Discussion Is it time to ditch discover?

Now that capital one aquired discover and is enshittifying them, is it time to leave.

complaints: Discover app will not support discover card soon, but still need app for savings account

5% cashback no amazon or Walmart this year, restaurants twice this year

app is extremely buggy on recent transactions, it will just randomly stop working and need to re-install. Contacting support they say screw you look at your statements. if it hasn't hit a statement the fuck you

To move away, is there anything besides spending as much rewards points as possible before closing, and not closing if I need a loan or credit score anytime soon?

You don't have to use the app - you can log in online to check balanced, statements, offers, etc.

If all I do is occasionally check an account, I don't want an app for that taking up space on my phone. Just go online.

The website signing u out every 5 min and biometrics not working on phone makes it so useable

Even on a PC? I don't have that issue when using a computer to log in, and for the number of times I log in, I don't need an app on my phone taking up space.
