    5K is (supposed to be) the cut off point for 3%, thereafter it is 0.5%

    I am up to £85 cashback so far & don`t use it as my main card. Is anyone over the £150 mark which would indicate 5K is not the cut off point.
    See my + others posts above. Have reached 5k and still getting 3%
  • This is a great card. Even though my credit agreement arived with a coffee ring stain on it!

    Who will be the first to lose the 3% promotion ???????????

    Maybe its worth listing our individual
    a) Cashback total
    b) Current outstanding balance (not as important if you pay it off every month)

    This shouldn't be too personal a data and then we all can see how high we could go. If you post as just
    a) XXX
    b) XXX

    then it would be quick and easy to see.

    I'll start:

    a) £54
    b) £1456 ( I pay off total balance every month)
  • a) £1.11

    b) £35

    I only started using it 20 Nov 06 thought!

    A. £60.76

    B. £0.00 Paid in full every month otherwise it defeats the point of having a moneyback card.

    Only use it for Diesel and Food.

    I'm not sure I see the relevance of that? If we're looking at what happens when the 5k limit is hit, surely you need the total spend on the card since it was issued?

  • Good point. Also these suggestions don't seem to allow for at the beginning when a lot of us had cashback after a couple of weeks in the form of it being credited back against our purchases. This had been a change from the beginning which led us to believe we would get a cheque twice a year, the first one after the first six months of opening the card. Now it will be credited in the above way and not by cheque.

    Ok then.

    The idea was to see what was the most cashback anybody has had and maximum credit they have spent and still recieve 3% cashback on it, as alot of people seem to be wondering when this might come to the end/ the limits of this card.

    a = Total cashback since recieved card
    b = Total spend since recieved card

    A = £71.58 (£46.77 Current Cashback + £24.81 previously 03/09/06)
    B = £2,402.47

    So looks like 3% on all spends :confused:

    I do mainly use it for Food & Petrol - But also have £280 car service, meals out, online purchases. I also have pay in full each month.
