MBNA More Rewards Credit Card

greenlightluke

Hi MSE's I'm looking at maximising potential rewards from purchases.

I use my credit card for every thing and just pay it off at the end of the month, the MBNA More Rewards Credit Card caught my eye and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this card?

Double rewards for 90 days then 2 points per £1 on the AMEX card and 1 point per £1 on the VISA thereafter.

Sound good?

Thanks in advance

Its good if you need to buy things from argos as thats only place you can spend points

Maybe I'll pass - I can't remember the last time I shopped in Argos.
Thanks for the reply.

I find Argos good. They have a greater range of items than you think and prices are normally either the same if not cheaper than online, or a £1 or so more.

I have a Nectar card/credit card so buy a fair amount from there with points. The last thing was the GoPro 3 Black Edition - was cheaper than online and were one of the few places to actually have it in stock (probably because like I said you wouldn't imagine them to).

When did that change? on the website you can get vouchers for many retailers.. I know because just ordered £75 worth of Currys Vouchers..

So basically the AMEX version of this card offers 'near cash' at 4% during the first 90 days and 2% thereafter which sounds OK to me. The website doesn't seem that forthcoming on exactly what the points can be used for and what the 'exchange rate' is tho...

Russinating I note in your signerature you value Reward points at 2p each - what is this based on? Thanks

I get forced to use the hive4business web page when claiming rewards?
