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.

Did you receive yours? I've also been waiting.

I applied last week. While waiting for the card, I created online login and added the card via WF app to samsung pay/ paypal and I have been using it

Anybody facing issues to get the $200 joining bonus? Mine the customer care told you either get a 0% APR or $200. Is that correct?

Not true. It still shows both parts of the promo ($200 Bonus + 0%) on their website. You should receive the bonus automatically on the next billing statement after reaching the $1,000 purchase threshold.

What type of purchases did you make?

But they didn't just do shady stuff 1 year. It's happened many times the last decade. I'd never trust them.

We have had unlimited 2% on everything in market for too long. Who is going to be first to offer unlimited 3% on everything?!

PayPal card can on most purchases

I've been keeping an eye on that card. Does it ever have a sign-up bonus?

They refuse to give me my 200.00 bonus because I don't carry a balance. What a scam. Do not apply for this card.

Sorry Wells Fargo - but you still suffer from a lack of trust...

Have had this card for about a month and have had a few hiccups with purchases online. Sometimes it registers as fraud when I'm ordering chipotle. Sometimes it doesn't work online. Never had this problem with other cards. Asked for a call back to address these things which they have not done. Patience running thin with this. Not sure I'll be keeping this card much longer unless this stuff gets cleaned up.

Does anyone know if they issue a tax document to report the 200 bonus? Can't find anything on their site. Appreciate any link informing if it's taxable

Usually, these card bonuses are treated the same way as cashback which is a discount in the eyes of the IRS, so you won't get taxed on that.
Checking/savings bank account opening bonuses are different and count as interest income, so you'll get a 1099-INT the next January
