on an aside. i already has a PC points card and checked it but it doesn't have the 20,000 points that i was supposed to get added to it. anyone know how to check up on that???

Yes, it's an e-gift card that gets sent via email. Took several weeks to get mine for signing up to Tangerine. But I eventually got it. Just be patient. |

Yes, be patient with the gift card. Mine was for Cineplex and it took about 6 weeks.

Just applied for the PC World Elite, that's a good card with no annual fee. I've been shopping at Loblaws' stores, as my new neighbourhood has mostly those. Guess it's time to start collecting PC Plus points.

RBC cards are terrible imo. Their rewards point system is a joke.

What's a good cash back credit card that's currently out? I've had the MBNA smartcash one for ages and it was great back in the day. Am I out of the loop or is this still the best one?

There are four coupons, each worth 5,000 pts.

Certain times of the year they allow to to transfer from Avion to BA miles x 1.5. My mom was able to transfer about 100k points into a Business/Firstclass flights from Victoria to Johannesburg (Return). Hell of a deal. I wasted mine on a couple trips in mexico in economy  Now switched to BMO World Elite MasterCard.

My wife has the TD app on her phone and whenever she purchases something using our card it notifies here immediately. It was jarring at first but it's literally 10s after purchasing you get a notification.
That said, I didn't check to see if it posts in the pending list as well.

I used the MBNA Smart Cash Mastercard for years. Then a few months ago we received the new TD VISA cards in the mail and there was no option to stay with Mastercard.
(TD purchased MBNA back in 2011: TD buys MBNA's Canadian credit card business - Business - CBC News )
We canceled it because we wanted to have a Mastercard for use at Costco.
A couple months ago we switched to Tangerine Mastercard. 2% back on 3 categories and 1% on back on everything else. 4% on the 3 categories for the first 3 months. No annual fee. So far so good.

Damn, Tangerine transactions show right away?
CIBC doesn't even show pending transactions. I have to wait like 3-4 business days before the shit even shows up.
