Regarding the Travelocity Credit Card offer through Juniper/Barclays bank, as a veteran of dozens of great bank and credit card offers, this is by far the most misleading convaluted offer I have encountered. You will waste hours of time signing up with Juniper/Barclays Bank and Travelocity and going through incredibly and outrageously complicated web-site logins only to finally find out the advertised "$50 statement credit" is skillfully and outrageously misleading and a FRAUD. You first get points which you MUST redeem at Travelocity. ONLY after you are bounced back-and-forth between Barclays and Travelocity web sites, pages of carefully worded fine print, and customer service phone numbers, will "THEY" finally disclose to you that the purported $50 statement credit is really a 'TRAVEL EXPENSE CREDIT ONLY" redeemable through Travelocity ONLY AFTER YOU HAVE MADE A TRAVEL PURCHASE THROUGH THEM.This is a deceptive offer and a massive waste of time. while the deception is outrageous by itself, I found the whole experience from disclosures so finely printed they can't be read without a large magnifying glass - a MINIMUM statement-received-to-payment-due-date - and their ridiculously complicated SIGNUPS, passwords and codes so offensive, I am returning the credit card and vowing never to do business with Juniper or Barclays or Travelocity - EVER !
And, it's hard to believe they want to charge you an annual fee for all of this nonsense ! I wouldn't pay $1 let alone $29 !!!!!
Stay Away !
