So clear and so user friendly
So clear and so user friendly, like they've thought of everything and programmed it in. The help function is extremely reliable and it's like talking to a person ... they are timely in their responses too. I'm still trying to get familiar with the intricacies of credit card accounts and how to keep everything straight, but so far it's making sense.
