Rogers Platinum MASTERCARD Consumer Reviews

I have a number of cards but I've noticed this one wins out most of the time. Why? It's got very wide acceptance and the 1.75 percent is pretty darn hard to beat. The foreign exchange program is excellent. So, I say it's a winner.

I really don't get why all the other negative reviews are for. I've had a Rogers Credit card for 2 years now and the card has only been declined once. When I called into customer service they quickly discovered the issue and explained it to me (my fault, CC number had changed and I left the old number in a recurring amazon payment long after it was discontinued. They said the issue would be resolved the next day and it was). Apart from that, it's a great card. No fee, 1.75% cashback on every purchase, 4% cashback on foreign purchases (great for business trips to the US that get re-reimbursed) and the money back can be used on any purchase, any time. It's no longer tied to Rogers' bills. Can request the cash back right within the Rewards app, otherwise, it's a little tricky. But who doesn't use a phone app these days?

I've been using the card for 4 months. I've charged about $15000 on the card and I've racked up about $350 of cash back. I do not deal with Rogers for my cell phone or cable. Therefore, in early December I will contact CSR to request applying the cash back to my January statement... We'll see? The only decline so far is Hertz car rental for the security deposit. I use my PC credit card for this. When I return the car, I just settle the bill with my Rogers card. Works fine. I've used the card across Canada and the US... works great!
