    Not only is it unclear I'm not sure if this can legally count as a notice of variation of the Terms and Conditions (does anyone know?)

    I don't recall having seen any other notification.

  • I'll be keeping mine but wiill only use for fuel, as originally planned. Like others, I'm on the lookout for another card for other purchases. As I have used my £5,000 at 3%, this card will be relegated to the back of my wallet until the 3% is available again.

    Does the 3% return when I have held the card for a year?

    :)

    At least they gave us the two cashback payments at the full 3 per cent rate.

    Fair play to them for doing that. A very nice surprise.

    I have earned just short of £300 cashback since getting the card which means that I have spent almost £10,000 on it! That's a scary thought but I did use the card to pay for a £4,000 holiday (saved up in advance) so it's not as bad as it sounds and yes, I have paid everything off in full each month.

    Nice while it lasted! Now which card shall I switch to next?

    Hmm...I still haven't received my December statement. When does the Jan payment have to be in by? Is it around the 15th?

    Perhaps GE discovered their little cash back error by visiting this site and hearing us all gloat about it! :>

    Payments must arrive by Thursday 11th January 2007, according to my GE Money CC statement. I received my statement last week.
    Please call me 'Kazza'.

    Morgan Stanley Platinum or Amex Platinum. Both 3% for an introductary period. I recommend Morgan Stanley. :)

    More likely that they discovered it straight away but it's taken until now to tweak their system to correct it. Note how long it's taken to provide on line access, which was promised around October.
