Silly Visa rewards Card Questions About This Page:

[MindibellCM]

How do you set up your utilities to be paid from the Disney Visa card? I have it paid by my bank right now?

I just got a special offer to get 5x the rewards after $750 on certain items. How do you know which locations will go towards it? Like does Kroger go towards groceries and gasoline?

Thanks for your help.

AFAIK, to set up payments directly to your CC for utilities, I believe you contact the utilities. I don't do that so if I'm wrong someone will correct me. As far as the bonus points, it depends upon what the stores themselves are identified as at the CC company. For example, my hairdresser for some reason is considered a dining establishment but Walmart which to me is a department store is considered a discount store. PriceRight, which is a discount store, is considered a grocery store. For you, I can't see Kroger's not being considered a grocery store but the only way you'll really know is to call the number on the back of your credit card and listen to the recent transactions. It will say a charge of such and such an amount at a such and such place.

I'd contact the utility companies directly and ask. My local gas/electric participates through an on-line service and I *cannot* use a credit card to pay.

My local utilities do not allow credit card payments. I do use it for DD12's cell phone, our auto insurance, Direct TV bill, and AT&T home phone. Those were all set up through the indiviual company websites. As far as the 5x spending on restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations. You will get the 5x points approximatly 6 weeks after the promotion is over, and it's picky which will count as 5x' points. Gas stations have to bill as gas stations. For grocery stores, Kroger will work, Walmart and Target no. Those are billed as Superstores, not grocery stores.

Glad to hear the Kroger will work. They are offering that 10% back on gift cards up to $1200. I may just got purchase a large gift card with my Disney card and then I will get the extra 5x!
