Interesting. Since they came out with Lyft pink and free doordash delivery benefits.

Smh we still end up paying somehow.

Yeah they basically gave me two things I didn’t want and charged me $100. Love the card though and have a ton of points saved up I plan to use on travel

What program are you starting?

Lyfts into Chicago will be pricy so getting 15% off and 10pt/$ will be fairly beneficial

If you spend $300 per year on ride sharing you break even on the fee increase

Better than Uber
