    I saw that many people were interested in "cool" credit cards....

    I think the MOST UNCOOL card is my FCNB Mastercard. It has some cheap ass artwork with a stupid column of sorts - and proudly displays
    FIRST CONSUMERS National Bank.

    It has never been used in public as long as I have had it. I leave it in that sock drawer - except for making a purchase a month or two back so they would show it as active to the FDIC....

    My most uncool card was my Cross Country Visa. The card was never used when human transaction was necessary. LOL Only online, over the phone or pay at the pump.
    I think it was some nasty greenish blue color. I'm so glad I don't have that card anymore. :-D

    I had a yellow Aria card, FCNB mastercard and a bright green leaf Orchard Bank mastercard. When I presented any of these cards for payment I use to hand it to the cashier face down. I have closed the above mentioned cards because I have better cards with no annual fee, good terms, and higher credit lines.

    The NEW Home Depot cards are FUGLY.

    My old FNANB was pretty ugly too - but the new one (Platinum) is pretty cool.

    The Discover Flag card is waring thin on me too.

    Amex Green is ugly compared to the new ones being issued in the UK (http://www10.americanexpress.com/sif/cda/page/0,1641,11971,00.asp)

    My Fleet MasterCard is about as plain & boring as it gets - the new Visa design is much cooler.

    That's about all I can think of-

    When Aria changed, I added my hubby. They then sent us new Classic Visa cards...nice looking, deep blue with silver writing! And, I got rid of the ugly Aria card! They are still ugly for their interest rate, though (paying them off this week...yahoo!)

    I vote for the KMARt - Martha Stewart card (issued by Merrill Lynch).

    It's issued for a Bankrupt Company by Crooked Brokers for Inside Traders only!!

    My General Electric MC from F USA is ugly, but it has pretty good interest rates. It is one of those cards that I only use for phone/mailorder purchases becasue I like the look of my other cards much more.

    I definatly think all of the KMART capital one cards are the worst. I had to turn it over to use it, its that bad. LOL. Its embarrassing to whip it out of my wallet. It made me not want to go shopping for once. haha

    I have cut them up, I had a blue one, AND Gold. You know the sales people laugh when you leave, thats how I felt.

    Embarrassing. Totally embarrassing.

    The Bankfirst "platinum" card is quite ugly. It's dull gray, with cheesy artwork on one side of the card above the mc logo.

    The C1 "fake" platinum cards are pretty boring as well.
