Default cash back credit card

getting fed up.

I pay the full balance every month.

I don't want special designs, introductory offers, I just want a cash back credit card that is not american express as I would like to actually be able to use it.

Many I see start at x% then either drop or climb to y%. Most tend to drop.

I think abbeynational cash back might suit, but that is 0.5% on first 500 then 1% thereafter. Not sure if it is first £500 of every bill.

Does anyone have any little known cards that do a good deal?

morgan stanely is still just an introductory offer.

and the 2% is the first £2000, not £2000 every month.

Still better than egg rate, but egg does look appealing.

Ive got one of these and have been very happy with it.

As said the 2% is an introductory offer (Im sure it was only 2% for the first month or something when I got mine), but its still 1% after that which is better than most others.

I think there is one that offers 2.5% cashback - Barcleycard Platinum I think, but I seem to remember reading you need a very very good credit rating, and genuinely high income, not just the ok-good credit rating and 25k/yr+ income you need for most Platinum cards.

Just the one I have had for a while now ......... it still beggars belief why anyone would have - say, a Barclaycard - because they are collecting POINTS!!

Collect CASH!!!! It's much more satisying
