Wells Fargo Platinum Credit Card is a great card which also allows you to design your own card. I used to keep all my checking and savings account in Wells Fargo, but I moved my accounts to another bank leaving this card as my only connection to the bank. Over the years I never had any major issues with this card other than less than satisfactory customer service, but how often do you need that any way. I have very low APR for this card, which is the main reason why I still hold on to it.

I signed up for this credit card immediately after setting up my college checking and savings accounts at Wells Fargo. They allowed me to choose the date of my payments which was very beneficial and I have had no troubles paying my card on time. Online banking is 24/7 so I've been able to keep up with my spending easily. The 1% doesn't seem like much, but the amount adds up faster than you expect if you use your card regularly. After just two years of membership Wells Fargo upgraded my account giving me more credit and a lower interest rate which is fantastic.

This was the first credit card I signed up for before I started college and it is still my primary one. I started off with an average limit and it has risen over the years to a great extent which is very convenient in case of emergencies or expensive purchases. The interest rates and the minimum payment each month are fair. I also have the Wells Fargo rewards program linked to this credit card which allows me to get cash back and reward points which makes using it even better. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my card.

I first got this credit card when I started college and like most college students with a very low income I did not know how to budget my finances and ended up maxing out my card within a couple of months. Thankfully after landing a great job, months of payments, and a great tax-return I was able to pay off my balance. Now I use my card for my regular monthly bills and make timely payments. I've never had any many issues and have been a long time customer with Wells Fargo. They've raised my credit limit multiple times which is great for my overall credit score, but I'm determined to never again max out on my limit. I really enjoy the rewards program and have a fun picture of my godson when he was a baby that I got to design for free!

I opened this card many years ago when I was first opening my checking account with Wells Fargo. Though I recently moved my account to a credit union, it was very convenient to have this card connected to my checking account. It allowed me to automatically pay my bill easily, which has been an issue for me with some other cards I have. I was also able to link it with my checking account to provide overdraft protection, though if you use it for that purpose you pay the much higher cash advance interest rates. They have consistently raised my credit limit as I established my credit, though like some other users here have commented my interest rate has not budged in ten years. One other fun feature is that you can design your own card with your own photos, I have gotten a lot of compliments on my card.

This was my first credit card, and I've never had any issues with it. I was pretty hesitant to take out a credit card just because I didn't really need or want one. I was persuaded to take apply for the card by one of the employees at the bank. I like the convenience of having it linked to my regular checking account. It is incredibly simple for me to transfer money from that checking account to pay the monthly bill. I don't regret taking this opportunity to build credit while finishing school. I've never had any serious negative issues, and hopefully it will remain that way. I would recommend this card to anyone who has a checking account with Wells Fargo.

I signed up for this credit card to begin building credit when I had started college. At the beginning, it was great. I have never had a problem with the customer service on the card, or with experiencing fees. However, my opinion of this card has recently changed. I have had this card with Wells Fargo for four years, and have never missed a payment or made a late payment, and my APR continues to be at 24.99%. I faxed a request to the executive office, asking that my APR be lowered considering my good standing with Wells Fargo (as I have other accounts with them) and excellent credit, and they have refused to lower the APR. I liked that Wells Fargo helped me to establish my credit, but since they will not lower my APR based on my credit, I am changing credit cards.

The Wells Fargo Platinum credit card is great, when I was just starting college my grandma added me to her credit card to help assist with school needs. Now I have had it about ten years and love it. The interest is not too bad for what you are using the card for and I have never had problems with customer service. Any time something didn’t look right on the card I could call and get the information that I needed to clear up the matter. Also what is great is that you get rewards for what you spend, so every so often I go in and check my rewards and I am able to get gift cards, travel vouchers, and even money added to your account. My credit on this card has gone up over there years which has really helped me out, I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have a Wells Fargo Credit Card.

This is an OK credit card to have. I signed up for this because I have a checking and saving account with Wells Fargo. Nothing-fancy going on with the card, just very basic features with no rewards programs and higher then average interest rates and fees. Get this card if you can’t get approved for any others. Competitors offer much better interest rates and incentives. I do regret signing up for this, not because it is a terrible card, but because compared to what is out there this is at the very bottom of the pack. Also watch out for free trial offers for other products they try to get you to sign up for, they are not free and will cause a lot of confusion when you try and dispute the charge, as you will talk to a totally different person who doesn’t know what they offered.

I signed up for this credit card when I got my first job at a retail store. I was then living with my parents and was saving some money earned from my job as well. For the first six months, the card was interest free so I didn't have to worry about paying more than the price of my purchases. I like the services Wells Fargo provides me with this credit card and find the online features very useful for bill pay, card payment, account balance etc. Because this is my first credit card, I try to use it responsibly so as to not accrue any fees and ensure that my credit score improves. Overall I can attest that its a good service Wells Fargo provides.
