just got my egg card. is it the cashback one ?

Hi
About a week or so ago i applied for the egg money cashback credit card.
I was accepted and i got it through the post today. Great !

But when looking at the card and all the paper work that come with it there is nothing stating anything about cashback.

The card is green ( Master card ) and has ' Egg Money ' written on it.
Any ideas ?

  • Egg Money is the cashback one.

    We've just had one of these too, £12 cashback in the 1st month - we're taking it to Florida soon so we'll be getting plenty more!

    if you are using a CC abroad you will probably be better off with a nationwide CC as they do not make a foreign currency charge (usually 2-3 % and far out weighing the 1% cashback)

    And if you need money over there, you'd be even better of with a Nationwide debit card which doesn't charge for cash withdrawals (presuming you don't go overdrawn. They charge a %age, as do all CC's for withdrawing cash, Stirling or foreign.)

    Can I ask you if you received a confirmation in the mean time? I applied and got accepted last Friday (exactly a week ago), but since, haven't received any sort of confirmation and was starting to wonder what happens.... I printed all the credit agreement pages, etc but not the acceptance page, thinking I would receive an e-mail confirmation.
    thanks

    Don't think you need to panic it just takes a few days. In fact you should try logging into your account to see credit limit etc before the card arrives!

    but to see my account onlne, don't I need my card number? Without it, it says "You have no Egg accounts to display at this time". Anyway, not panicking (yet), but was surprised by the absence of confirmation.
    Thanks
