    Credit card companies must have the best lawyers on their payroll because the methods used to advertise any given card are SO deceitful. Example: airport lounge pass to over 2300 lounges. PASS is the key word which implies FREE ENTRY but there IS an entry fee per member AND per guest. If 4 people enter a lounge and pay $32 each they’re better off to eat a $32 meal at any decent restaurant!!!
