extra 2% Cashback Bonus- Discover Card Feb. 9/Sat.

Quote from kalender : I could never understand the reason for the need of signing up for extra rewards. Why do they not just send us an email just to make us aware of this event and let us get the reward with no need for sign up ??? Anyone knows a reason?

I think more people need to write to Discover and ask for emails, so they might change things. I complained about not being told I had offers available and got a reply something like "we may not always let you know about special offers..." They said they would send my suggestion to another department, but I'm sure they aren't going to change things only for me, so it would be nice if at least everyone reading this thread would make a complaint too. I know they do it so they won't have to pay out as much, assuming people who could have signed up and don't, will still use the card and get the lower tier bonus. But I think they underestimate the amount of people like us who don't use Discover except on days with 2% or more bonus. Otherwise I use a Chase Freedom for 1%.
