BARCLAYCARD cashback 1% drop 0.35%

Just had a letter in today from Barclaycard cashback,
They have just Changed there cashback policy.
I was on 1% for £200 Then 0.5 after.
I roughly spent £200/£ 400 monthy + or - (paid monthly)
Now they have changed this to (base my monthly spend) = only to 0.35% what a total insult, I phone them: not much they could do but understood that this was an unfair change.
In other words to get my 1% back i would have to spend £1,500 a month. No way!
Total useless cashback card, I am now looking to capital one 1% on every spend. There is an anual fee: £18.00, but every January you get a Bouns credit £10.00, so only £8.00.
In this case it is the principal of how barclaycard think of thier customers, to give a rate so poor, when you pay your credit card off every month. They punish instead. Time to move on.
Any other better cards, please let me know.
Not amex as not many places accecpt this.

Then plug your spend into the cashback calculator.
The Virgin Charity card, at 0.8%, might be a good option with your low monthly spend, being as there aren't any annual fees.0
