The Chime card was really popular for awhile, it had great deals that were similar to AmEx sync deals and you could load it with debit cards. Unfortunately they cut back on who was targeted for deals and added fees for most debit cards that earned rewards/needed to be unloaded. To make matters worse, Chime charges you a $5 fee per month if the card hasn’t been used in 180 days.
A reader recently let me know that they forgot about this card and only noticed when they logged in and saw that they were charged a bunch of fees. I just wanted to remind everybody to make sure to use this card at least once every 180 days to avoid these fees. It’s not all bad news though, it looks like Chime is starting to open new deals to everybody again, so you should check the card regularly to see if there is anything of interest. Travel With Grant regularly posts about these deals, so make sure you follow his blog and him on Twitter if you don’t fancy regularly checking your account. Here are some of the deals they have recently offered:
