I have had my American Express Starwood card for about 10 years. It is an American Express card that allows you to earn points for stays at any Starwood property (W, Westin, Regis, Sheraton, etc)-- or, you can convert your points to miles. I am hooked and use it to buy nearly EVERYTHING! — — How you earn points. — You earn 1 point for every dollar spent and then double points when staying at a Starwood property. It seems that I somehow manage to accumulate a lot of points every year. — Annual Percentage — To be honest, I dont check out the annual… read full review »

The ultimate miles/points earnings card

One of two known cards that let you earn >1 mile/point per dollar spent. Well, to be truthful, you do earn only one point per dollar spent on regular purchases. The advantage that moves this to 1.25 miles per dollar spent is when you redeem for frequent flyer miles in 20,000 point increments. At that redemption level Amex moves 25,000 miles into the slected frequent flyer account. Other highly worthwhile advantages to the card are a reasonable annual fee, and the warranty extension offer. All purchases made using the card get their warranty doubled up to one additional year, at no add'l… read full review »

As per the frequent flyer gurus, this is a great card for someone who loves to travel. You earn extra points if you use this at starwood properties. Starwood allows you to transfer the points to airlines and if you transfer 20,000 points usually at a 1:1 mile ratio, you actually get 25,000. I don't pay attention to interest rates since I pay the balance in full each month. Better yet, if you charge a certain amount each year, you automatically qualify for gold starwood preferred guest status, so if you are a business traveler like me, it qualifies you for various… read full review »

My Favorite Credit Card.

on a strict budget

FEB

2008

I love this card because we love to use Starpoints. We are middle class and can't usually afford nice hotels to stay in. But using Starpoints, we always have a classy place to stay and the kids love it! I'm glad there is a way to earn Starpoints without having to spend extra money. I just use my card and voila! every few months, we've earned another night. The only thing I don't like is the annual fee (which I have never had to pay on a credit card before) and the fact that some places don't accept American… read full review »
