I was also curious with the Escape card. I noticed it, but from reading this board and some others, I never really heard anything about it. I would also be interested in hearing now easy it is to get the certificates. I seems like a pretty simple program. 10,000 points for a $100 certificate. Seems like kind of the standard right now. The bonus 25,000 and 2/1 for all purchases seems pretty solid.

These may be dumb questions, but on the SPG card, can you transfer those points to a mileage account? Also, is there a way to have my mortgage payment paid from one of these cards to get the points? I would think they would have to issue some kind of purchase check I send in to my mortgage holder.
