credit card that gives air miles? [FONT="][/FONT]

As far as I can tell the BA Amex card only gives air miles. Reward cards tend to offer either cash back (normally credited to your credit card account) or airline frequent flyer miles. To my knowledge nobody offers both on the same card. Whether a particular reward card is right for you will depend on which airline you normally travel with and if you will accumulate enough miles to actually redeem a reward.
Reward cards are only worth it if you normally pay off your balance in full each month.0 -
If you decide to go for a cashback credit card, this table on the stoozing site (which is sponsored by Money Saving Expert) should help:
