Why would MasterCard issue me a new card a year before the expiration date?

Asked by Jeruba (55839points) August 8th, 2012

The number didn’t change, only the expiration date: from 9/13 to 9/14.

There was no accompanying explanation such as we’ve seen before, telling us that their records had been “compromised” and so we had to have a new card number.

We did not report a loss. We did not make a major purchase. We didn’t do anything weird.

Rather, they enclosed a nonexplanatory message telling us about the “great perks” of using this card.

What are they up to?
