They use the card only for utilities and say the rewards reliably pay out, but merchant category coding can be unreliable, and they would not trust other categories such as electronics or clothing stores.

They use the Cash+ for subscriptions, internet and utilities with Real-Time Rewards, but noticed the redemption value quietly dropped. Statement credit remains one to one, so they treat it as a minor annoyance.

They have held the Cash+ for about two and a half years; the app often shows a 1% earn rate on utilities and streaming, but the rewards actually credited are correct.

They hold two of these cards covering utilities, furniture, internet and mobile phone, but their electric company changed payment processors and no longer codes as a utility, so only their water bill earns the bonus.

They say the Cash+ redeems 1:1 as a statement credit, unlike Altitude cards, and tolerate the redemption minimum given their high utility bills.

It's how well reviewed U.S. Bank Cash+ Visa Signature is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a product needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed products here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
