I have had the occasion to call Comentity cust service a few times, and I think they have been GREAT..far better than Barclays. I called yesterday to confirm the 25k elevate point offer, and it had been previously noted in my account.
So, wait for a good offer if you want to, but the card works pretty much as advertised. The 5k transaction limit (not a daily limit, a transaction limit) might bother some, but I havent found much to spend $5k on in one transaction.
I haven't gotten *any* offers to apply for this card!
About the card: The name and account number is just printed on the card and not embossed like a normal credit card?
EDIT: Actually, I could see why it wouldn't be. The machines that emboss cards are probably not capable of doing it with the card in a vertical orientation, and if it were, the embossment of the card would interfere with the magnetic stripe which is still horizontal.
