- Yesterday I received something in the mail from FORD regarding my VISA
- card. They are supposedly upgrading it to some form of VISA gold card but
- the killer is that they are cancelling the rebate program (1.5% on all
- purchases). Has anyone else received this same letter or am I unique
- (e.g., are they only doing this to people who pay it off fully every month
- like I do)? Without the rebate the card loses it appeal when compared to
- the GM or GE cards.
