I am currently interested to get my 3rd credit card (will cancel 1 of the old one tho after receiving it)
I have looked at these card, all from CitiBank Driver's Edge: 2% saving to a car in 5 years I am not sure if I will buy a car in 5 years. Chances are quite likely as I dont have a car now, just share it with my family. It is getting old (7 years). Enrich: 1% cash back Pure and simple, 1% cash back PetroPoints Mastercard 2 cents off gas is like 2% saving on gas. Plus I can use it for PC points which the reward rate is 1%. Other thing considered I want a Platinum card....... because I like that colour! Which one is suited for me? Or did I miss some other good one? Another question Currently I have a line of credit that I am not using (it is just here in case I really need money). Will that affect my chance of getting more credit ( in this case credit card)? |

i'm sure loc will do something bad when you are trying to get a new credit!
i tried to get the citi PetroPoints Mastercard card and get denied. i called them and ask why(i have 2 visa & 1 amex and pay in full each month), they told me i have too many credit! i bet they count my loc as part of my credit even i never want to use it and it's pre-approved for me!

yes, loc counts as credit. i'm applying for enrich. if i get $5000 limit, i can get enrich platinum, shouldn't be a problem i think. but citibank is very slow in processing applications, been 4 weeks now and haven't heard a thing. i guess it will be another week at least.

I have a drivers edge platinum....gives me an excuse to get another car in a few years
2% is still double what the enrich offers. I'd rather get the 2%. Petro seems ok, but that's ONLY when you buy gas right? Do you get points for your normal purchases through the credit card? |
