- It seems like there has been conflicting information reported here
- regarding the Ford card and its cash-back details.
-
- I have the (an) application in front of me and it says "automatic 0.5%
- rebate on every purchase you make, but it becomes a 1.5% rebate ... in
- any month when you have carried forward any part of your balance from
- the previous month."
-
- Perhaps the graduated scheme that I saw reported here earlier was
- intended to apply to the Discover card? If so, would someone please
- either email (or repost) the scheme? A simple analysis could say
- if you purchase less than $X per month on your card, then use the Ford
- for its wider recognition (VISA/Mastercard) but if you spend > $X then
- use the Discover card.
