Double Points

unit731 · January 7, 2010

Received in mail - Double Points - or Double Dollars.

Card/letter from GM states that my points will double to $3,000.00 off any/most GM cars trucks.

Anyone else get this.

Expires Feb. 1, 2010.

Another thing to like about the HSBC GM card, the free extended warranty & accident insurance most people are clueless about.

Which gmcard do u have? I never heard of them offering that?

Beware of GM card! Or more specifically, beware of HSBC Card Services!

I had one, they claimed a fraudulent charge had been made on my card (it was actually a charge I made, completely legitimately) and would not un-freeze my account. They demanded I send a copy of my drivers' license to them via mail to a random PO Box before they'd help me.

Yes, I did verify it was actually them making the request, not a scam. I ended up doing battle with them to get them to close my account completely because I refused to send them personal documents via mail (privacy/security risk BIG TIME).

If it were me, I'd cancel your card before they get you too! My mom had a similar problem with her GM Card a few months after I had a problem with mine, so it would seem it is common practice for HSBC and the Indians at their call center to screw with people.

Worst part is that both of us were paying off the balance on the card in full every month (only used the card to buy gas with)

Their security is kind of tight. I have had the card for over 15 years. Only one issue - last year. Driving from Phoenix to Orlando. Got to northern Florida -and card would not work. I used the card for gas, soda, etc. on this trip. I waited a couple days then telephoned customer service. They had canceled card and stated charges looked suspicious. They mailed me a new card at address of record. No other issues.

I got $3,000.00 in points this time. I see others must have a different card to get more $$ in points.

What GM card gets the best points?
