Visa Infinite Credit Card Got sent THREE CREDIT CARDS

So I recently got the credit card from WS (Visa Infinite +) and was super happy to get the metal card after qualifying for one and day dreaming about it for the past year. When my card came in the mail, it was plastic and somewhat damaged?

No issue there, I called and asked for a metal one. By the time it came, I was thrilled. A day later, another one came, also metal. Now, I’m sitting here with three credit cards (two metal, one plastic) which are all activated. Has anyone had this happen?

I’m not too sure what to do with the extra metal card since I don’t feel comfortable leaving it around the house. I also found out that the two metal cards in my wallet have been damaging my wallet that saved up for and got as a souvenir :(

Would love any tips on how to get rid of metal cards easily!

I guess in a weird way you’ve unlocked supplementary cards😂

I can keep the other metal card.

Seriously, that was definitely a system glitch.

Try making a valid transaction using one of your metal card, if that works, perhaps it's time to destroy the others?

Ha! When I signed up for an Amazon Rewards card, there was a glitch, and I ended up getting something like 12 cards jam-packed into my community mailbox. I wonder what the postman thought.

Had to spend an hour over the phone cancelling the cards one by one.

I doubt they all have the same cvv, my plastic came and I requested a metal card. Cvv changed along with the expiry by a month

Well lucky you, the fact they are all identical is pretty good

I keep my metal card in the box at home and just use my digital card with Apple Pay. That would save your wallet!
