[QUOTE] They did give me a book of credit card cheques when I first got the card, but have never used them. The special ones turn up as part of a printed letter (you only get about 4 or 5) with details of the special rates. I think it's aimed at getting you to do balance transfers and the like too.[/QUOTE] Yeah, mine arrive every now and then like that but I just shred them since the ones I get always include a sneaky little bit about a 2% fee. I guess you and Champ are just lucky. Shame, 1% cashback on a house purchase would have been quite something :-)
