  10,000 nTPs would be a bit more of an incentive…worth their weight in sustainable aviation fuel.

  Have entered nonetheless. Current credit and debit cards outside of Amex Plat not a great fit for my needs.

  Great competition. Thanks for sharing. I wouldn’t consider a debit card linked to my current account at all though. Credit cards give a safety bumper in a world of ever increasing fraud.

    True but lots of people have a secondary current account these days? I have a Chase in addition to my main with a high st bank that I was using for overseas spend and some cashback for when Amex/credit cards not accepted. Now that Chase are slashing cashback I am looking for an alternative. If the co-brand debit card could be linked to an account from Chase or another of the fintech banks then I’d have no problem with that as I’d just ‘top-up’ the underlying current account as needed. Feels a lot safer than e.g. Curve

      My Chase is empty unless I want to spend on the debit card. I have linked it to Curve and have it as the active card. Any fraudulent transactions will be declined.

      Alternatively when my curve cash balance is low I have curve cash as the active card, possibly safer as an offline transaction could still be approved on Chase sending it into unauthorised overdraft.

      Possibly poor programming from Curve, but I have noticed that when transactions are submitted later to the authorisation, and Curve cash is the active card, Curve seems to pay the transaction but only charges your curve cash the authorised amount… but refunds to curve cash are also dodgy

  Interestingly, Revolut is currently surveying some account holders about their views on Rev Points – what they like about them, whether you’d be interested in subscription plans and whether you’d pay to purchase them.

  I would imagine it’s either easyJet or a non uk airline looking at taking advantage of BAs decision to screw its members.

  Missing Finnair from survey

    Not really. Why would anyone want an Avios-earning Finnair card in the UK? Although oddly I suspect they can do it – I know Qatar is not blocked from launching a UK card.

      An Iberia card would be great as every 10 Avios earned would get you 1 TP up to 30% of what you need

      • LittleNick says:

        So in theory if this card were to exist let’s say it’s £1 spend = 1 avios
        So £10 spend = 1TP. £25k spend = 2500 TP. Potentially slightly better than BA if that were the case

        +1 think BA would get that blocked within IAG so far as a UK launch ia concerned

  Did the survey. I was a little disappointed not seeing GHA in the list of loyalty schemes (Maybe Other box to fill as well would be handy!). I mean, I had done surveys with GHA direct where the options offered also mention co-branded credit cards.
