    They send me a letter at least once a month offering cash back.

    How long have you been a cardholder and which card of theirs?

    Initial, had the card a year.

    Its a letter offering cash back and a balance transfer, literally every month.:D

    After a year, you've started getting the offer for the CB card I presume? I'm almost tempted to plumb for the Freedom Rewards and (if accepted) use that in the meantime. Sod's law says though they'll scrap the CB card before I become eligible to get offered it.

    They have not offered any sort of card upgrade or change.

    I started with a low credit limit, they have doubled it. From others with this card I know the limit can go up and up into the tens of thousands.

    Hmm, that sounds completely askew from what I thought you meant - I've probably misinterpreted your post re: cashback.

    Sorry, maybe I got it wrong, they send a letter every month offering cash back from my Barclaycard, which I can put into my bank account or on to another card.

    Ahh there's the confusion :) This thread is about a specific Barclaycard Cashback card (A duo Amex/Visa cardset). Interesting that they offer you cashback on the Initial card though.

    Thank you. Will give that a try tomorrow morning!

    How did you get on?
    I spent 25 years in the mobile industry, from 1994 to 2019. Worked for indies as well as the big networks, in their stores also in contact centres. I also hold a degree in telecoms engineering so I like to think I know what I’m talking about 😂

    I hope this card doesn't get cut soon too. But then surely they wouldn't accept transfers to it if they planned to scrap it soon.
