I haven't heard any shutdown stories of other Barclaycard products unless they also had the A+.
I've been increasingly worrying about WMBP. I use a Suntrust debit (earns skypesos) and pay chase accounts in full each month (anywhere from $500 -$3500 per account). Been doing this for a couple of years. No MS on these cards and only occasional payments prior to statement closing (but not b/c cycling...I'm just there and so get the payment over with). My only other payment source is ACH from Suntrust checking via Chase website.

This hobby can really become an addiction. I think I need someone to just tell me to stop. Be firm.
