Had a chat with a banker yesterday about the regular Freedom card with all the discontinuation rumors.
Take this with a grain of salt, but she said they will most likely discontinue offering Freedom soon and those who already have it will be grandfathered with all the category benefits.
Kind of like what happened to the discontinued sallie mae 5% grocery/gas card I reckon.
So, I'd recommend getting one as soon as you can or PC one of your cards to freedom if you're able just in case.
