Customer Support:

Customer support for Miles by Discover Card is available via phone and through an online FAQ database. Email support is available to registered users (although you must already be a card holder to register at the site).

When we called Discover's phone support via the toll-free number, the system kept asking us for our account number. After continuously pressing buttons, we were finally put on hold to speak with a live representative. Our hold time was approximately five minutes. The rep was able to answer our questions, although it seemed more like a mechanical response in regards to the answers we received.

Upside:

Opportunities for bonus miles, no annual fee, 25-day grace period.

Downside:

It was difficult to find any downsides with this card! Ok, a looping telephone customer support line.
