    Rogers always had a fee, but the cash back should be greater than the fee.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    I just noticed my Rogers Bank World Elite card has been charging a transaction fee on USD transactions.

    Currency USD
    Purchase Amount 220.50
    Exchange Fee 6.90
    Conversion Rate 1.282811791
    Total CAD 282.86

    Paypal quoted ~$269CAD for this same transaction. Is this card now a dud or is it me that is the dud? lol
    Dunno WtF is going on, there.
    They said there's a $6.90 fee but they didn't charge it?!?

    More on Triangle WE card...
    All my last month's purchases were at grocery stores and it actually gives you 3% back in CT$. That's pretty fuckin amazing for a card with zero fee.
    I knew there was something about groceries on this card, but I'm amazed it's that good!


    *Costco and Walmart are obviously exempt. They're not really grocery stores, so I think that's fair.

    I'd probably have to go with Triangle World Elite Mastercard as the best widely available no-fee credit card for Canadians. In addition to the free roadside assistance that's been mentioned many times (https://roadsideassistance.canadiant...ld-member-plan) something I haven't seen mentioned in this thread is that you can "stack" your CT money rewards with myHusky rewards if you purchase fuel at Husky stations. Admittedly myHusky rewards is pretty lousy (~0.5% cashback) but you earn this on top of the $0.05 in CT money per litre when using the Triangle World Elite Mastercard for fuel purchases with the at Husky. You do get $0.05 CT money per litre with the Triangle World Elite Mastercard when filling up at Canadian Tire, but the extra ~0.5% cashback from myHusky rewards is only attainable at Husky locations. I find this a good option for refueling when I'm driving rental cars elsewhere in Canada. And yeah, I always use the Triangle World Elite Mastercard (along with an Airmiles card) for grocery purchases at one of the Safeways near my place.

    Has anyone been invited onto the Triangle Select Program?

    Made the TWE Mastercard even more valuable.

    IIRC, it was a 79.99 yearly subscription, that included CRAVE for a year, a welcome gift up to the value of $120 and all sorts of extra stackable CT Money offers, plus something like 10% CT money back on your biggest purchase of the year

    That does sound decent, but I doubt I'm spending enough on that card to qualify. I'm keeping it to CT Umbrella stores and groceries, so far.

    I literally put everything thru it, so that's probably why they sent me the invite...

    Here's a shot of what my members area says:

    Has anyone used the roadside assistance from the triangle cards? Any comparison between them and AMA or other manufacturer-provided roadside assistance plans in terms of service, ease of use etc? Trying to make this comparison for a friend, and honestly thinking about tt for myself too, since I don't have an RV to worry about, I don't really need to renew my AMA plus RV membership.

    I've used Triangle Roadside assistance a few times across Canada - battery boost and flatbed tow. The Triangle World Elite includes free Gold Member Plan and its details can be found here: https://roadsideassistance.canadiant...ld-member-plan

    It's 5 assistance calls per year based on your anniversary date (mine is sometime this month). It has never been a Canadian Tire branded truck dispatched for any of my calls - they seem to contract out services to local providers. They are available 24/7 and I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for my call to be answered. Canadian Tire is however a bit old fashioned in how they do things - I'm making a claim through their reimbursement policy right now and nothing can be done online - it is all done by mail via their PO box in Welland. You also can't seem to book things in advance with them - bookings/availability are only verified when you call, and there is nothing to view service times online.

    A few times now, once for a boost, once for a pull out of a ditch and once for a tow

    Card member is covered regardless of the vehicle owner, which is useful for winter beaters of family and friends, but they don't cover the same thing twice on the same vehicle

    Again, never had a Can-Tire branded truck, once was Citywide and once was A1 iirc. The ditch pull was in Wabasca-Demarais and it was just local hick with a truck who came.

    I can see why the bookings thing would be called for, since they just use whoever is closest, but I didn't realise they did the reimbursement thing through mail...not the best in these unprecedented times

    Also don't remember seeing the part about 5 callouts per year, will need to look at my member pack again. All i remember was the "not the same thing twice on the same car"

    Just primary. Triangle doesn't give joint accounts, only authorised users on the same account.

    Wife would need her own TWEM

    Anyone have the Infinite Avion Privilege card thru RBC? Comes with some good perks but the main one I'm looking at is the 1.25 points for every dollar spent.

    I currently have the Infinite Avion card with 176,000 points. If I had the privilege card since the start, that total would be 220,000 points. Quite a jump with just that extra quarter point.

    Or am I focusing on the wrong thing here? Should I be looking at Amex instead?

    Annual fee is $399, little less with the RBC account holder rebate.
    Looking around
    Wondering what became
    Of what I once knew
