Corvette Mastercard is a SCAM!
As some know, there is a Corvette Pin promotion going on. The only way to get all four pins is to apply for a Corvette Mastercard and make a purchase. Details can be found at: https://www.corvette50thanniversary.com/news/ind_news_pins.asp
Well I did this last December and have been waiting impatiently for them. I have called several times and did not get a clear answer until today. Today I was told by a supervisor that "we're out of them and no one will be getting the pins." I asked her if she knew Corvette Mastercard was still advertising that you would receive the pins by applying for their credit card and she replied "Yes I know. I need to see about getting that changed."
If you have applied for a card and are waiting for the pins, this is the scoop. I immediately cancelled the card and made a complaint with the better business bureau. I would encourage you to do the same.
:mad :cuss :smash:

FWIW: I applied to the card, got the 03 pin and gave it to Arisa who is collecting that stuff.
It may be poor planning but it wasn't a scam.
