Not always but you right. It does sometimes happen. I only bought miles once in my life and it happened to me. I spoke to MP, They got tech Support on the other line & completed my huge purchase of 10K RDM's. Total time in phone - 40 min

I origianally thought it was a bait and switch as well and wrote a furious letter to Corp Cust Care. They called me back the same day (they hate seeing 3 words in a letter if which I used 2 (Fraude, DOT, Racism) use any 2 of those 3 words and you'll get a response. They told me it was a glitch and had MP call me back to complete the purchase

(I'm saving "racism" for a big complaint
