What effort? How much effort does it take to register?
I don't get this place sometimes. The CSR is praised to high heaven for earning 4.5% rebate (on aa $450 annual fee card), but when the Surpass (neigh Ascend) gives you a chance to earn 6.4% rebate it is considered mediocre (on a $95 annual fee card).
