"Customer Service Review"
2 instances of booking travel:
1st instance was good and efficient
2nd instance the service was extremely poor: for example, i did not receive confirm email (only after 3rd request). Then car rental was booked in the wrong city. The first 2 service reps, must have been having bad days as they were not very helpful and did not have a good understanding of customer service.
 
Most attractive feature: *Excellent rewards options *Receive a percentage of your points back when booking travel
Least attractive feature: *Annual fee for additional card

"awards for flights not that great"
For every dollar spent, you get a point, but when you redeem, it's only worth 10% of the points (15000 pts = $150), whereas on other cards, 15000 pts is worth a short haul flight of up to a maximum of $300 or $400.
 
Most attractive feature: The Scotia Concierge service is kind of good.
Least attractive feature: The points you earn are not worth as much as other cards...

"Best all-around card!!"
The major benefit of this card is that unlike other gold rewards cards, redemption of reward points is not subjected to black-outs, seat limits etc. Book any flight or hotel anywhere through their own travel service and redeem 10000 points for a $100 discount. Redemption will also cover taxes as well, unlike some other card reward programs. Plus! you get 5% cashback on all flights charged to the card. WOW!! We charge ~ $50,000 per year on the card giving us $500 in travel savings. If you factor the low annual fee and free supplementary cards this is one card that should not be overlooked!!
 
Most attractive feature: Unrestricted points redeemable for merchandise, flights, hotels.
Least attractive feature: None
