I used my UA Visa Platinum (or Select - dont quite recall when I product-changed) quite a bit for everyday charges before I joined the UR system with the CSP and later CSR. Why? For one, I wanted the 5000 or 10000 EQM.Originally Posted by findark
It's all in the marketing spin though - using your airline branded CC was still a bad idea back in 2014. People did it despite it not being in their financial self-interest, and they keep doing it now.
But also it had a (for those days) pretty decent earnings structure:
3X UA
2X grocery stores, dining, gas, and home improvement stores
2X Star Alliance purchases
1X everywhere else
Back in 2014, I would take 2X UA over 2% cashback all day long.
