Most miles for Utilities?

I'm struggling finding this, I've seen it somewhere, but now I'm having a lapse of where?

Out of the following cards, does anyone know which provides the most miles/points toward Utilities?

Amex PRG
Chase Sapphire Preferred
Chase Ink BOLD business
CO PP MC
Citi AA Visa or "Amex"

I saw it somewhere that it was 2X for Utilities, but darn it if I'm not a loss for seeing it now as I look through their sites.

Thanks for any help!

(feel free to redirect this thread if its not in the right place)

I mean in general, permanently.

For example: AMEX PRG gives 3X points for airlines, 2X points for gas and groceries.

I thought one of these had more than 1 mile/point per dollar on utility payments?

I do know that the Hilton HHonors AMEX has a 6X reward for Utilities.

Only for "home and wireless phone, cable and satellite TV, and Internet service providers." Not for electric or other utilities.

Also, those 6x points don't normally have 1 for 1c value. Usually it takes 25K to 30K for a $100 or so room. Though, I scored two nice days at 12.5K each in Los Almos area, likely due to occupancy being down due to a large fire that had closed the Natl park the week before my arrival. That worked out great for me and my travels. So sometimes they are 1 for 1c.

Right now I am using Chase AARP card which gives 5% back on everything for 6 months. That is very hard to beat with anything other than promotional bonuses on other cards.
