On bogleheads and on any bank card overview web site, the Wells Fargo 2% money again bank card appears to be a long-standing favourite. The PNC card has all the identical advantages (for a boglehead who pays the steadiness in full every month). The one distinction I can discover is that the PNC card doesn’t have a overseas transaction payment, in contrast to Wells Fargo.
Or is there another crimson flag I’m not noticing? One thing that retains it from being a winner?
I ask as a result of I simply signed up for the PNC card and plan to eliminate my Wells Fargo card. (I journey abroad lots, so overseas transaction charges are an enormous deal to me.)

The one subject I’ve with Citi Double Money is that they do 1% once you spend, and 1% once you pay. I wish to pay my invoice after the assertion date, and should pay the Citi double money earlier than the assertion Date if I need the complete 2% within the present month. I want the citi double money would simply do the complete 2% once you spend.
