Just opened today's mail Amazon card has arrived ! £10,000 limit spend spend spend as someone once said..🎄🎄🎄

I got mine as well £7500 limit

Just set it all up on line £40 credit already showing on account. 😁

Noticed yesterday they are giving £50 now

Have to get another for SWMBO..😁

If they are giving away free money I might get another too ... just to use on the rare occasions I buy from Amazon 

.   


Crazy not too , the credit is valid for 10 years according to the info supplied to me so no rush to purchase anything ! Will order one for SWMBO today .

I keep setting the payment option to my old card and they keep changeing it back to use thier own.

They don't give you money for nowt, the whole idea is to use their card for purchases on Amazon. If you pay it off in full each month, it makes no difference to you.

But I get cashpack on my existing card, hence would prefer to permanently use that.

Then don't apply for Amazon's card.

I didn't.

Mind you, my last conversation with Amazon might have ended with me suggesting a dark place to insert their wares....

The reason Amazon are offering £20 for any Mastercard and £40 for their own brand is all to do with credit card fees. They offer more money for their own because they hope you won't settle in full each month and, therefore, pay interest.

Has Al been talking to you?

You obviously didn't understand my point. Any credit card provider would like you to pay interest, that's mostly how they make money, but I'm not saying anyone should pay interest.

I knew what you meant .... I spend loads on my cards each month but neither providers get any interest off me.

Al thinks though that all credit card holders will end up paying some interest at some time or other because their life will fall apart between payments.

Could/might... 

Although I did also say that it's a move on Amazon's part to ensure that you use their facilities to purchase their tat and ensure total world domination. At your expense.

Hence the 'I told you so.'

All set up two cards mine & one for SWMBO  £80  credit thanks very much & we will never pay a penny in interest, I didn't get where I am today by turning down easy money ( honestly of course) 😁😁😁

[Mr Skrunts]

Same with me.

Because of the changes I was glad as I spend far too much on Amazon.

I know I will be buying from them again, but the challenge is how long will I resist using the new card.


Plus as Martin Lewis says.   I allways pay my card off in full every month (No Charges)

[Rangie]

Well done easy to do , always pay in full every month as well DD ensures that..👍
