Seeing the World in a Weekend – Cairo, Egypt

There’s obviously a debate as to whether it’s safe to travel to Egypt right now, but from all the reports we read prior to our trip, violence had subsided and the country is encouraging tourists to return.

Do You Lose Your Points When You Cancel A Credit Card?

I'm often asked if you lose your points when you cancel your credit card. I can understand the confusion, since the rules do vary based on the type of card.

Furthermore, I've heard of some credit card issuers incorrectly threatening that cardmembers will lose their points, even when it isn't true.

Generally speaking the rules vary based on the type of card you're earning points with. It depends on whether it's a program specific card or a bank rewards card (a card accruing points with Membership Rewards, Ultimate Rewards, Citi ThankYou, etc.).
