There is no way I would get a Chase card. That bank is a rip off! I'll
stick with my 5% discount at Target.

I love my Chase card. They are the only bank that5 sends me an email
whenever an online or phone charge is put through. They also alert me
to any charges over $200 (or whatever amount one wants).

Mine gives me air miles on United. I get one bag checked for free when
I charge my United flights on that card (and double miles) and I get
priority boarding and two tickets per year to the United Lounge. Since
there is only one way to get to Houston International Airport, United, I
fly with them.

I'm using miles for my trip from Singapore (where the cruise ends) to
Tokyo and from Tokyo home. I still have plenty left for other travel.

Even if I don't want to accumulate air miles any more, I'll switch to
another form of Chase card. I really like the ability to monitor my
account that they give me.

Couldn't you keep the card and tell them that you want to switch to
cash back?

It would be a different card. Mine is called a United Mileage Plus

I had a Chase card for many years, with a rate of 5.99%, which was
perfectly reasonable for a stable, married couple with stellar credit
histories. Then, about 6 or 7 years ago, they raised the rate. I
called them, and we agreed that I would cut up the card, and could pay
off the balance at 5.99%, as long as I made at least the minimum payments
every month. Before the end of the day, I'd gotten an HSBC GM Rewards
card at 6.99, and that ended up knocking $1,000 off the price of the Chevy
I bought a few years ago. The interest rate really doesn't matter anymore
though, because we pay it off every month. Since I doubt that I will ever
again buy another GM car, I really should get a better rewards card, like
Amtrak.

Chase has a fabulous selection of credit cards and over the years I
have found their customer service to be top notch.

I like my Chase. I've received a few thousand bucks back in rebates. Beats paying cash, huh? No annual fee either, What's not to like?

Their cus. svc. is pretty much tops too.

I recommend setting up Auto Pay. The full balance is deducted from my
checking account on the day it is due. I get maximum float, and I don't
have to worry about getting the payment there in time.

I have all my monthly charges on auto pay. Either to a credit card or to a
bank account.

I've just learned that Medicare Part B will only auto pay to a bank
account. If I want the 1250 annual frequent flyer miles I will have to send
it in four times a year.

For the pittance a checking acct is paying now, it's hardly worth letting the cc bl ride until the due date. IOW, what's a months interest on, say, a couple of thousand dollars? My checking account is right now paying a quarter of a percent. Ha.

I'd still rather order that payment myself, rather that take a chance on an overbilling getting paid by autopay. I assume that you do scrutinize that CC account for errors.

Of course I check. There is NO downside to Auto Pay. If you call in advance
of the pay date, they change the pay amount. If you call afterwards, you
get a credit towards the next payment.

It is quite nice having NO monthly bills to pay. I have quarterly real
estate taxes to pay. And now quarterly Medicare. And all annual ones.

Downside: I read about a reclusive woman whose body was found many months after she died. It seemed that autopay kept the utilities going etc. and no one ever checked on her.

Dont' get me wrong - I have a lot of things on autopay too - but NOT the credit card as that amount can vary widely from month to month.

Well, my tenants would notice if I were dead. The garbage wouldn't get
taken out. My mail would pile up at the top of the first flight of stairs
where they leave it. Then the smell. I leave my doors open. The smell would
go down the stairwell into their hall.

True. That is why I have the credit card come out of my savings account.
You do have to be careful. You are limited to six savings account
electronic debits per month before they charge you a fee. Hence I do all
savings to checking transfers at the ATM.

I pay all my credit card bills off each month. I am flying from
Singapore to Tokyo and from Tokyo home to way-south Texas on miles from
my Chase card and about $75 in taxes. One checked bag is free and I
have priority boarding on all United flights I purchase with my Chase card.

They could charge 50% and I wouldn't care because it's paid off at the
end of the month. We get card offers all the time for 12-18 months of
no interest charges and that's how we make big purchases and pay them
off over time, interest free.

I guess I'm lucky. No limit on the number of autopayts. with MY bank.

Why aren't you making the transfers by phone or online? Anything to save driving somewhere, is my motto.

Nope. The limit of six electronic debits from a savings account is a
federal regulation. There is no limit from a checking account.

>Why aren't you making the transfers by phone or online? Anything to save driving somewhere, is my motto.

I don't own a car. I walk or bicycle. I do pay my quarterly real estate
taxes by online transfer. But making transfers still requires paying
attention to the bills coming in. With auto pay they can be ignored, until
I periodically reconcile my accounts. Like I'm doing right now for the past
half year.

Don't run a CAR? You MUST be in the bucks, then. Ha. (Are you single? Paying child support? I know some interesting single women....)

Reg D only allows 6 transfers. If you make more than that you are hit with
huge fees. I learned this the hard way. I thought my car payments were set
up for automatic with my husband's bank. Nope. And he then refused to pay
so I had to. I didn't have enough money in checking so I paid it from
savings. I was hit with two fees. One for the payment and one for the
$5.95 charge that Ford credit hit me with just for making the payment!

Most people won't ever have to pay this because most people are not stupid
enough to put their direct deposit into savings. My money does go into
checking. Husband's does not. Autopayments do not count. Our mortgage is
an autopayment.

I just use them for the credit card. My checking/ATM card is with
another bank which charges NO ATM fees, even for withdrawals from
foreign banks.

My grandmother wanted to pay all of her bills, in person and she wanted
a receipt, since she never learned how to drive, I would drive her. I am
like you, but I would not argue with her, she was my grandmother.

The discussion is about the Chase credit card, right? I have yet to
figure out where the ATM enters into it.

Most people seem to be a tad more savvy than you-know-who. High ATM
fees? Don't use the ATM. Not being happy with them as a bank? How
about don't bank there.

I got a debit card from Chase and I told the woman I'd never used an ATM, she said she hadn't either.
