Just out of interest.
Why is it that some cards only get an expiry of a year or two, and others from a lot longer. I have BOI Mastercard, and my chip and pin card that I got last year has expiry of 2011 on it. Yet my mum has same card and it's only till '08. What's up with that? We probably spend around the same on it. And my boss for instance only gets her card for about 18 months and then has to get a new one, yet she would have a much bigger limit than mine and would be spending alot more and clearing it completely every month. Who or what decides this?
