I got a BOA card when I had to get a new local bank - I liked that they matched it for the first three months, but when all was said and done, I probably would have been better off going with a card that had a $50 bonus. I guess I thought I spent more than I actually did! But I tried to make the most of it by always charging a penny more when I bought gas (i.e. $20.01) - then I figured they were matching my $.99 every time I filled up!
Now that the match is over, I still have the card because I have been quite pleased with the bank otherwise - and it is very close to my work, so it is convenient for me to bank there. I don't keep much money in my savings account there, so I don't worry about the low interest. Our higher balance acct. is at HSBC.
