I love credit cards so much! v3.0 (see first page for add'l details)

How long are you all waiting to contact Amex if the Small Business credit didn't post? I made sure to check the small business map.

Amex email says to allow 90 days for the credit to post

Can I ask what your math is? I'm dividing $229.06 by 117 = 1.95777777
then multiply that by 365 = $714.68 -

this is what I was using, I was figuring about $700 for the gold after tax, couldn't remember exactly how much ours were. But yeah, I did not factor in the blackout days.

After being stuck with all of these Qantas points, I am the proud owner of a CS Platinum so I can cash out my MRs for real money. I have almost 500k of useless kangaroo points. Hopefully we will be able to score kangaroo tickets again.

When I upgraded to the annual pass it was $699 plus tax at 6.5% = $744.43. I upgraded a hopper pass that I paid just under $400 for and paid an additional $276 (approx) with a gift card. It bridged to the $744.43.

I've played with it every which way and I can't make it come out to the exact $ but based on use, I'm happy. Closest is $714.68 plus 31.32 for blackout = $746. Or, it could be $714.68 plus 15 days of use ($29.36) = $744.04

Is there any way to check on my Chase account when those points were awarded? It could have been January when the points were awarded, meaning that the MDD wouldn't work (payments are due at the end of January).

GASP!! Your super detailed spreadsheet should tell you this...

Check your statements.

Also a good idea...

...the exact date should be the closing date of that statement. In the future, this would be a handy thing to have on your spreadsheet.

Spreadsheet for the win!!!

@Oscar Madison - I just made 2 reservations, one for a package and the other for a room only (doing a split stay). Both seem to have coded as travel.

Y’all are right! I think I was completely confused. I just checked a RO reservation I made using the CSR and it did code as travel. Sorry @Oscar Madison to give you incorrect info!

Congratulations!
I hear you on the points. We are now stuck with tons of Flying Blue points and no trips planned.

No. I don't think so. When you requested your refund (if I remember correctly) your pass was either expired or almost expired. Didn't you post that you asked for cancellation? It seems that may be what they did? Have you renewed your passes? That would be a whole different ballgame. I think you are ahead of the game for NOT renewing, actually canceling, getting a refund for the days you qualify for and waiting until you feel safe visiting with your baby. Unless that you are planning on going in August, you are ahead right now. Your refund will show sooner or later.

Yeah when we asked to cancel our passes they were going to expire in about 30 days give or take. We did not renew them because when this all started in March we knew we most likely wouldn’t be taking him to the parks for the rest of the year. I honestly don’t know when we’ll feel safe to take him again. We’re hoping for next April for his birthday but that’s a long time from now.

I would just like to announce that I am getting 2x the URs on my purchases of soda from the vending machine at work on this little workhorse of a CSP.

Aren't you all jealous? Those $0.75 purchases are gonna add up QUICKLY!

Tons of United miles here. Group hug.

eta: I guess my @Alexle2007 quote didn’t make it in here for the group hug so adding a tag. Lol

I'll join the hug. Lots of useless United points, a companion pass I won't be using and a significant number of AA as well.

200K VS miles! Woot!

I cancelled my aa citi biz card this morning by chat. CSR said miles expire after 18 months. Is that 18 months from today or 18 months from the last time I used or made miles?

Check your statements.

You can see all your statements online, 7 years worth.

Thanks so much for your help. Points were on my statement that closed on December 14, 2016. Does that mean that I can apply on December 15th? That might be too late, as we are having friends pick up our mail twice per week and courier to Toronto once per month. I will have to give the DD some thought; could I just go for the CSP then upgrade back to the CSR during the year?

18 months from last activity.
