These things are very unlikely to happen again. WF got hit with tons of fees and penalties and invested hefty in their risk compliance departments This whole thing sent a shockwave across the industry that also benefited banks' employees. Tellers don't need to aggressively cross sell bank product anymore.
Good all-rounder for those looking for a generalist card and better than Apple Card for merchants who don't take Apple Pay (there are a sizable bunch). Points are awarded monthly and with a $25 minimum for statement credit or check back (Direct Deposit isn't possible unless you have a bank account with them). Wells Fargo's latest pay with points option (I think inspired by Chase Pay Yourself Back) can get around this threshold - redemption is 1 cent to 1 point and points balance must cover the entire amount (no partial offsets). Cell Phone Protection is a good plus, few cards offer a higher rewards rate on top of this perk.
Another thing - Wells Fargo act funny if you pay too many times a month online (I think over 3 payments blocks you from making online payments for the rest of the statement period), but you can always pay over the automated phone system if you exceed this limit.
FNBO also has a 2% cash back Visa with a pre-qualification link. Might be helpful for those who don't have perfect credit and are unsure if they'll get approved. It even tells you the credit limit they'll pre-qualify you for. I got approved yesterday; it'll be my highest limit card so far.
I went to your LINK, CLICK'd on "Learn More" under "Earn 3% cash back rewards on every dollar you spend", saw this pop up:

Have banked with WF since 2000 and never had an issue. All large companies have issues, a lot have had breach of their systems[upguard.com] resulting in all your personal information being leaked out to folks looking to sell your data on the dark web. That kind of breach has not occurred at Wells Fargo. Their shady retail practices was mostly limited to a region in California if I recall, the company of over 200,000 employees is hardly shady and most I've encountered are nice hard working people. As reported in the news, the CFPB order from 2016 sales practices has ended. The company has underwent an entire change out of senior leaders, none of the folks around during the 2016 scandal are there any more, they've made major changes to their sales practices. They're still mopping up some of the past issues. Give it a break.
Their problems are way more widespread than that and are still onging.

While true, as news has been reported that they have incurred a new fine within the last month for something that happened in 2018, all issues I've read about took place before appointment of their new CEO in 2019. He was also CEO of Visa and Bank of NY Melon prior to Wells Fargo and held leadership positions at JP Morgan Chase prior to that. Also serving as an independent director of Microsoft and appointed by Obama in 2014 as a member of the President's Advisory Council on Financial Capability for Young Americans as quoted from Wikipedia. Most people here likely have a Visa, a lot probably bank at JP Morgan / Bank NY Melon, and use products from Microsoft. So if the thought is that WF is still involved in shady practices, then all those company's probably would be too. However, as no regulations have been sought of Visa or Bank of NY Melon after the CEO's departure, there's no reason to believe he's bringing shady practices from other companies to Wells Fargo, or continuing bad practices or would want his name tied to priors. Rather he is looked at as someone who is believed can right the course of decades of bad upper management.

Lmao, it's a WF employee trying to downplay the magnitude

Simple Google searches reveal all of this and most customers would read to see what is being done to correct issues at the bank they bank with. While you might think it's simple to just drop your bank account, mortgage, credit cards and forklift move to another company for all those things, you're mistaken. Time and money involved there, best thing to do is read, understand and stay alert. Any of the places you prefer could very well be the next scandal. For all you know they're doing scrupulously things right now. But it's kind of like eating at a restaurant that just got hit with a bad report card, they're probably the cleanest joint in town right now because of the added scrutiny.

This USAlliance card doesn't seem like such a good deal without a signup bonus.

Can't be approved for this credit card. Lol
Idk if anyone responded but I had my old platinum card product changed to this Active cash card. Finally a WF cc that is usable.

No $200 promotion bonus. I'm not signing up as a new customer. I value my historical credit transfer more than the $200 bonus that will be taxed.
