I was approved for a Uber Visa Credit Card and after being a member for a month, Im just finding out that they dont offer cardholders a purchase alert option? Im so used to have that alert with capital one mastercard and assumed all credit cards had that option but I see that I was wrong. The only purchase alert they have is by email and its not even instant since it comes within 24 hours

I was just praising this card last week and now find out the card is not really all that great.

24 hours is better than none, eh?

I like the alert before I walk out the store or if Im home 1 min after I hit submit when ordering delivery

Can't trust any purchases anywhere? Use cash.

No interest on cash. Easy to track. Once it's gone, it's gone.

Cash Back rewards is why I prefer credit cards over cash. I enjoy saying these things when I am inside a store
