    Of course you do.

    what happened to your 2021 Dell XPS that you’re still presumably paying off?

    Pulse card arrived today, not a nice branded card, much less premium as Amazon card.

    What do you mean by "not a nice branded card", and why is that a problem?

    IMO. there are much more important questions - things like:
    • is it accepted by retailers? (Pulse is a MasterCard, so that won't be a problem)
    • is the credit limit enough for my needs?
    • How good is the online account management?
    • How good is the card issuer's admin?
    ...and so on. My own experience over the last couple of years is that the Amazon card has been fine, as has NewDay's admin. Everything has ticked along nicely for me. I have no reason to expect to be at all unhappy with my Pulse card when I do get it.

    The bottom line, though, is that if you don't like anything about a credit card, including your perception of the branding, you can always close your account and, if you still need a credit card, apply for another.

    I liked Amazon Card design, only viewed Pulse from envelope for a few secs.
    Choice of colours seems rather conspicuous.
    As I used Amazon for a few Amazon purchases.
    Then closing Pulse could be a very valid option.
    Considering reducing a few cards early 2023.

    So it would seem. Very strange priorities, I'd say.

    With the number you intimate that you have - that would be an eminently good idea :)

    Going to be 2023 to return to Nat West cards, though I can close 2 other cards very soon, maybe Chrome, Aqua during 2022.
    Then medium balances early '23 towards Natwide and VM.
