  • Just wondering if anyone has received their new Amazon cards yet? My husband and I received the letter saying the points scheme was closing but haven't received new cards yet.

    I haven't - the main reason I keep coming back to this thread is to see whether other people have had their points/new cards yet.

    I haven't received a card either.

    Same reason for me, I was hoping the card would be here by now.
  • Well, you can continue to use the Amazon card until the MBNA card arrives.
  • My card finally arrived today, a couple of weeks after the branding and card number on the online service site changed.

    Did they send you any details of your points?
  • Now that I've lost my amazon card, I just want a simple 0.5% cashback (or amazon vouchers) mastercard with contactless. It seems like these are my 3 options.

    Aqua reward - simple 0.5% - is it contactless though?
    Natwest cashback plus - 0.5% (and sometimes more) but £24 annual fee
    Capital one classic extra - 0.5% (+£10 pa) - low £1500 limit though? Is it contactless?

    What do you all think? Any other alternatives?

    I've gone for MBNA more rewards, 1% on AmEx and 0.5% on Visa. It is vouchers though (not Amazon), but for Argos, Love2shop, Currys, Next, WH Smith amongst others.

    If you shop at the retailers, possibly worth it and a little better than the 0.5% cashback.

    Sorry if this has been asked/answered before but I couldn't find it in the thread.

    I was expecting any remaining points on 30/9/2014 to be sent as an amazon voucher via email. I've not received anything yet and as I've just had my first statement from mbna (which doesn't include any reward point info) I presume I'm not getting a reward card and will be ringing to close the account tomorrow.

    Has anyone had their final Amazon voucher?
