REVIEW:
Great for the balance transfer option, but you should note that this card doesn't really 5% savings on all gas purchased, it's more of 5% for the first 100 liters or so. 1% applies after that, but it refreshes every month.
I definitely would recommend this card to a friend.

The card is great if only for its 5% cashback bonus to buy gas and to repair your car. Instant approval was advertised, but I didn't get it, still this card is great!

REVIEW:
Reply to Sandra Williams from Portland: Dear Sandra, as a customer you shouldn't be concerned about hackers and identity thief's. Instant approval is convenient way to get approval especially when you need money in case of emergency. Hackers can apply for any credit cards if they have someone social security number and some form of ID. Again, there is nothing to do with instant approval offers.
I definitely would recommend this card to a friend.

Does auto "Maitanance" differ from auto "Repair"?

REVIEW:
As the major benefit of this card is about its cash back on gas & auto maitanance, I am concerned if there is any reason "maitanance", instead of "repair" is used. Does that mean spending $1000 on car repairing would not count as the 5% cash back?
I definitely would recommend this card to a friend.
