They treat you a lot better with AAA credit and have net assets to cover. In fact, they kiss your tail. Poor credit types they don't want. |

TD, BNS, National, RBC would say no. Guess I'll try my own bank...CIBC. The only reason I got mixed up with that crappy yank bank was way back when Canada Trust merged with TD and sold off their credit card business to Citibank. CIBC has three different types of cards and yes...one does pay back at a paltry rate of 1%. (no yearly fee) |
