One of the Best ...
September 26, 2017
I use a limited number of credit cards on a daily basis. For me to use a card, it has to have great customer service, be widely accepted where I do business, have great rewards and must be a company that's fair and that I trust ... the Discover card knocks it out of the ball park on all counts.
The Discover card is easy to use, customer service is outstanding, the rewards are some of the best ... no waiting to reach a certain level to redeem rewards and they are always there when you need help.
