okay heres my deal...i want a card with a significant sign on bonus. I am also planning on transfering my other balances to this card so I would prefer a card that gives miles for balance transfers. I will use the credit card frequently at the locations listed in the question but 9/10 I will pay it off immediately. I am not really sure about the hotel deal but obviously if I want to travel they would come in handy down theline. I would just love to save miles all year that way I can travel in my summers off, proably in coach. I definately do NOT want an annual fee and I do keep a balance one my cards but I try my best to keep them low. I was thinking of the Amtrak card because I use Amtrak often however I usually fly US Air and it seems like themiles do not transfer to them. If anyone could give me some suggestions as to which cards seems right for my situation I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks again to all that replied.

Please do your homework.

Nicole,

Please re-read the other thread. If you find that you need additional information after the search exercise, it's best to start a new post in the specific forum (Starwood possibly for their Amex, United for their Visa, etc.).
