Credit card reward cap got me!

September 3rd, 2007 at 11:29 pm

I have a $300 cap on credit card rewards on my main credit card. I usually do a good job of switching to another credit card when I hit the cap, but I got caught. I was still charging to the same credit card even though I hit the annual cap sometime in July. I'm ticked off.. that was about $30 in wasted rewards!!!

It doesn't help that the monthly bill doesn't mention anything about how much in rewards points you've accumulated for the year... Just how much you've spent. An ethical CC company (I know -- there is no such thing.) would make it clearer that you're not accumulating any more points this year.

    I've been trying to think of a good way to keep track of rewards on ccs. Any of you clever people have a good system you want to share?

    All of our cards list the reward points earned each month on the statement. I can also check them online. If I got a statement showing no points earned, I'd know right away.
