So what bank has the best credit card?

I'm not talking those stupid freebie student cards either. I'm looking for the card with the best rate of redemption. be it travel, cash back, merchandise, whatever. Who offers the best deal?

And who has the most prestigious card? The one that you whip out and try to impress the ho's with?

Not sure which card is the best. But I figure the most prestigious card would go to american express black platinum. Its what the hollywood celebrity uses. Supposely a "no-limit" card...

Be very careful with American Express cards.

Some of their cards are in the 24.99% interest range...

I love AMEX Platinum

It is a bit pricey, but if you use it often, and especially if you fly a lot, the benefits are great and the yearly fee pays for itself 10 fold in benefits.

I have never carried a balance, but Maury is right, if you aren't able to pay it off in full each month, the interest will kill you. Amex has traditionally been a charge card, and not a credit card, and therefore is more condusive to those looking for convenience and rewards as opposed to people who can't really afford something and are trying to defer the payment.
