what's a good credit card to get with cash-back rewards?
I'm done with my current credit card, so I'm looking for a new one. I don't really care what company it is, as long as it's widely accepted and has cash-back rewards built in.
Help me out!
Thanks.

Although to answer your question, Discover has come good products with cash back, but if you are looking for wider acceptibility, like internationally, go with a citicard, i have even pulled up a link for you http://www.citibank.com/us/cards/car...plat/index.jsp
Edit: In the mean time i wrote this post, ppl have answered ur question exactly like i did, so go with the common verdict !!

Also, when I got my MasterCard, they also said I will hear from them via mail, and they sent me a card within a few days.
"Will hear from us via mail" = declined??

Well maybe you will get it, but most places now will tell you yes as soon as you click submit.

I just don't use the MasterCard and the Discovery cards anymore. The Visa will be cancelled, and that's why I want a new one with good rewards. MasterCard is a GM Card, and I have over a 1,000 dollars in earnings, but I've already decided that I'm not going to be getting another GM, so why not get cashback rewards instead, right?
I hope it goes through. CitiBank's rewards program sounds pretty decent.

for optimal credit score you should only have 2 or 3 credit cards. everytime you open or close one if negatively affects you credit. 
credit scores, youll learn alot.

Not true in most cases

I’ve been burning it up buying building products for the garage remodel.
I’m already due a 79-dollar rewards check.

Oh...and guys...believe it or not, sometimes the machines are down & a real person has to look at the credit, hense the 30 day remark(possibly).
Amex recently turned my GF down(Costco Rewards Card). Her credit is near 800's, has no debt other than a home/car payment and makes a shitload of money...she called them up & someone IMMEDIATELY said it was a 'system error' and shot the card out to her. Apparently, one of the little India-ans made a mistake, but they wouldn't admit it.
